Love ya,
Your Chicago best friend Stacey :)
the last drops of Seattle rain and brought with
him his sunny California disposition. This man is
bursting with positive energy. Anyone want a
dose of that? WARNING: can be lethal, take in
moderation! ;-)
about it sometime.
everything he does, which, as a
generally apathetic and unmotivated
bastard, I think is pretty darn cool.
Starbucks, at some ungodly hour of 4:30
or somesuch and the gang that this boy
belonged to came over to harass and
embarass me in front of many people
since they hadn't gone to sleep yet...
I think I remember Neil pressing his
little face to the windows to further
the embarassment. Neil also likes The
Smoking Popes, so in that respect we're
almost like brother and sister. In
other respects maybe not, but he's
still one sassy guy!
is a great, rare quality. Get to know him
now, before he becomes famous for
revolutionizing linguistic theory! Then you
can hit him up for money.
nice dude... and it was cool that we
both ended up at Berkeley. But most
impressed upon me are Neil's creative
abilities. When I think back, Neil was
always doing sick-ass drawings in
class. And now he's totally busting out
and following his passion, and that is
one of the coolest things you can
experience with people you've known for
a really long time: to see them succeed
at what they love. Rock on Neil, I'm
really glad to still know ya!
