It is with great joy and, yet might i add, i twinge of sadness, that i inform you of yet another chapter closed in my young life. Alas, my 10+ year tenure as student prodigy of the Mistress Mildred Hamilton has come to an end today. With bitter-sweet memories i write this eulogy of my years as an indentured servant. As it is in every life, every good thing must come to an end. Who knows, maybe i shall now have more time to devote to the Shouter? Only time will tell. But until then, i shall enjoy my "retirement" and, alas...my FREEDOM!
