GREG NG I hove spent the last four years here asking myself, Why? Was it all worth it? Was it a misroke? I don't know yet. Ask me again later. The best thing that I had ex- perienced at Gould were all the people that passed my way. All of those who were close to me will always hold a special place in my heart. Memories serve their purpose. To my mom and dad and my family who were sup- portive of me from the start, thanks, I love you all. Hove a pleasant tomorrow. SHAWN LASKER Doughboy'’ Pugnax” What's it oil been for?
