Aimee~

You hear that song in the background? This was the song that I was playing when I read your letter in the MGC. It's an old song called "Hero" and it reflects the way that I see you in my eyes, and in my heart. I felt so damn bad for you when Mr. prick and Capn' Doody were on you case just because they were so blindly jealous of your artwork they had no other way to steam it out. It wasn't right of all the girls to join in and say "you shouldn't have said that" because they knew inside that if they had been placed in that spot, they would have done the same thing. I just wanted to take them and hit them with a pillow!

okay..on to the actual letter....

Your Probably wondering why I did this for you. Well, its mostly because of the MGC thing, I admit. I think your one hell of a person for sticking to your intuition and doing what you love, regardless if other people are trying to cut you down for whatever sick reason they have. Its downright honorable for someone to shrug off as much crap as I have seen people dish at you for the small amout of time that I have considered you a friend, a teacher, and an idol. From Lord Eli, to "you don't need to know who," just keep on ignoring all the bad comments! Your doing the right thing by not drawing attention to the fact that they suck @$$ and you don't. ;D~

I just want to say that you are one of the coolest people around, and I think you have a keen personality, one that draws friends to you like a moth to a flame. You'll never be able to comprehend how much you blow my shoes off every time you update with a picture that I could'nt pull out of my green keister if I had all the lessons in the world and I was a professional working for 5 Billion a year. It makes me sad to see you say that the competition out there will grab you by the ankle and pull you into oblivion. If it helps Aimee, I think everyone else is more afraid of YOU then you are of them! In example, I went to a collage (Iowa State University) to see the arts program, and guess who's page was pulled up on the comp. lab. computer in the 3D graphics hall? YOURS! I was amazed! I swear to god I am not lying to make you feel better, bullshitting you in any way, shape, or form! These collage kids were looking at your page! (Someone else was on Stephanie's Nethersphere page too....)

Okay, I better close.

In ending, I just want to say that if you ever feel bad, or need a shoulder to cry on, I may be 5 years younger than you, but I'll always be here, no matter what. You have potential, you have spirit, and if all else fails, I have a card to Sams club, your school address, and a 72 pack of Dr. pepper. I think that you should sit down, give yourself a pat on the back, and say "God dammit..I deserve this! I deserve every shred of respect because I work hard and if people are going to be mean SCREW EM'!!"
