first of all, i wish i had had time to get to know her better. i know she has a ton of cool stories, because she’s an adventurer and a doer. she doesn’t just talk about shit, she does it. i have always felt that she is simply GENUINE; she smiles all the time, which reminds me to smile. i may be…

Ali and Thomas, you guys are UH-dorable!! I just BARELY saw this. Ali’s enormously flattering and validating soul-spillage could have been lost into the tumblr abyss indefinitely if it weren’t for Thomas’s reblog. And that would have been okay, but I am so glad it didn’t happen because this hits the top of the list for making me feel genuinely good and worthwhile. Graduation is full of “good jobs” and “proud of yous,” but real, thoughtful stuff like this just makes my heart melt. (This, plus Jack who came up to me after graduation and thanked me for my speech and what I said in it about his buddy Bishop.) Top memories, hands down. I could just explode with gratitude right now! Top of the world, man, top of the world.
Thank you, Ali. I hope you never lose the courage to compliment and be inspired because it really matters. Tons ‘o love<3
