Let me start off by saying that I would’ve put a picture of both of us, but this day is about him.  This guy (in the picture above) is a blessing from the heavens, although he doesn’t look like it (just kidding).  He hates celebrating his birthday and doesn’t even like talking about it, but he deserves it.  Honestly, he’s an awkward guy, but I’m an awkward girl so we’re awkward together.  He has been that friend that I can vibe with and share stupid jokes with.  Yeah, he was that friend.  The friend that when you look at him, you wonder, “What the hell are you doing?”  But again, that was something so fun about him because he kept things so interesting.  I can’t exactly pinpoint why he’s one of the greatest guys I know.  Maybe it’s the fact that his jokes are incredibly dumb, but funny.  Or maybe it’s because he goes out of way to make things right when they go wrong.  I never met anyone in my life who cares as much as he does.  He puts everyone before himself, and to those who are friends with him and are reading this, you know it’s true.  He’s not perfect.  He makes mistakes like everyone else, but at the end of the day, there are no regrets.  There’s no other guy out there that will have an hour long conversation about cheese puns and spit tapioca balls in my face that it starts a war.  He has surprised me in so many ways that even after knowing him for awhile, it’s definitely worth getting to know him more.  And I’m excited for it.  

Happy 19th Birthday, Brandon.  I wish I could be with you today, but I’m stuck at school.  Thanks for making these past months the greatest.
