No Ordinary Helenism,

my first "friend" ever in Canada! i see you've got a rather large following of people who adore you for some reason. i don't know why!? ;) You know i'm just teasin. it's been a loong time and really, i'm not gonna blow up your ego with a bunch of nice lines here and there. i already know you're an intelligent young lady and probably one of the kindest people around..ahh shoot, there i go blowin up your ego! but you are down-to-earth, so really..your ego can't be blowin up..so you're probably gonna stay grounded like a boeing737 in a winterstorm..but you've got to admit, a smile has cracked it's way through your lips and has now stretched from corner to corner of your mouth. enjoy it like coco-cola! oops, no AD placings. my uncontrollable rambling will stop right period

I could have sworn i made a photo comment, but anywho....HELENA man you probably don't realise the lasting impact you left on me, when i met you. To have a total stranger completely support you, is just the most beautiful feeling, i will always remember the way you smiled throughout my performance and took the time to encourage me to continue, thank you so much for the love and support, means more than you will eva know. You are truely a sweet heart and i just thought everyone should know if they didn't already.
much love yo new friend Hermona

helen, helen, helen...what can i say about this sister in spirit of mine? not only is she gorgeous, but her maturity and her deep insight into a person's essence never ceases to amaze me (if you have any secrets, watch out people because she'll get them out of you). this girl taught me all i know about self-awareness...although a lot of that was spent in ways i cant mention here or she'd kill me! (you know what i'm talkng about helen - 3rd year, my tiny ass apartment, feeding you peanut butter sandwich for dinner):). peace. sophie
