Love You Like A Sister

Funny how people meet sometimes? 

Sometimes you know you are meant to be friends with someone.

Sometimes you may think you REALLY hate and can't stand a person but you are probably wrong.

Sometimes you end up being forced to talk to that person and even though you hate to admit it you are becoming friends.

Where am I going with this you might ask?

Well I'm gunna tell you a little story....

One time (last year in September) I was "seeing" a guy. Using the word seeing very loosely. Details not necessary.  I thought he was cool guy. I hadn't know him long at all but he seemed fun so I was going with it. 

Then one day I was at his house and his mom came downstairs (I hadn't met his parents yet) and this boy was on the phone. She walked up to me extended her hand and crushed me with these worlds 

"Oh you must be Amber!"

Ya no I am not Amber.

Amber was a girl in our ward. I mean I could see how you would get us confused. Amber had uber blonde hair, blue eyes, and weighs about 30 lbs less than me... I totally see how she could get us mixed up...

As soon as the boy was off the phone he tried to dig himself out of the crater size hole his mother had dug for him BUT needless to say that about ended things with that guy! 

And it started my annoyance with this girl Amber. I had never spoken to her but I "knew" I wouldn't like her even if I did. About a month after the whole mistaken identity incident somehow I found myself sitting next to the real Amber at Boston Pizza. I know you feel my pain! So there we are sitting next to each other and I decide that the least we can be is frenemies. For those of you who don't know what that is the urban dictionary definition is enemies in secret yet friends to everyone else. 

So we started talking. Everything was going fine, turns out I could stand her. Then she dropped the bomb and started to bring up "the guy". Well turns out "the guy" was seeing both of us at the same time. Yep, can anyone say playa? We started comparing stories and couldn't believe some of the things we found out! Well that about did it. We sort of become friends with out the enemies after that. And then you could tack best on top of the friends.

Turns out Amber is sort of like my soul sister. We are alike in so many ways it sort of freaks me out sometimes. There are so many things I love that she loves too...

-our joint obsession with reality TV about rich women who get botox and have bottomless credit cards and have the ability to start drama anytime anywhere

- acapella music groups

-our hate for Megan's Indie tunes

- red nail polish

- love of being in love

- chick flicks

- hair extensions

- the 5 dollar movie bins at Walmart

-watching total strangers engagement and wedding videos

- clean shaven and short haired men

-we both hate school and homework
-we both get along with boys better than with girls

-we both secretly wish we were more like Martha Steward but know it will never happen

....and the list could go on and on!

Anyway I just love Amber to death! So much so that I moved in with her! Being roommates has been so much fun and I am so glad I got over myself and became friends with her! It is her 21st birthday today and I just wanted to make sure she knew how much I love and appreciate her! 

HAPPY BIRTHDAY AMBER DAWN ZOBELL!

oh and we both sort of like taking pictures... like the one time we did a photo shoot with just us....

You can see how the mother could have been confused!

I love this pictures. One of my favorites.

The Birthday Girl!

We are also both SO awkward sometimes...
She is going to kill me for putting this up!
I look like the ecstasy is finally kicking in and she looks like a linebacker!
A perfect match really....
