Katie Yuki – Best Friend
(Equivalent to best man).
Katie and I were always meant to be close friends. After we heard good things about each other through a mutual friend, we both decided to send the other person MySpace messages simultaneously as if our minds had connected across an ocean, and thus started a friendship that was marked in the stars. Like most of my close friendships she is someone I can have fun with and talk about deep and emotional things as well, but I feel like we have an understanding and mutual love that is somehow more profound. We were best friends so quickly after first talking, because it seemed clear it was supposed to be that way. She is an amazing friend; she’s loyal, easy to talk to, fun to be with, has a great heart and a head full of deep thoughts, good advice and interesting ways of looking at things. What she means to me is beyond mere words. I love her and I love that I can call her my best friend.

Corey Sutherland
I met Corey on Wrock the Boat (Wrock = wizard rock for those who don’t know) and as soon as I saw her I knew from a glint in her eye that there was something different about her, something ethereal and dream-like. It was a while before we met each other and when we did she was dressed as Luna; my favourite character from Harry Potter and a character Corey seems to be able to channel at will. After a heart to heart and a few dance moves (um, that’s so not the usual way I meet people) we became fast friends. Later I learnt we had a lot in common and that she has a quiet wisdom that is well beyond her years. Add to that the fact that she knows how to make me laugh and you have someone very awesome indeed. She is one of the purest and truest people I’ve ever met; it seems to me that the world is significantly better with her in it and sooner or later the world will reward her for that.

Lizzy Wood
Lizzy is as a sister about as different to me as they come. She’s tall where I’m short, she respects thought where as I put more stock in a person’s heart, she likes exactitude where as I like concepts, she is reserved with emotions and outgoing when having fun, where as I’m outgoing when expressing emotions and reserved when having fun. We’re very different. Yet somehow opposites can work in our case, because I’m as close with her as I am with anyone. We don’t often argue or fight like a lot of siblings, and we make up quickly when we do because we love each other too much. And in the end, she’s been there for me longer than anyone else I know. She’s the best sister I could ask for.
