Donovan

 My friend, Donovan Evans, was very influential to me.  He was my best friend all through middle school and most of freshman year until he moved.  He was smart and skilled but to lazy to use these gifts to his advantage.  The one thing I always admired in him was how wise he was for his age.  He had amazing common sense and street smarts, he was experienced with almost every situation.  He taught me a lot in our couple years of friendship.
