A thank you.

This is a thank you to all of those people who have done something for me and have never asked for anything in return.

To my best friend who does everything for me without question:

Thank you for being there for me through everything, thick or thin and never leave me alone, and...... well that really embarrassing moment that you never let me live down. Thank you for your endless planning of our soon to be wedding, just because we both don't have boyfriends and we're meant to be together. Everything you do for me makes me smile, especially that one time that we don't speak of. Thank you for always knowing when I need a hug and when I'm about to cry and make me smile instead. Thank you for loving me endlessly and always being the Yzma to my Kronk. Even though we both know that I'm Maleficent at heart. DISNEY VILLAINS UNITE!!!

To my best friends mom:

You know who you are ;)

Thank you so much for everything you do for me and my family, you never cease to amaze me and you never stop loving me even though I'm not your own daughter. Thank you for all those rides that you've given me, and thank you for the food that you supply me with.....really thanks for the food. Thank you for always being there to support me when my parents can't, I know you love me like I'm your own and it really means a lot. Thank you for listening to my endless babbling with your daughter; I can tell it annoys you but you never say anything about it so thank you. Also thank you for always keeping me informed on the gossip that i didn't know about. Anytime you need a babysitter for your Disney loving daughter, I'll be here. I love you Mom #2 and I owe you BIG TIME!

To my teachers and club mentors:

Thank you for everything you've done for me in my high school career. You've helped mold me into the person I am. I may have a few more years with you, but you've already changed me into a great person and for that I am thankful. Thank you for pushing me on that one paper I could have done better on, thank you for helping me prepare for a competition at the last minute, and thank you for helping me achieve my goals, even though they seemed hard at the time.

To my siblings:

Even though I may hate you guys sometimes, thanks for annoying me until I scream. I know you do it because you love me or just in fact because you like to see me mad. Thanks for always being my chauffeur, driving me to my friends house even when you really don't want to. Thank you for helping me with that project or essay that I couldn't quite understand….or thanks for helping me figure out how to submit my articles, because I'm not the best with those kinds of things. Thanks for making me see that my goals were reachable and in fact too small, and that I can achieve so much more. Thank you for making me realize that maybe I didn't want to do something for me, just to please someone else, and that I really hated to do it. Thank you for here for me and loving me endlessly.

To my parents:

I love you guys, what more can I say.

Thank you for supporting me in everything I've done(even if it was stupid). Thank you for helping me get to California and achieve that nationals win. Thank you for helping me when it came to school, math's just not my strong suit. Thank you for being there for me through everything. I know we've been through some hard times but your love has never wavered for a moment. Words just don't apply when it comes to thanking you. I mean I wouldn't be here, writing this, had it not been for you. So thank you!

Thank you’s are words just spoken out loud, but with the right emotion, are a very powerful thing. Thank you to everyone who's helped someone else, supported someone in time of need, and maybe that one time you opened a door for a stranger.
