Before you frantically scan the page to see if your name or picture appears, remember that you clicked the link that said "See some of my friends." And if you want to be on this page, but you think I forgot about you, let me know! I'll see what I can do... If you have asked several times to be put on this very exclusive page, and I still have not honored your request, I can only kindly tell you to get the hint. Just kidding... (The art of detectable sarcasm is very difficult to master online.)



This is my oh-so-favorite neighbor Jenna Rose Katz. Jenna never fails to bring entertainment and humor to every situation, making the most out of what she's given. She's an incredibly motivated woman, not only academically, but with anything she decides to set her mind to. After an exciting summer involving a volunteer trip to Uganda, Jenna returns to Saint Michael's College in the fall.





Christopher was a huge help to me at school when life got really tough my first year, providing encouragement, a shoulder to lean on, and an ear to listen. I am incredibly thankful to have found such an understanding friend in such an unexpecting place. He's currently training for the National Rowing Team in Washington state and will make his mark on the 2008 Olympics in Beijing.







I met my friend Diana on a family trip to Costa Rica in 1999. I am grateful to have her as a friend; communication with her over the years has been incredibly influential to the person I am today. She is a student at Williams College in Williamstown, MA (Williams, not William Smith...there is a rather large difference), which is unfortunately a little too far away for frequent weekend visits.





This is my good friend Bruce torturing (naah—Bruce? torture? never...) my sister Anna, just for the fun of it. He's been busy lately with his extraordinarily demanding job, but he still finds time to come out and play with us sometimes. Unfortunately for him, he's the one we all turn to when something breaks, because he has an uncanny ability to fix almost anything. He's a very useful friend to have around.
