274 Words2 Pages
LILY!!!!! I can’t believe the year is nearly over! After all this insanity, I just wanted to take the time to say, thank you.
Thank you for your positivity and endless determination. Thank you for teaching me about equity and helping me grow as a person. Thank you for being so encouraging, kind, and understanding whenever I was having trouble with something. Thank you for laughing with me, crying me, and kicking institutional ass with me. Thank you for buying me CoGro coffee and bagels, because it has legitimately changed my life (I have spent so much money now there, oh my lord). Thank you for opening my eyes to the issues in the world around me. Thank you for never taking anyone’s shit. Thank you for your sassiness towards institutional incompetence.
