32/365, Erin Alexandra M.

Her capacity to give of herself amazes. Her sense of humour is wickedly awesome. She is beautiful inside and out. Now, how do I convince her of this? I love her to bits.

31/365, Judy T.

She's very much like a friend of mine and I can see how she might put others off since Greens do that. She's teaching me to build things from clay and challenging me.

30/365, Fairuz E.

Motivated, ambitious, and has plans and the ability to get everything she wants in life. I used to envy her focus and drive, but now I'm just happy for her happiness and success.

29/365, Miss Watch

My kindergarten teacher in Edmonton was so very pretty. I don't know that I ever learned anything and I was horrible at the memory game, but she was so pretty and so nice.

28/365, Kari M.

We watched at least part of Poltergeist together in grade two. Her grandma taught her to sing at her full volume when she was young. Even when we weren't friends, she was kind.

27/365, Tara S.

Out of those sixty fellow students, why do I remember Tara? Was her genuine beautiful smile? Her seemingly effortless confidence? That she played the flute? I don't know, but she seemed almost perfect.

26/365, Gerald

This man is full of self-righteous rage and I was on the receiving end for a while. He thought me a stupid, weak woman that he could walk allover. I don't like him.

25/365, Melissa H.

What do you say to a girl whom you watch give birth the first time you meet? It sure did make an impression. Heh. Funny girl. I don't think I'll ever do that.

24/365, Malcolm M.

I love this man. I don't know how else to sum up how awesome he is. He's funny, charming, intelligent, shares his passions, and doesn't know his true worth. A greatly treasured friend.

23/365, Patricia M.

Don't worry, I've done this before. She was my second mom in Calgary when I felt quite out of place. Her home was always open to me. Her wit is sharper than most.

22/365, Paul C.

At his core, I believe he is a good person. The layers of negativity that he is wrapped in may never peel back enough for that goodness to come full into the light.

21/365, Sharon S.

I was told not to get on her bad side and I almost did. She's been through a lot and stands strong in herself and has wonderful children to support her. Go getter.

20/365, Sarah Bl.

A new young colleague. She has a heart of gold but can come across as quite selfish and possibly even mean. She has lots to learn, but looking fabulous isn't one of them.

19/365, John Bru.

High school science intern. He was ultimately the link to my future. Sweet, nerdy, and funny. Romeo and Juliet lay dead on the floor in a pool of water. How did they die?

18/365, David H.

I am proud to count him among my friends. If I remember correctly, he has a judge in his head that weighs all decisions. That differs only slightly from my board of directors.

17/365, Michael S.

Complicated and not. I need lots of contradictory sentences to describe him. I would never ask him a question to which I did not want an honest answer. You have to meet him.

16/365, Lloyd A.

Owner of the corner store near where I grew up, I was always conscious of his watchful eye. He counted out one hundred Swedish Berries for me more times than I can remember.

15/365, Rene C. (nee H.)

She was one of the kindest them, but something happened. Then she became better than me and was ignored. She was always one of my favourites then. I wish I knew what changed.

14/365, Mariano

My first ICQ random chat buddy. I talked to him for years sporadically. The last time we spoke, he reminded about the ideals of love. I would like to thank him for that.

13/365, Kurt Adam T. (nee H.)

I wrote our initials in my high school bathroom long after I was a student there. My first love who taught me a lot about relationships and myself. I still respect him tons.

12/365, Cristeen P.

She was the hairdresser for my wedding. We hit it off right away. And then she told me that she was moving to reunite with her husband. It gave me goosebumps of joy.

11/365, Elaine T.

An angel to my mom for a while. She loves to laugh and have others laugh with her. She and my mom laughed instead of singing at RockBand when we first got it.

10/365, Joanne R.

Great hostess of a fabulous Hallowe'en party who wanted to paint my husband's and my portrait as Edwardian zombies for her art class. And now we are spending quality time with her cats.

9/365, Zoey Nicole E.

So much like me. Oodles still for her to learn and teach everyone around her. She holds the power of happiness in a hug and sadness in withholding one. First unconditional baby love.

8/365, Cindy Marie T.

Grades 7 and 8 were easier and harder with her help. We shared a best friend pendant that broke in half. Funny and very nice. I thought I knew her, but I didn't.

7/365, Agnes P.

She knows how much I weigh and makes me accountable for it. She cannot make me healthy or skinny, but she points me in the right direction again. I have to listen now.

6/365, Robert M.

Intense, loyal, tough, and vulnerable. Complex and worth every bit of time and energy invested in the friendship. Funny and fun to be with. More good-hearted than many might guess from the outside.

5/365, Allison Heather S.

Free spirited with squirrels on her shoes. Being able to be around her at work was a blessing to keep dwindling spirits up. Awesome tattoo that I can't recall. Fantastic sense of humour.

4/365, Linden Suzanne C.

She gave me my best friend. She is smart, knowledgeable, adventurous, and inspiring. Her past is nothing like what I would have imagined. To live passionately for my ideals is worth the sacrifices.

3/365, Regina T.

She smiles genuinely and disarmingly. She told me once that Misha's energy was present to help me when I needed it. I will always treasure that. She helps me to be at peace.
