Dear Sacred Heart University,
Four years have come and gone faster than I ever imagined. I know I will remember you though, throughout the rest of the journey of my life. Saying goodbye to you is probably one of the hardest things I have had to do. I don't want to move on from you, but my time is up here. I promise never to forget any of the memories you have provided me with.
I know I haven't always acted greatful toward you. I've complained more about FLIK everytime I've eaten there. I've parked illegally more times than legally (but only because the parking situation sucks, so don't blame me for that...sorry), and remember that time I pulled that all-nighter in the media lab? Well I never told you but I ended up sleeping through my class the next morning and I got a zero on the quiz I was supposed take. I'm sorry if I haven't been the "model student," I just want you to know that I wouldn't change a single thing in the past four years. I've grown up and learned so much from you. I'm also sorry for all the times I've drank too much in the freshman dorms. I know you hate when students do that.
Through everything though Sacred Heart, you have been good for me. You've made me into a more mature, responsible person and my parents can't thank you enough for that. When I move on into the real world, I promise to take all the valuable lessons I've learned here, with me. If I could stay a little longer, trust me I would. It's just for the best that I go like this, it's just a part of moving on, but I really hope we can still be good friends. I'll come back and visit.
Sincerely with Love,
Kelly Ryan
