Three Cheers for Five Years

Well, it has officially been five years, so I have to do this.

1. You've always been able to make me smile
No matter what the situation, I've always been able to count on you to make me smile. Even if that meant stealing my stuff and never giving it back, scribbling my name on the inside of your hat, or putting on my abercrombie sweatshirt. I've been hurt a lot, and get upset easily, and you've always known just what to do or say to fix it. I know, I could be Jewish, Helen Keller, and a whole list of other things.

2. You gave me the chance to see that I'm good enough
If there's one thing that I'll take away from all of this, it's the fact that you made me feel a lot better about who I am as a person. By giving me that chance, no matter how hard I had to work for it, you made me see that hey, I'm good enough. I'm good enough to find someone decent and be treated decent. I'm good enough to show the world that I'm confident, that I know what I want, and if I want it bad enough, I can ge tit.

3. You were willing to do anything. And really, anything.
Anything I ever needed, you did. When my iPod got stolen you looked for it. When I was sick and needed a shoulder to lean on, you sat there and let me. When I was cold you'd give me your hoodie to wear. When I was mad at you you'd poke my face until I wasn't mad anymore. No matter what, you'd do anything for me. You'd drag me face to face to friends that I was in fights with. You stopped at my house to make sure I was okay when I wasn't. When my boyfriend broke up with me you offered to break his legs. You've done so much, that I can't even start to list it all.

All in all
The past five years have been hell and happiness in some weird combination. I don't know how to explain them, I can't put words to them. I can't say they were all a cakewalk, but I've learned a lot about myself and that I'll take with me wherever I choose to go. No matter what I'll remember everything and I'll cherish it all forever. No matter where you go, what you do, who you do it with, you'll always know that I'm never forgetting.
