aka Alessandra "ollie" Horii

hands-down the best friend [that's a girl] i had during my time at UCSB; and that's definitely no easy task as i'm a handful to deal with...but i'm thankful/grateful/blessed to be one of her friends. her unending kindness, devotion to growth in her walk, quality of conversation, frank humor, love for food and overall openness are only the start of an endless list of amazing qualities that i cherish endearingly. the joyful ability to entertain me while i procrastinated on every single assignment i was ever given during my 4 year tour of santa barbara is something i will never forget, especially staying up wayyyy too late and talking about nonsense -a favorite memory of mine: when eunice and I were over and an infamous late night talk developed and we had church the next day...and ollie had to drive some freshmen and so we had to go to early service...actually it might've been regular 11 o clock...but before we got to this person's dorm, as we were delusional in the car, she was like, "oh man, i'm so tired, i'll make you cookies if you don't go to church." hahahahaha i think the fact that cookies being offered as a bribe for our laziness was the crown jewel as eunice and I slept in the overflow room @reality that morning [ollie, obv, paid attention during service (actually cares)]. i definitely hit the college jackpot with a friend like ollie and it just goes to show you that God has mercy on the foolish things in this world.

i love you ollie.
