See You Later Alligator.

The semester is 1.5 weeks away from ending. So, I'm taking the time to say goodbye to everything that I have loved(or hated), about this semester. Probably you should all listen to Michelle Branch sing her whiny "Goodbye to You" song while reading this, you could be really touched...

Peace out Robyn from WSI, I will not miss you, or any of your many off-topic stories, and thinly veiled insults.

See ya, gap-toothed girl, AP girl, and girl who is against all odds engaged. You made my American Heritage Lab a living nightmare, but I will miss your strangely liberal, ignorant, comments and superior attitudes.

Farewell Creamery. I will truly miss your french fries and fry sauce, even though they have probably clogged my arteries. I will also miss the rotten produce and lime chips.

So long Microwave that I love. Thank you for cooking my bagel bites and taquitos to perfection.

Adios giant, RS notebook. You made me look like a mom, but thanks for giving my biceps a work out.

Ciao t.v. that sits in Jana's kitchen, you have served us well. I will be forever grateful to you for allowing me to watch Gossip Girl instead of going to FHE and for introducing Jana to Moulin Rouge.

Cheerio 185th Ward. Your testimony meetings are unparalleled. Where else will I ever find a ward quite as entertaining as you? Your members will always have a special place in my heart...and my jokes.

Bye-bye Relief Society. The thought of never poorly sight reading an obscure hymn, that no one will ever really learn, every Sunday for five minute music practice truly saddens me.

Adieu Laurie Haddock. You are truly a corn dog, I hope, for the sake of your future students, that you take the comments on ratemyprofessor.com seriously. But really, thank you for sending that email, every time I'm having an awful day I read it and suddenly, I realize that life isn't that bad. I mean, I could be trapped in your class again.

Asta la Vista tricky rocking chair. You may have fooled me once or twice, but there's nothing I'd rather sit on.

On a more serious note, goodbye to:

Michael- Thank you for playing the piano, listening to me butcher every song I've ever learned on the piano, saving me seats because I'm always late, and letting me text you all the time. If your life was in danger and the only way for me to save it would be for me to give a foot massage, I would do it gladly. I am so very glad that we ended up in the same ward, I truly don't know what I would have done without you! You are going to be an amazing missionary, Norway is a lucky place.

Tyler- Thank you for making me laugh in Physical Science, making crazy sound effects for EVERYTHING, tricking me into going with you places, texting me, and telling me you like my dress. Church and class would be so boring without you! I am really glad that we got to be friends and I know that you'll just be fantastic down in Brazil(you still owe us for Grace.) Still, I would dive into a dumpster for you.

Jana- I know you're not really leaving and that we're just going to go hang out all summer, but still...Thanks for always coming over, taking all of the same classes I am, letting me pretend to be a model, being my doppleganger, eating taquitos 5 days in a row, eating Subway 6 days in a row, going to neon night, and singing with me all the time. I can't even tell you how happy I am that you are also at BYU. Also, I can't wait to party it up at the Rizzeynolds next semester.




I loved more things than I hated this year, and I am very grateful for that. Believe it or not, I'm pretty sad to leave.

I did some laughing and I did some crying while reading this blog. I find it strangely comforting that you will be there to give a foot massage when my life depends on it :)
