dear rachel



this is rachel recker.
she moved to seattle in september to nanny, and became my best friend. rachel went to art school and challenged me to think differently.

this is the kind of friend you can count on to be there for you, and the one who will totally kick your ass if you are being an ass. this is the kind of friendship were you can go out and have a great time, or sit in silence together. this is the kind of friendship where you can spend every day together and not drive each other insane, it's really hard to find a friend like that.

last week she moved to georgia for the summer to be a camp counselor with her brother. (who i decided i want to marry) after the summer is over she is moving to china for a year to teach art and english. hopefully after that she will be back in seattle.





we went to shows together....a lot
the blakes (twice)
angels and airwaves
shim (twice)
thunderbird motel (um lots)
thee emergency (twice)
the hands
the submarines
bell x1








we played at the park together


we bouldered together (rock climbed)
we ate sushi a lot
we cooked together
we watched movies together
we went salsa dancing





she is my best friend and i miss her dearly.
