I was never able to properly thank you for the opportunity that you had given me. I was finally able to aspire to become more. To want more because I could and because with hope becomes opportunity. My Choice. My dreams coming true because to me, my job is all I had. Thank You :). Instead of bore you with any of my dramas I want you to know that you inspire me. if you'd like to read this through let me know how I'm doing because I like feedback from friends and even if you don't consider me one I consider you more than that kind of like a mentor. Also (Jeri: Told me to channel my inner creativity and I figured that writing it all down may help some of the stress I have harbored for some time now. Probably would have stopped my meltdown but whatever...) I may have overdone it on the research it took to actually find what I wanted to write about but I remembered what made me happy in the past and I just kind of put this together. We all have stories. I have never been one to go on about myself but I want to express in words the joys I've felt just being able to interact with you in person as well as the sorrows brought on by you leaving to bring a new life into this world. This Story Is Dedicated To Andrea, My Mentor, My Only Friend. [No Creepy Feelings, I SWEAR!] Okay To The Point!!!!! ACTION!
