so rather than mourn your loss, i try to take the way you lived your life as an inspiration toward how i live mine. Im taking guitar lessons in an effort not to suck. Youre still the best theory teacher ive ever had, but this guy is ok. I think you would be impressed. Maybe, with a little luck and inspiration, ill get to your level. P.S. It is now my plan to expose New Mexico to Bachelor Wraps courtesy of a cafe my friend manages. Ill tell your story to anyone who listens while they chew.
saw info about you and your dad on yahoo today.. made me think about ya.. miss ya.. you would be amazed at my texas hold'em skills...!!! ha ha... keep an eye out...
I just miss you Ariel. Then, time liquified itself and seeped into the cracks between my memories. Now, time has become set like mortar and has taken on the shape of sadness within the memories that I have of you.
I went to your memorial at your house, and I felt you moving among those that you loved. I watched the water where I imagine you sat and contemplated life. The water was still, placid, accepting. I wished that it would pour itself into me, to bring me its small, undulatings rings of whatever secret it held within. It's so hard to let go. Why is wanting just one more breath, and one more smile too much to ask?
I wanted to go to your memorial service yesterday, but was unable to make it. I'm not at FBS this summer, but I absolutely know that you are still missed there.
Took the FBS Santa Monica Directors spot. Had interviews this last weekend and your name kept coming up. There will never be another Ariel. Miss you, buddy.
erl-i took some of your books to read, but i suspect i'll just keep them on the shelf so everyone can see how well-read i am--i hope you heard about nate's dirty haircut.$+@Rbuckle
ariel.. .i feel like an idiot... you are awesome.. and you will always hold a special place in my heart... i still remember that night in new orleans when you taught me how to play texas hold'em and showed me all those magic tricks and let me record them... you were a special person and the world is missing out on a person with your brilliant personality... miss you susan
Well hun, i finally got to see your place and your hun. i think i finally got a bit of closure to talk to other people that loved you that wasnt me and Aaron. I love you but i know that ur my little angel watching over everyone you love... SO Here it is! BACHELOR WRAPS! everyone i made it for loved em... might have been a bit salty from all the tears... but still GOOD! With the bacon dripping for the Dinking Sauce! I love you sunshine!
Oh my god, I cannot believe the world has to lose such a beautiful, shining light. You are loved and will forever be missed. As the all the cabanas at FBS would shout in unison, "We love you Ariel!"
this is not my loss.
this is not your loss.
those of us that had the privelage to know you will agree...
this is the world's loss.
ill never forget you
Ariel...we never got around to doing our 2nd shoot together...holding the shiny board & trying not to squint in the bright sunlight. I'll always remember your crazy stunt jumps. You'll be missed!
I know we didn't ever talk or hang out outside of camp - but you know how there are some people that just stand out from others? well, you were always one of those people.
I have so many great pictures of you from the summer - doing flips, dressed in little tutu outfits, buried in the sand, etc. You were the one of the main people that brought life to camp.
I'd always love the random things you'd say on the mic, or the little smart puns you'd make that I always laughed at from my place in the Eel cabana, even though I'm sure that maybe 2% of the rest of camp actually got!
I cant believe you are gone.... i wish you were still here and being the silly man that i loved since the day i met you. I miss you so much and my heart just soo.... IDK I wish you were still here... i love you!!!! im going to miss you so much!!!!
I dont want to believe you're gone. That last time I saw you.. Your smile could still light up my life. There are so many things I wish I could have said.. Love Always.
My favorite memories with you:
1) Launching kids into the air and into the water yelling "sacrifice!"
2) Hitting up kids for the good snacks at lunchtime
3) Driving you home from taco tuesday and having colorful discussions
4) Jamming with you all day and playing Mr Blue Sky
5) Heckling you from the dolphin cabana
love and peace,
nick
"Mr. Blue Sky, please tell us why you had to go away..."
My dear, dear Ariel. I can't even get my head around the fact that you are gone. Few people have caught and actually kept my interest the way you did. I was looking forward to the opprtunity of continually growing our friendship and be fascinated at some of the things you do and say. I am saddened that we never got that 2nd sushi dinner with the gang, but I will always treasure the first. The world is a better place because you were here, and you are already missed. Do one more flip, please.
Love,
fuz
Yoo brrrooo.. Long time. I watch your video every now and then for inspiration. Did a front tuck and backhandspring on the ground finally. Still working on those backs into the pit. And trainin capoira with contrameastre mariano. Lookin forward to show what ya i got. Layter bro
i would like for you to start calling me Starbuckle. none of the others are in on this. They are missing your genuine type intonation and clear absence of a chuckle.
