"My Huckleberry Friend"

The first time I saw "Breakfast at Tiffany's" I fell in love. Partly because Audrey Hepburn is classy and will always be my idol, but also because Holly Golightly is my essence.

Looking past the 'call-girl' complex, here's why I love the woman in the black dress.

- Independent and does what she wants to do
- Classy clothes and classy woman
- Still trying to find her place in the world
- Has everything, but has nothing
- Follows her heart
- Takes care of herself just fine, but wouldn't mind having someone to take care of her
- Socialite of the town
- Wears a crackerjack ring proudly
- Tiffany's does scare away the mean reds
- Diamonds shouldn't be worn before 40 - but pearls should
- WIld at heart and won't let anyone put her in a cage
- Loves kissing in the rain


Moon River, wider than a mile,
I'm crossing you in style some day.
Oh, dream maker, you heart breaker,
wherever you're going I'm going your way.
Two drifters off to see the world.
There's such a lot of world to see.
We're after the same rainbow's end--
waiting 'round the bend,
my huckleberry friend,
Moon River and me.
