Ok I have several so here goes:
*My brother b/c he is my best friend in the world and he is the total opposite of me, he's who made me realize that not everyone has to be JUST LIKE ME to be worthy of being friends with
*My parents for teaching me that maybe people really
can change if they really want to and for showing/telling me every day that they love me
*My two babysitters that pretty much raised me, my parents worked full time at the hospital and these two women were there for all my milestones when I was a child. They taught me how to care about other people
*Sister Midge in the 12th grade for teaching me that there were other options in the world other than to just follow the "plan" of everyone else in my graduating class and I could DO anything I wanted to do...I almost became a nun because of her!

*Mrs. Petersen for putting her faith in me and making me the yearbook editor my senior year of HS, I finally proved to myself that I could do something that I really wanted to if I worked for it
*Dennis Miller (a prof. at my school) his class made me want to become a psychology major
*Joining Phi Mu, actually re-colonizing my chapter....this organization has taught me how to deal with so many situations and I have learned to be accepting and patient!!!
Now some bad ones:
*Those girls in middle school who made fun of me all the time and made me cry. Who's laughing now that I', the one in college and yall have dropped out of school and are doing drugs?

*The first weekend I ever spent at a college and ended up in the hospital....I could have died that night and I probably should have, luckily I got a second chance and I've learned how fragile life is and how insanely LUCKY I am to be who I am
*That stupid wrestler from the first week of my freshman year who put something in one of my drinks and in a few of my friends drinks. I definately learned to not be so careless after that. Sheesh.
Ok that is all! Great topic Tom!!!
