Every group of friends has someone in it that knows something the others don't - whether it be fashion, gym, politics, books, nails, shopping, makeup, music and pop culture...whatever, each person has their area of expertise. I like to think of it as a real life puzzle...you can't have the full picture without all the parts there. My group of girls that I love ever so dearly is made up of the best bunch (whether you believe it or not), haha so let me tell you a little bit about each of them...for today's post, my longest friend ever.
Every so often I have a friend of a friend, a coworker, or even my sister ask me "Hey Rahna, do you know who can help me with this [insert totally absurd request/favor/questions here]?" (And by every so often I mean like every day...) About 9 out 10 times my answer is "Yeah, hang on...let me call Zeina." You think I'm kidding, but I'm not. I promise. You can ask anyone that knows her and/or me. She knows everything, and if she doesn't know - you bet your little cute tushy she will find out faster than you can say "Oh okay, thanks anyways!"
Zeina can talk to you about makeup and shopping, politics and the President, football, TV, hooka, baking and cooking...just about anything you can imagine. She works within the government space and spends her free time finding/creating the most amazing recipes to cook/bake or shopping for the best purses and shoes you would ever be able to find. She can set up a mean hooka and bake red velvet cupcakes from scratch. She has a beautiful collection of purses and the most to die for jewelry. Oh yeah, and she's a licensed make up artist.
And...my therapist. :)
Zeina and I have been friends since the day she was born (I'm older by 5 months). Our moms were friends before they were even pregnant with us. We've been at the same school since pre-school, and we graduated from Mason together in 2011. We've lived down the street from each other our entire life and not once experienced a "huge life event" without one another: first communion, 8th grade graduation, homecomings and Prom, first kisses and boyfriends, high school graduation, college acceptance, and getting our first big girl jobs. She IS my other half.
Do we fight? Yes. Do we disagree on things? Every day. Do we annoy each other? YEP! But it doesn't matter...she's the ying to my yang. She can bounce me back from anything full force and I can't imagine getting through a problem without her advice. No matter how wrong I am, she will make me feel like everything will be okay. I look up to her. I wish I had her strength to tackle anything and everything that comes her way and I wish I had her patience to let things play out exactly the way they should. She's amazing.
Typically, I'm all about sharing is caring..but in this case she's all mine!! (And Rachel and Pam's too...) but other than that..alllllll mine!
Shout out to my most amazing, beautiful, intelligent, ambitious, ride or die bffl! I hope we grow old still best friends and be the coolest grandmas our generation would ever have.
