Four years. I can't even begin to sum up the past four years of my life. Incredible friendships. Remarkable memories. I have had some of the most incredible teachers while I was here. I cannot begin to thank everyone enough for everything they have done. Mr. Garmey: You've been there for me since freshman year. I can't even think of the words I want to tell you because there is so much. You are absolutely amazing and have had a huge impact on my life. Saying thank you doesn't nearly cover everything you have done or have been willing to do for me. I view you like a grandpa, and you can't even imagine what that means to me.
Dr. Knebel: I've only had you for one year, but you are by far the one who has been my favorite (it helps that I absolutely love the subject too)! You are just absolutely amazing. You have my been an absolute joy to meet and know. Meeting someone like you in life is rare and I'm lucky enough to say that I've meet you, been taught by you, and still can call you a friend. I honestly, even long period, looked forward to coming to your class. I wish I had been able to know you all four years. I really want us to keep in touch. Let's skype!! Mrs. Burruss: I hate history you know this. I hate it with a burning passion. You are the first teacher that made me enjoy history ever, and we all know that's a big feat. I enjoyed learning about all of it because I know you were so passionate about it. Thank you for finally being able to give me that joy that you felt every time you taught the material. To all the teachers I missed: All of you have had a huge impact. If I could name every teacher in here I would, but I don't have the space. I love every single one of you. Thank you for helping me along the way. It means the world. More than you know. I love all of you. Being here four years, I've seen people come and go. I've been lucky enough to have some pretty constant people in my life though who mean the world to me. Noell: Girl, you are my best friend. I love you so much words can't describe it. We've been through so much. I don't need to name everything in here. You know how I feel. I love you so much booboo. Yous my little fighter! <3
Sumner: You're a pain in the a••. You know it too. You've accepted it. I'm so glad I have a friend like you. We've been through quite a bit together as well. We've had some interesting times and I'm sure we'll have plenty more to go. I intend to keep in touch with you in college and skype allll the time. So be ready. I love you kid. You mean a lot and I'm lucky to have met you and be able to call you my best friend.
My family: You've helped me. Supported me. Loved me. Been there for me. I couldn't have done this without every single one of you. I love you guys.
Vic, Flo, Chris, James S., James B., Felicity: You guys are all incredible people I love all of you. I've already told all of you alii need to say. Just wanted to gently remind you all
that I love you.
Jenna: Four years. Volleyball. Life. Me being a complete sassy b*tch to you and you being one back. I love it. I love you. You've been one of the greatest people to me. I love you to the moon and back. I love all of our talks from the past couple years. You are amazing. Stay classy lovely. Muah <3 Love you babe.
Nicholas Ray Peycke: Yes, you may hate me allllll you want for putting your full name but I wanted to. It's my last chance to give you grief. I just wanted to tell you that honestly these past couple months have been some of the best I've ever had. Sure we've had a couple struggles, but a relationship isn't a true relationship if it's perfect all the time. I just wanted to say that I'm going to miss seeing your face every day next year. I hope we can make it work out darling, I really think we can. Just wanted to say no matter what happens, you are one of the greatest people I've me. You are my best friend and I love you for that. I love you my little wannabe emo/punk kid. Behave and don't terrorize the underclassmen and try not to rant too much.
Finally for all of you that I didn't name: No you are still special. I loved everyone at the school. That includes you if you are reading this. I'm not a very patient person and could not name everyone. But I love all of you and you all impacted me in the greatest way possible. Being there for me. Keep it classy everyone. Once again, I love you.
