Alexander, Rachel

To Megan Turner, I leave lots of fishy crackers to enjoy in the dugout next year, and to Lauren, I leave Ichiro the Bus. To the rest of the softball team, I leave a giant Funfetti cake and the responsibility of fixing the dugout ceiling. To Paige, Emma, Meda and Isabel, I leave purple underarmour to keep you warm on future Post trips and looking awesome on the field. Emily, I leave you our amazingly awkward flute section dances, and Olivia, a pair of rainbow pom-poms to continue the awkward cheerleading, and both of you get the quotes list. Taleia and Ladonna, I leave you purple neckties and pelvic thrusting. Jean and Sabine, I leave you dramatic readings from the Book of Mormon and a giant tub of Integration Cream. Caleb and Jesse, keep JSA running strong and don’t forget to scare the suburban kids every once in a while. Silas, I leave you full ownership of Advanced Survival and the authority to yell at the gearmaster whenever something goes wrong on a trip. Kate, I leave Queen Anne carpooling in your hands, and to you, Carly, Mia, Renee, and the rest of your EC, I leave Wagon Wheel, CMF and everything else amazing about Post. Kathy, I leave you late night conversations in the desert, and the responsibility to come visit me at Whitman and check out the climbing wall.

Chapel, Lucas

To Max the baby I leave my tall stature, because he’s the one who needs it most. I’d like to thank Max for being ridiculously generous with his awesome house (the main reason why I’m friends with him) and delicious food (the other reason why I’m friends with him), and for teaching me the joy of stroking chins. Max is also a great guy, which is the real reason why I’m friends with him. I’m gonna miss you buddy. To J Franks I leave my feelings, because he’s the only one who truly understands them (“Dude ME TOO! I ALWAYS forget to grab her butt!”). Jonathan taught me a lot about being myself, which sounds cheesy, but I gotta give him credit. He’s also filthy at the Crysis editor. One time I was walking up the stairs in front of him and he spit on me because he “got the urge”. I love you man. Jack Yates gets my body, with which to do what he pleases; I don’t really want to know. From what I’ve seen in the past, it’s not gonna be pretty. Jack is a master at war. He also taught me how much I hate that game. But I don’t hate Jack. I actually like him a lot. You’re a charming young man, Jack. David Gary gets my bear shirt so he can pretend we wore it on the same day. David, I may cringe at your mandatory daily hugs, but I appreciate the sentiment. Even if you annoy me sometimes, I’m still gonna miss you, and I can’t deny that we had some fun times in vocal jazz. Ben Geyman and Bergen Hendrickson get all my beats, and my amicable relationship with Mr. Swarner (he probably denies it, but it’s there, trust me). You guys are well on your way to becoming formidable upper-classmen, and with some fresh beats under your belt, you’ll be unstoppable. Celia gets a ferocious thunderclap and an affectionate hug afterwards. Celia, I’m really glad I got to know you better this year. You made vocal jazz bearable (I really hope Ms. Burton doesn’t read this). The next time I go on a road trip I’m calling you up so we can sit next to each other. I’m leaving Johannes with his very own Redguard. If you don’t know what that is, you’re not cool. Johannes, I would describe exchanging video game jokes with you as one of my more passionate hobbies. Humor must be one of your major skills, because your wit is level 87. Did I mention I really like you? And you’re better than me at driving stick… Kata the friendly ass gets all the forced, awkward hugs in the world, which she’s taught me are abundant. Kata has the most sing-song voice I’ve ever heard, and she gives good hugs, not that she’ll ever give you one. She also has a webcam with really dopey features. She can make herself a monkey at the zoo! IT’S SO COOL!!11!!1!1 We’re still skyping when I’m at college, by the way. Foxi Ko gets my heart (duh). But our relationship is so much more than a fleeting romance. From the first day I laid my eyes on her, I knew we’d have a special bond. Okay that’s a lie. But playing Pang 96 with her in Mr. Ross’s class was reallllly fun, even though she has tourettes (&^#% on my wenis! $*&* me in the @$$!) I’m gonna miss you soooo much. Mr. Sample, I don’t think I’m supposed to talk about you, but I thought you would want me to leave you my mathematical prowess. I’ve seen you struggling with derivatives. I really enjoyed your class. Thanks for all the beef jerky. There are too many awesome seniors for me to mention them all, but there are a few who I think I need to say a few words about. Anna Ludwig, you’re loud and violent, which I can appreciate, unless you hit me. You’ve made me two really sweet yearbooks, and are in general a pretty caring person, I have to say. I’m glad you’ve been at Garfield with me these past four years. If you promise not to beat me up, we should hang out. Zoe Barker-Aderem, I consider myself the last person on Earth who needs another mother, but your short stature balances out your bossiness, so I don’t mind. You’re a good bffl to have, and you have good taste in animated films. You also have a donk. Let’s hang out this summer. Ben Miller, one of the most accomplished bromosexuals I’ve ever met. I’m REALLY excited that we’re rooming together next year. I think your aforementioned skills might come in handy… But also your awesome skills as a friend. I don’t think I need to tell you that I’ll be seeing you this summer. Lorraine Keeler, why are you so wise? You have the sensibilities of an adult, but the coolness of a high schooler. You also put up with my eccentricities amazingly well. And you’re really funny. Hanging out with you is such a good deal, it’s like if the dollar menu was a person. I think I’ll be going to McDonald’s a lot this summer. AND OF COURSE Sam Frankel, friend, adviser, business associate, jew (kinda), fellow intelectual, lover, besssssst frieeend everrrrrr. You are all of these things and so much more. Honestly you already know all this, but meeting you freshman year was one of the best things that’s ever happened to me. You know how in romantic movies they always say “I never thought I’d find someone like you?” Well I didn’t. Thanks for being the icing AND the cake of my high school experience. Not even a blue rhino could be a better friend (you better read this, cause no one else is gonna get that). And to the other seniors I didn’t mention because I’m too poor: I couldn’t have asked for a better group of kids to go to high school with. You guys are all hella boss, and I’m glad I know every single one of you. I’m gonna miss you all! See you this summer. Seacrest out.

Choi, Emily

To my dear underclassmen, I present my will. Seeing as I don’t own anything, I can’t leave you much…oh well. Joseph, I leave you my Pokemon cards. Molly, you should host banquets in your math class next year. Jean, continue to dominate speed Blokus. Timmy, don’t die in the clarinet section…! Angela, I won’t be there next year, so please, please, please keep Paxon in check for me and the rest of humanity. Harrison, keep winning state every year, Mr. Amazing-Oboist. Sammy, three words: one word texts. Natalie, I leave you the cadenza of Wages of Sin, muahaha. And finally, Julian, my favourite freshman who still owes me a CD: I leave you the piano copy of Franck (which we will one day play, or else).

Cohen, Rebecca

I leave the following things to the following people. Amandine Lee: co-deanship of Awesome University, at least one social event per weekend, all the food I ever dropped on the floor.

Melina Edgerton: panda bread (NOT bran muffins), hedgepigs, the good music The End no longer plays. Rachel Alexander: Ceeharles et al., not showering for a week, Hot British Guy, so much more. Rachel Morin: all the hairpins I’ve stolen for waltzes, the hottest men in Tortall. Sabine Bischofberger: Andrew McKenna. Thomas Huston: a fatty book of crosswords, you guuuuuuuuys. Walter Ray: South End pride, a full ride to butler school. ‘09 editors: dinner delirium, jumping photos, infinite love for Carson. ‘010 editors: Speech function, a year without beef, the hunt for Little Otik. I know I’m forgetting a lot, but I’ll never forget how much I love you all.

Delostrinos, Cheryl

Jessica — Through thick and thin, we survived it all. Boys will come and boys will go, but we’ll always be best friends. I’ll always be there to wake you up early in the morning to do sweat box. I love you so much. I’m glad we’ll be together at the UW. Emily — Thanks for always being there for me, even when you know I did something stupid. I can always come to you for advice about anything and you always help me through it. I’m truly blessed to have a friend like you. Stay true to yourself because you’re a remarkable person. Love you.

I’m gonna miss you! Much love. Emma — So I wasn’t kidding about the cobweb lingerie. You’re definitely the funniest person I know (not to mention the sexiest).

Furthermore, I like boys, men actually, so holla. A word of advice to all freshman, play sardines in class… all seniors do it. And to the class of eleven or whatever, drink joose more often. Strong bones! I love my best friends.. I have no doubt that the party won’t stop! MC I’ll never forget your sexy moves on the dance floor.

Ditzler, Grace

Dofredo, Kyle

Team Spiderman: Ben, Duressa, Isabel, Joe, Josh, Maya, Maya, Olivia, Sam and Wolfy. Team Spiderman you were the first and last team I’ve ever had. Let it be known we dominated every one at everything because we were/ are the best. Lucky for you all you still have three years left it is really a blessing in disguise. I hope you all continue into post and give others an even better experience than you had. When you apply for staff be sure to let them know you have Kyle Dofredo’s personal recommendation. I hope to visit back some time and see you all again. If life has ever got you down refer to Philippians 4:13. Boys Cabin 1: Alex, Andre, Azer, Ben, Cody, James, Kit, Mathis and Ryan. So much drama, Ben thanks for sparking the night that got every guy in camp into one cabin. James you may have a ways to go and I will find your secret. Kit … cheated on… with… [all cheering]! The rest of you guys we were the only cabin probably in history not to get pranked. If any of you find out what James was so secretive about yalls better get a hold of me some how. Post Staff of 2009: To all of you posties I’ve spent blood sweat and tears with, this is for you. I’d first like to say that leaving post to me is like friends and family that I’ve worked and fought with through many battles over the course of four years and yet in one final battle loosing everyone to be the single survivor never to see anyone again and knowing that the pictures of times past are the only references I have. Probably to most peoples surprise over time post became more important to me than the army. I could write a book as long as the bible about my experiences and the friends I’ve made along the way. If I were able to do it all over again there is nothing I’d change and there is nothing I regret. My only problem is that the end came so soon. From that rainy night on survival to the best post memories at the end of Desert school I may have seemed like a lone ranger but without all of you I’d still be a loner. What I’m basically trying to say is thanks for a great four years. You are all my family if any of you need anything at any time feel free to give me a call. I pray to see you all again someday and that the Lord keeps you safe. Let this be my final farewell… Psalm 18.
