I just wanted to say a quick thank you to the three girls who made such a HUGE impact on my life this year. The things that I learned in this class that mattered MOST I learned from you three. Since I have dropped the program, there is a chance that I will never be able to tell you guys what you've meant to me. So I thought I would take this chance to do it.
MEGAN: You are an awesome person. You always have a smile, even when you're unhappy about something. You taught me to always hold my head high and to look for the bright side of what was going on in my life. I wish you nothing but the absolute best with your teaching career. You're going to be an amazing teacher. I hope you can teach all of your future students to appreciate life and keep a smile on their face.
BRENDA: You have been an amazing friend to me for almost a year now. No matter if I'm on the war path or if I'm in one of my ultrasmiley phases, you always stand by my side and help me through life, whether it's getting me some notes I missed or letting me hold your book hostage for a week or even just to let me vent about things. You are going to be a wonderful teacher. I've had teachers like you, and I loved being in their classes. I was always glad to tell everyone that they had been my teacher. I'm just as glad to tell the world that you are my friend.
MELISSA: Whether you know it or not, you are one of the greatest people I have ever met. I can honestly say that I am a better person for having known you. When I was holding on to a dream I didn't believe in anymore, and needed out, you took the plunge and showed me that it was alright to do so. I can never repay you for what you have given me in friendship and inspiration. No matter what you do with your future, I hope you will stay in touch and keep me up to date on all of it. (don't mind the picture... I couldn't get it to look right, and I ran out of time...)
There you have it, group... I honestly hate to see us go our separate ways. I wish you all the best. Remember the good times we've had together. I'll miss you all.
