I am not quite sure when and how Vivian came into my life. I do know that she has been a termendous help to me in several areas of journaling, and as a person I can vent to.
When I was nomiated against her recently in the AOL People Awards I thought 
"well, no way I can win now." I knew she would win because she deserved to win.
Vivian and I have become closer friends thanks to the AOL J-land One Year Annivesary. I have tried to help he with all things anniversary, don't know that I did such a great job but it brought us closer together as friends.
Even though someone else may would have taken up the "torch" to lead J-land to our One Year Celebration, I don't think any one else could have pulled it together and pulled it off in such a gread way.
So Vivian here is the AOL Journal Torch Bearer Award. Thanks for being that true beam of light that I -- and others -- have needed in J-land. Thanks for leading us to and through this milestone celebration.
Everyone click on Vivian's name here and go visit her place. If you have never been there you have missed a real treat.

Great entry Kathy. It's hard to imagine what the celebrations would be like without the guidance of Viv.

Well-said Kathy! Thanks so much for joining us in celebrating the Vivster! For all she does in J-Land, AOL should have a national holiday in her honor! Oooo! I've just had another great idea! LOL! :-)
Seriously, it makes ME happy to see so many people who love this woman like I do! Thanks again Kat! :-)
Vivian's a sweetheart. I've only just gotten to know her, thanks in part to you! So glad Gregg made this award for her... Albert

It's not always easy to remember the first time you meet someone but there can often be something about a particular time that sticks out. I can remember when we were learning how to do background images in our entries. I believe that's the first time we exchanged a volley of email. When I know that someone is as excited about something as I am, I get even more excited. I enjoyed sharing what I had learned from Dean with you and watching you become a fast expert at it!
You have been a tremendous help to me during the anniversary. I would not have known where to put my hands on many things without your help. At the same time you were helping Pam and Ayn. I was feeling guilty that you weren't going to be able to enjoy the anniversary because you were working too hard. I only wish I could let you know how much your help and your friendship have meant to me. I proudly accept this award from you! I am honored, I am humbled and I am excited!
Love,
Vivian
Great tribute! :-) ---Robbie
