Oh la la....C'est un tres bon question, et un question difficile aussi.
Basically, I'm from Lodi, and I love my life. I'm always happy, and carefree, and I think I might be so happy because I'm so passive about a lot of things. Obviously, when stuff happens, I do feel sadness. But on a day to day basis, I'm full of life and joy.
I love my family...Typical, I know, but I really do. We've been through a lot as a family, with just my mom and I and my aunts, uncles, grandparents, and cousins. They really have been there for me through thick and thin.
On July 29th, Ryan Hunter Dickerson died. This is right now shaping me into an entirely new person, and the person I was before Ryan died is unrecognizable compared to the person I am now. That's all I want to say about it. He died, and he's still teaching me how to live my life.
I love to be funny, loud, and awkward, and I love to dance. I like to listen to music. I love the quiet moments that I find God. My toenails are always pink. I still believe peace has a chance.
But really, I'm aly, and I like to make other people happier (I can't take credit for that--That's what Ryan said at the end of his college admissions essay....which was then printed on his funeral service program. I just want him to hug me).

Well Ms. Alyson Larson, you WOULD start this in French, haha. This is a pretty good description of you. You are usually happy and carefree, but I already got into that in the last comment. Anyway, it's crazy how much Ryan's death affected so many people. So many people who didn't even meet him have been changed by how amazing he was.
It's okay to steal what Ryan said, because you really do. Whenever I get to see you my days are made better. I don't know what I would have done without you this summer..because I knew you were always there for me. If Brittney was too busy fighting with Kevin and Melissa was too busy being mad at me for such a silly reason, I knew I could talk to you. You just understand me. You truly are the kind of person that brightens up people's days.
