Wliat to say? Words cannot express the things all the things good and
bad (mostly bad) that have happened since I walked through that front
gate. First and foremost, I would like to thank my family- Daddy,
Thanks for being my guardian angel! 1 will always love and miss you!
Mom- You are the strongest person in the worid! Thank you for
teaching me what it means to be a real woman! Diane- Thanks for
being my role model! You are always there with a piece of advice or a
good story! You are my sister, my second mom, and mostly
importantly my friend! 1 love you! To my special someone- Thanks
baby for showing me what love is! You will always be in my heart! I
love you like fat kid love cake! To all my friends, you guys know who
you are! We've had many good memories from "Roses in the Mud” to
in da club, 2nd row at the Nelly concert, touching Tyrese, fun runs,
working at CVS. visits to colleges, NYC, and numerous other extra
curricular activities. We’ve grown up and unfortunately some of us
have grown apart. I would also like to say sorry for anything I ever did
to hurt you! I wish you all guys the best of luck in getting whatever
your heart desires!
Some final words:
"What doesn't kill you will make you stronger!"
"There is no progress without struggle!"
'M y personal favorite- "I like big butts and I cannot lie!!!”
