So I had this drama teacher in high school, and everyone though that this teacher was just THE COOLEST.  She was MRS. GREGORY, you know?  Like she was important enough, and awesome enough, that her name was said in this awed reverence that needed all caps to fully explain. The thing is though... I didn't really like her.  I mean, sure, she wasn't a bad teacher.  She wasn't mean or dull or anything like that.  I just got the sense that she acted, all the time.  Like someone had said to her "Okay, Mrs. Gregory, you're going to be a DRAMA TEACHER for the next 15 years.  ACTION!"  And from there on she did everything that she thought a DRAMA TEA

I know that you're not in the best place right now, and I wish I could do something about it.  It's hard to try and support you in this though... how can I say I know you'll go, and that I support it, when I'm dreading the day you'll tell me you know when you are leaving?  I know it's my job to be there for you, my job to be there unconditionally, and I am!  I just don't know how to tell you.  I just don't know how to be happy for you when even thinking about being here, without you, makes me want to cry.  What I can do for you though is just let you know that I'll spend the next two years waiting for you to come back.  I won't put my life on
