Many people have made such an impact on my life, and I couldn’t possibly get as far as I am now without them.


Kimberly O. E.
You’re passion for FIRST has changed my entire life experience, and I can’t thank you enough, for all the advice you’ve given me, wise words, training and nomination. Your submission of the Dean’s list essay for me has given me so much hope, and I promise to go far in the future with the skills you have taught me so well.

Larry L.
As one of the best role models in my life, I can’t help but be envious of your willingness to never stop working hard. You’ve given me confidence to always stand by my own word, and try hard to do the best that I always can with 102% - not just one-hundred.

Jeff D.
Jeff, you always have high hopes for me, and you really push me to look for what I want in life. I may find it. We’ll see. But aren’t you proud? Treasure and hold close what’s dear to you. I’m happy to have nominated you for WFA, and despite the fact that you didn’t win… it must have still meant a lot to you. I look back and remember presenting it to you alongside Mike. I was brought to tears. I’m glad I’m able to make such an impact in your life.

Joshua P. L.
You know who you are, and we both know who we are to eachother, so remember that I’m always here. Always was, always will  be, so don’t be afraid to inch a little closer and whisper to me what’s wrong. I shall forever remain envious of your musical talent. Always yours truly, your Tiny Madam.

Vinh Q. L.
You’re always still putting a smile on my face, and you’ve changed me in ways that no one else ever will. Thank you so much for everything, it’s been fun. I’ll visit someday if you have me. I always look back at what amazing time we had together.

Drake Family
You’ve helped me in so many ways from school, to college, to job finding, and I don’t think that I could possibly thank you enough in just one life time! You have a wonderful family, and an amazing, smart and talented son. Please have the best of days!

McChesney Family
A lot of my life has been wishful thinking, but you have become the closest to what I wish resembled my family. I love you all so much, and words cannot express how thankful I am for your family to be here. If it were up to me, I really would love to be your daughter.

Schenks
Always neighbors dear to my heart. My second family, my best of friends. I wish our time was never shortened, but of course, I have to be so busy all the time! I miss all the late nights, movies and dinners. Most of all, I miss the boys! Outdoor football was always the best.

Mike H.
That’s right. You’re in here. Mike, you have always been my go-to person in robotics, and I’m really glad to say that you were my running partner for Dean’s list. Thank you for giving me the opportunity to win the award at the regional in your stead. If it were up to me, I would have submitted for both of us. Mike, keep aiming high :)

Goodmans.
Your family gave me so much. Even the little stuff just made for the best of my days. Continue to smile and be happy, because that was the best part I loved about your family. You know, there’s no day but today.

Ben N.
You’ve always been there, I hope that you always will. It’s been five years now, hasn’t it? You may be the furthest of my friends, but you’re closest to my heart in so many ways. Be crazy, go nuts. I know you like it - that entropy.

Devin K.
You never ceased to brighten my day when the rain came pouring down. Keep trying hard, because if you don’t, I’ll make you. I’ll visit soon.

Eric N.
Not sure how much I can say here, but I think you know I’m thankful. It’s cool. Let’s play some more LoL. :)

Maggie Z.
You are one of the best people to hang out with. I always have such a good time, even when we just sit down and have coffee. Keep smiling.

Mr. Brewer
You are one of the coolest people I’ve met. I really envy your calm manner and am in awe of your amazing ability to let go of FIRST just so slightly. Good luck with your future endeavors, I will be trying too!

Mrs. Henry
As one of my favorite teachers, you rocked my junior year, and really topped it off senior year. I couldn’t have expected it any more or less! I really enjoyed Speech, and Imaginary Worlds was some-what fun. You’ve really encouraged me to do all that I want to and I can’t thank you enough. You taught me that things happen for a reason, and even though you may not have known that that had meant so much to me, I reflect on that very comment every single day, and it’s what keeps my life in a perpetual motion. Thank you SO much!

Facebook Staff
You finally fixed my facebook, and I exist again! Thanks :)

Cynette C.
You really took care of me the weekend you came down to visit while Tom had a class! I had such an amazing time exploring NYC with you, and it really was an adventure shopping all around. You made my dream come true of having lots of shopping bags while walking around the city… thank you!

Adam B.
Stop teasing me so much :o. I’m always having so much fun when I talk to you! We’ll hang out soon, so hold on for now :)

Rika L.
You will forever be the Reita to my Uruha. Remember how we used to go nuts together, and just drive everyone crazy? You were my role model, and I envy your talent and drive to succeed. :) Die young, and leave a good lookin’ corpse. I think you got it right :P Gradate school first though!

Ted S.
Let’s keep taking care of one another, yeah? Me and you always stick together and help eachother out like tomorrow would never exist unless we did. Wanna race some time? Nah. You’ll win. Hahaha.

Zaki G L.
You effing taught me to play piano, what more can I say than that? You’re an amazing person, and there’s a lot more to just the rhythm and the notes. You saw right through me, and maybe next time we catch up, you can meet me at the train station.

Bear H.
You are one of the kindest people in my life! You’ve put up with all my excitement, and I’m finally coming to grow as an adult… no. Wait. That’s not true. Media pass share buddies 4eva! >_<!
