Why do I love this girl named Mayra?

• If I listed all her quirky habits that I find adorable, you would never want to read this blog again.
  
• She cannot swim, but she will still go on an innertube ride that she knows will end in disaster.
• She studies with me in more ways than one.
• CEVICHE!!! Om nom nom nom nom nom nom nom.
• There is a land called Passive Aggressiva and she is their queen. This is actually a good thing. The last time I saw her mad, she threw a baseball at the wall like it was nobody's business.
  
• She and her Singaporean girlfriend adopted me, asking for nothing but my love in return.
• She took me to New York and let me run the AC even though she was probably suffering from hypothermia.
• She was half the reason that I survived Mississippi.
• She is already a quarter century old and still does not know how extraordinary she is.
