No clever titles here, this one's to Liz

This post turned out to be one of those things that I drafted and just never published. I was going through a tough time and I really needed to tell my best friend something. I never did, and I sometimes wonder how things could've been.

Do you want to know why I honestly don't think I'm going to fail anymore? Not because I think I studied or that I think I'm ready. Because every, single one of those times you said that I would 'be fine and do great' had finally sunk in. Now I know I won't fail and that's entirely because you think I won't.

I know I think I do, but I know I don't really have a knack for saying things that really make an impact on people so for what it's worth, from me: Don't think you'll fail... because I think you won't either.

I don't tell you enough and I probably don't show it enough how much I truly appreciate you. And even though there's going to be half a country between us this fall, I promise to keep reminding you how huge a part you are in my life. To think, of all the places, of all of Canada, we had to move to here to get to know one another. No matter what happens down the road, just remember we'll always have Fort Smith.

(Did you get my Casablanca reference?? "Of all the gin joints, in all the world..." and "We'll always have Paris..." Haha!)

I love you, you're my best friend and you'd best not forget it!

P.S. - If I didn't give this to you before the exam, feel free to hit me.
