Apparently the person that wrote this article left out the fact that Emily is the nicest person on the planet! :) I go to school with her and she never does anything remotely mean to anybody/anything and she's always a good person to turn to for help. I often tell her that it's an unforgivable sin to even think something bad about her. :) Everybody loves Emily. :)

Yes, she most definitely is William. I immediately sensed it during our conversation. I don't know how I could have left that part out ;)
