BFF Application

It's a small world, and a few months ago I realized (through a random person I sat next to at a dinner) that my friend who is serving as a missionary in Ireland has a best friend who lives in Chattanooga. I Facebooked the best friend, asking if she'd like to include anything in the package I was sending to Ireland. Turns out we share some mutual friends. Fast forward to my NYE party and the tree burning party, and we realize that we have a lot in common; she suggested that we be BFFs, and I told her I'd send her an application. I've decided it'd be fun to actually send her one at work in an official law firm looking packet.

So I spent an hour "working" this morning, and here's part of what I have so far. I welcome any suggestions.

Note: Due to the high number of applicants for this position, I will not be able to respond personally to each application. If an applicant is chosen to be my, he/she will be notified within ten business days of the receipt of said applicant’s completed application.

My love language is words of affirmation (and quality time). Therefore please describe me in the following space.

Please fill in the blanks.

“Them baggy _____ _____ and the _______ with the straps, with the straps; she turned around and gave that big booty a smack.....”

“But it’s not all that easy so maybe I should just snap her up in a ___________ ________;
Pin her down on a _____________ ____________; I am not worried I’ve done this sort of thing before.” (I’m not going to lie. If you don’t know this song, and/or do not understand why it merits repeat play and analysis you may need remedial coursework before advancing to BFF status.)

“Gather ye __________ while ye may, old time is still a-flying.....”

“Sheets of empty ______, untouched sheets of clay were laid spread out before me as her body once did. All five horizons revolved around her soul as the earth to the sun. Now the air I tasted and breathed has taken a turn.”

“I catalog these steps now
Decisive and intentioned
precise and patterned specifically to yours.
I'm talented at ___________
Especially _________
So that my chest will rise and fall with yours.”

I like ________________ more than television.

I have a _____________________, care about ________________________, and think it’s cool that you are ______________________________.


Identify the films from which the following quotes were taken:

(1) “I SOUND MY BARBARIC YAWP OVER THE ROOFTOPS OF THE WORLD.” “They're not that different from you, are they? Same haircuts. Full of hormones, just like you. Invincible, just like you feel. The world is their oyster. They believe they're destined for great things, just like many of you, their eyes are full of hope, just like you. Did they wait until it was too late to make from their lives even one iota of what they were capable? Because, you see gentlemen, these boys are now fertilizing daffodils. But if you listen real close, you can hear them whisper their legacy to you. Go on, lean in. Listen, you hear it? - - Carpe - - hear it? - - Carpe, carpe diem, seize the day boys, make your lives extraordinary.”

(2) “I just don't think that Brooke could've done this. Exercise gives you endorphins. Endorphins make you happy. Happy people just don't shoot their husbands, they just don't.”
