Nina.
Hey, this is one of those days, where I'm missing Nina really bad. Sleepovers, every weekend, being together at every holiday. Florida in no way shouldve taken her away from me, because not only did it take a cousin, it took a best friend. Nina was always there for me and I was always there for her, even though we'd get into those bitch fights in the pool, with the tops I mean come on! Then there were those times down in Greenridge with Cool Pete, and Big Chris, and Bob Barker and the hipomatic thing! :: theyre selling porno in McDonalds!:: And the two of us being Hug Whores. No one else knows where that came from.

So anyway it all started when we were three years old on a dance floor, at our Nanny's somethingith birthday. Our eyes met from across the crowded table of Aunts and Uncles, and we grabbed hands and we danced our little circle dance through the grown ups legs. From then on we were inseperable, from that Easter where we played with my dolls, to the Little Mermaid in fun station with our matching pajamas, and feeding Bubba the parrot who beckoned "Grandpa Grandpa". So anyway, we played Candyland, and had our fun going into eachothers pools and playing dress up, and putting on those fake little makeup things Nanny would give to us. Then at Stephanie's communion we discovered the "Party Ditch" and we walked around outside, and we laughed and laughed and we drank Sprite from paper cups and pretended it was champagne.

Soon enough, all the other cousins were born, and we perfected the art of the "Party Ditch" and soon enough we were walking around everybody's block at every party. Especially Uncle John's with the park being there and all. So at every party, Nina and I would walk around the block and talk our little hearts out about whatever was happening in our schools at that time, silently hoping we would meet someday in another school's realm. Around the age of ten we discovered the glory of sleepovers, and really cool dolls, and we hung out all the time. We stole Steph's style, and we thought we were so cool for playing dress up.

Out of nowhere Junior Highschool sprouted, and we discovered the glories of the mall, and clothing, and music, and friends. I was friends with Nina's friends earlier because I was a loser at my school. I had my occasional friends, and she had her solid group, so I hung with them. I think it was the summer of my sixth grade that Nina got her beeper, and in the same few days lost it to the Ocean that borders Staten Island. To this day I'm almost sure there's still a shark going "dun dun nun nun nun nun" and lighting up. After that, Nina drifted away from her friends and we started hanging out in my neighborhood more, this was in seventh grade when we had crushes on boys from the same caste, we hung out with Dee and I got my first kiss, in the Atrium with Nina cheering me on. After that it was walks around the block til ten oclock, and walking the dog, all the time. The two of us had our days of listening to Stone Temple Pilots and Creed.

Oh, the places we went and the things we did in those years when we were ourselves. Soon enough we had boyfriends, and we grew closer than ever, and we traded in our dolls for boyfriends, and we hung up our fake pumps and got our Aeropostale shirts, and liked Limp Bizkit. Soon enough after that we hated them and grew into better music, and we got to be awesome kids with lots of friends, and we had alot of fun in eigth grade, until we thought we would go to the same high school.

We didnt. And we were heartbroken because she moved right before we got to. It was our life long dream to be in school together, and Tottenville was our chance, and her parents fucked it up on us. I miss my cousin so much. I miss the fucked up family parties. You in general.. and I love you. Weve had so many memories throughout these 15 years.. and we have many more to come.

XoXo
Love Jamie.
