This might be the hardest thing I've ever had to write because I can't even think of any of the wonderful memories I have with Justin without breaking down and crying. Justin was the best thing that happened to me in my 7 year stay in San Diego. What started as his girlfriend being my mutual friend turned into him becoming my only real friend in San Diego, I mean true, loyal, the only person I could really count on. Justin and I were brothers. We always said that us having each other out there was really the only thing we were holding onto in California. For the majority of his last year in San Diego we lived together in his one bedroom apartment. We were so close that we never minded sharing the small space. We both were going through hard financial times so we didn't have very much. No cable, justin didn't have a car, I didn't have my own room... But we had each other. We used to love the end of the day because that's when we would make dinner together and sit down and watch one if the DVDs we pave already seen a hundred times before. I can't even tell you how many times we watched every season of "the wire" and fallin asleep in the living room together just to wake up to that theme music playing over and over! One thing justin would do when we were struggling through a day is he would look right at me, smile big, open his arms up as wide as he could and say "at least we have each other, that's all we need" and we would continue to hug it out like real brothers would. I would do anything... Give anything in the world to hug Justin one more time. I love him so much and am going to miss talking to him SO MUCH. My life will never be the same without him. His friendship was one of a kind to me and it will never be replaced. "Love ya kid!"
