Meet Virginia

Through the many activities, qualities, and areas of our lives that Virginia and I share I have come to know my seat buddy well enough to call her one of my closest friends. Yet, because of this I can tell you all about the REAL Virginia Grimes. Witty, kind, classy (haha), and put-together, Virginia often comes across as approachable and social. She knows herself impeccably well and always has an adequate balance in her life that enables her never to get too overwhelmed but also never to become lazy (I'm shhoo jealous of this). Additionally, she can always find the good in situations and people and will never hesitate to put people in their place when need be. Furthermore, she's one of the few people that I know I can act completely stupid with and know that she won't be judging me as I do. The story about the "I Believe in Cake Speech," various moments in French class (Mrs. Perry's story about taking her cat to France, etc.), and our drives to swim practice have come to characterize our friendship and exemplify the funnier aspects of it. In five years Virginia will be graduating Wake Forest or where ever else she wants to go because I have no doubt she'll be capable of getting into what ever school she wants to go to.
