:D Thanks for sticking by me all these years...sorry for making you feel guilty and whatnot. :) Try not to get too competitive with my nerdiness, 'cause that makes both of us feel bad, lol. Anyways, you're awesome, and never forget that. Sometimes you might feel down or blue or depressed, but know that I'll always be here to sorta brighten up your life. ;) Thanks for teaching me so many things, and introducing me to so many people. Life would be SO MUCH DIFFERENTER without you. (too bad if that's not a word.) Oh! and thanks for the thank-you note...so much it made me cry! D: I hope this MAKES YOU CRY TOO.
