Why not win a trip to Australia with the person you hate the most? For me, that person is my best friend, Kelsey. When thinking of Kels, many thoughts of hatred come to mind. I hate that when we spend time together, my abs hurt from laughing so hard. I hate that there is someone else in the world that is actually more adventurous than me. I hate that no matter where she goes, she never meets a stranger. I hate that every time she finishes my sentences, I have to pretend that’s not what I was going to say. I hate that while making a gourmet meal, her one job was to stir yet the sauce was somehow burnt. I hate that I can’t look at her for more than three seconds without cracking up. I hate that no matter what we’re doing, whether it be sitting at home watching a movie or spending a weekend driving to some random town we picked by throwing a dart at a map, I walk away feeling like I had the time of my life. I hate that school gets in the way of our random road trips. I hate how children stare at me yet immediately flock to her, even thousands of miles away on a Nicaraguan mission trip. I hate that no matter where we go, her pictures always turn out better than mine. I hate that no matter what sport we play, I’m always just one point behind. I hate that if she were writing this, we’d definitely win this competition. I hate that we’re college students and don’t have the money to take this trip on our own. I hate that most people search their whole lives and never find a friendship like ours. I hate that it would be impossible to find a better friend than her, and even more impossible to imagine going to Australia with anyone else.
