Ok first of all you are awesome. Kairos is awesome. So it’s perfect that you two have come together! Ok seriously, Kairos was the best experience of my life. I hope you get as much out of it as I did. You’ll form so many new friendships that you never would have without this experience. You’ll understand people in way you never would have thought. You have to put in to Kairos what you want to get out of it. You have to really open up. Tell your story. Let others know any problem you are struggling with. No matter how small it seems to you, no problem is too small if it matters to you. Let others know so that they can help you through it. Listen to others so you can help them. Stay up all night. DO NOT SLEEP. Stay up and talk with all the guys. That is where some of your best friendships come from. Don’t be afraid to say anything and everything. Kairos is an accepting and loving environment. (I have so many thoughts right now and they are all coming out so this doesn’t make sense. Sorry.) Ok enough about Kairos! Now I’ll tell you how much you mean to me. You are one of my best friends. I don’t know what I would do without you. You are seriously one of the funniest people I know. You have great taste in music! You are THE BEST dancer I know haha. You are super good at singing. You never fail to make everyone laugh. You always make everyone feel welcome. You are such a good friend. You are always there for me when I need you. You are incredibly unique, don’t change that! You aren’t afraid to say what you think. I love that because sometimes you say the things I’m afraid to say. I just want you to know how much I appreciate you and care about you. Next year is going to be so sad leaving you and everyone! We need to make sure we make the best of the next ten months! Love you John! I hope your Kairos is as great as mine was!
