Tribute to people
Wow... good day today. Graduation pratice this morning was blah, but things got better :) Spent most of the morning in Ms. Pullen's game playing games (well, part of the fun was playing games... but what made the morning great was something else) and the rest of it talking with Ms. Earl and Dannette and Mrs. Boles. Then, Janel and I went to lunch at YCs. Yum yum :) I'm also making lots of progress on cleaning my room... you can see the floor now! :-D Now if only Pat knew for sure if he could or couldn't come over tomorrow night... everything would be perfect :)
Anyway, I know I left a lot of people out of the "*cries*" entry, so here's a tribute to everyone that comes to mind right now... I can edit this later. Janel, Pat, and Pully are repeated from before. Disclaimer: people are listed in order they come to mind, not in order of closeness to me (with the first three POSSIBLY being exceptions, just because).
Janel... I will miss you so much. Miss talking to you... miss your hugs... miss all the whispered things in your ear... all the jokes... all the lunchtimes at Jack in the Box or whatever... Miss your company... miss your advice... all those times that I needed to call someone up and you were always there... Everything. Having someone to share with... to cry with... to open up to... to trust completely, absolutely, unconditionally. You're always there for me, no matter what. You go so far beyond what's needed... We're so much more than friends... I don't know how I'm going to hold up without you. I care for you so much... in so many ways... it'll be hard.
Pat.. I'm going to miss your craziness... Going to miss the fun times we had together... going to miss the Fridays going to the club... going to miss harassing Adra with you... yes, going to miss you stealing my hat... and shoe... and sock... Going to miss you abusing my camera... Dammit, most of all though, I'm going to miss you. You have been such an amazing friend... my best friend... I'm honored to know you. You've done so much for me... been understanding... been accepting... been supportive... always been there... worried about me... You've put me ahead of yourself... many times. You... give me far more than is expected... just because you know... how much it means to me. And I care about you too much. Pat, you are a good person. No matter what anyone says. All your little quirks make you who you are... don't ever change.
Ms. Pullen... I could never say enough about you. You've been amazing for the past three years... always being there to listen or to make me feel better when I was down. You were always so understanding... so intuitive... in a way, it made everything easier :) Heh, you know so much about me... and I guess that's good that I have an adult figure I can run to for advice or help... Something not tainted by hormones or youthful innocence :P Thank you so much for everything. Maybe one day I will have half the courage that you do... and I'll be able to do something I've been wanting to do for a long time.
Ty... ah Ty. You've taught me so much about technology... troubleshooting... hardware... configuration... and your mom :) You'll be hard to forget, definetly... especially since I'm going into computer science. It's been great working with you this year... learning to slack... learning to look busy... learning the ins and outs of the school network so I don't need to hack it to kill it ;) Heh, j/k. Thanks for the pizza and all the rat parties too! Keep at DDR... you're doing great. Anyway, yeah... you're a great guy Ty. I will miss you.
Ty... other Ty... Brown. :) I don't even know if you read my journal, but yeah. First of all, I'm sorry for never IMing you or anything. You're one of my closest friends, and I still consider you one of my best friends. We've been through a lot together... well, maybe not, but it's an expression :-P Going to Thailand together within the month though, so I guess I'll see you then, and I won't miss you that much until after I leave for CMU.
Vicki... ah yes, Vicki. Wow... what can I say. Good friend from Calc last year... thank you for riding with me after school every day and tolerating my periods of depression and periods of mania. I know I'm crazy sometimes but, meh, whatever :) Heh, lately we've become a lot closer though, and I'm glad for that. Thanks for all the help in chem and the support in life in general. I'll miss you :)
And, of course, David immediately comes to mind. Heh... wow... where do I begin? I regret I only got to know you this year, but you're a really, really good friend. Thanks for always being there to listen and for being supportive. Oh yeah, and thanks for the huge dog for Christmas!! :-D Good luck with your jeep and your botique (I spelled that wrong...). Keep in touch or else.
Dannette... Dani :) We've been through so much together these past three years... from that first time Auky and I nervously walked into the office and asked if we could wait... until the last time I saw you today. You're always smiling... always happy... always so tolerant. You make the Academy what it is... and I can't imagine it without you next year. Thanks for putting up with me, for selling yearbooks, for selling cards... for everything. I will miss you. I'll be sure to come visit though!
Auky... heh... unfortunately, we've grown apart a bit this year, but I guess that's because you're all big and bad in college and I'm still a lowly high-schooler. We always have a lot of fun together though :) Thanks for the help in DesTech this year... and for all the times you had me over. We have to do something this summer since you can't come to my thingy Friday.
Brian :) What's up? I owe you so much... you did an unfair amount of work for our lab group this year in Physics. You also gave me rides last year... which I still really, really appreciate. We've grown apart as well... probably because I've grown so annoying or whatnot... but yeah. I hardly see you anyway... and we don't talk that much... but I'll still miss you, you know? Your spirit in the classroom always arguing with the teacher (*coughmadsencough*), walking down the halls and waving... cussing me out for taking a picture of you eating :) Heh... keep in touch. Use AIM more next year :) and good luck.
Ms. Earl. Only known you for a year, but you've already made such an impact on me. Time and time again, you've proven yourself to me in a way... you're trustworthy... kind... generous... caring... you put yourself on the line for the students... you are genuinely worried about us... truly believe in what you are doing... I mean, dammit, you even read our personal journals to see what's up and how you can improve it!!! It's rare to find a person like that, and I had the privledge of not only knowing her, but also, in a way, befriending her. Don't forget me next year... I'll be sure to IM you... using only one-word phrases :)
Mrs. Boles. Heh, you've been great too. Always having our best interests at heart, and defending the school in the way only an effective politician could :) I hate politicians... but this particular one I... uh... adore? :P I've gotten to know you remarkably well these past two years... something no normal principal would give a student a chance to do. You've been so open to everything... making decisions with students in mind. Thanks for everything, and good luck at District next year :)
Amanda :) No, I didn't forget you. DRAG QUEEN DRAG QUEEN... ok I'm done... you can kill me tomorrow at the party. Anyway, you've been a great friends :) Your dedication to yearbook... overachieving in various classes... you're a memorable gal :) Wednesdays were great... heh. Lunches too. I'm gonna miss you. Keep up the estrogen shots, and I will see you next year!
Ruppel... heh. You're crazy, you know that? You're also a genius when it comes to hardware. I'll never forget our online conversations (most of which are quoted in my subprofile anyway) or the semester we spent together as interns. Was great working with you... great ganging up on Ty's mom with you... all that great stuff :) Keep up the drawings too, they're great.
Wheeee, Josh. AKA only-guy-who-understands-madsen. AKA carpet-chin. AKA Michelle-poker. AKA PPA-TCG-Expert. I wish I knew you better, you seem like a really great guy :) In any case, thank you for allll the help with the card game this year. I would never have been able to do it without you. Help Pat next year if he wants to make cards :)
Sean... heh. Ditto to above. You are definetly one of the best PPA-TCG players ever. Thanks for all the Pokemon help and stuff too. Wish I'd gotten to know you better.
Tim. YOUR MOM YOUR MOM YOUR MOM! You can't whip me now! Ohhhh, what now?!?!? Anyway, it was fun interning with you this year. Your pacing back and forth when Ty was slacking... your dedicated efforts at learning programming and the ins-and-outs of computer troubleshooting. Keep it up :)
Dominic. Heh, what's up? As you wrote in my yearbook... yeah, it's amazing how we would never have talked to each other... yet here we are, good friends, all because of interning. I can say that you did for me what Unitown did for a lot of other people. I mean, steriotyping is so bad... just because you had pierced ears and bleached hair, I thought you were like this total loser. You've changed the way I perceive people for the better, so thanks :) And you rubbed off on me too... cause I'm thinking about either bleaching my hair or getting highlights. Keep that submarine parked, and keep in touch... somehow.
Adra. Eewwwww! Heh, got to know you in Orch last year... got to know you better this year. Always hiding from the camera even though you're THE most photogenic person in the Academy... Good luck with everything next year!
Michelle. Heh, what's there to say? Great job with Yearbook, definetly. Once again, I wish I had gotten to know you better, but it was great working with you.
Janet! Jan-Jan :) Wow... you've changed so much since you first walked into Mrs. Zinke's spanish that first day three years ago. You still have your same cockyness and confidence, but you've grown a ton since then. Movie star... photographer... Heh, you're involved in more clubs than I can name... Yeah, I wish you the best of luck next year. Keep in touch with me!
That's it. If you were not mentioned, you are not my friend. Lol, j/k. If you weren't mentioned, rest assured I will add you soon... I just have to continue cleaning my room now.
