She's stunning, she's serving, and she's never been more excited for a day not about her!

She's my longest friend, been in two pictures together in the last decade, and the national traveler for the weekend!

She's our international star, dancing queen, and knows more reality television than you can imagine!

She's the first Gabriele to speak to me, can get down to any country music, and is most likely to have someone's birthday gift six months ahead of time!

She's the biggest Pat McAfee fan, all things football expert, and the biggest Taylor Swift fan in the group!

Followed in his footsteps in everything but running and AP classes. He operated the walkie-talkie on our walk home from school, built our snow forts, and infamously played a PG movie while babysitting his younger siblings (We Are Marshall).

Despite being three years younger, Trent taught me how to shave. Has worn the Blue collar proudly for 10 years. Bravely fighting a twenty-one year battle with the taste of tomatoes. Thanks for the truck, Roll Thunder.

After the most awkward handshake meeting at a Glenbard West track meet, it wasn't long before I knew we would be roommates. Scary good at impersonations, prefers his espresso beans to be rinsed down the sink, and can function on virtually no sleep better than anyone I know.

Eli was my teammate for 8 years. He is the best person to organize a pickup game of any sport. Loses humbly, thinks 2+ hour movies are "normal length," and has celebrity status at Carol Stream's finest establishment: Red Apple. Falcons Fly High.

We were on the same Wheaton football visit, in the same position group, with the same major... wildly different weight class. Loyal Catan ally, always in for a late-night T-bell run, and will talk about Wheaton football more than anyone on the planet. Paul deserves some recognition here for steering this relationship to the "talking" stage.
