Hey guys! I've been part of this forum for years and the yearbook message of an old friend of mine has brought me back to ask a favor from you all. The handwriting's a little rough and my limited Russian skillz are making it hard for me to read/translate the last line.

Here is a scan of the message:

If I'm not mistaken, the first line says, "For Sara Remen (my name)" And the second name is her first and last name. I'm just unable to really read the third line. It looks like "Любпу как ... пока."

It would really mean so much to me if someone could help me out here. Inga was one of my best friends in elementary school. She was adopted from Russia at age 12 and, despite the fact we couldn't understand each other, she was the toughest, funniest, and coolest person I'd ever met. In other words, we were the only girls in 5th grade who were die-hard fans of Metallica. Sadly, the family moved away a year later and I lost contact with her. After some Googling, I found that her family dissolved the adoption because of Inga's apparent aggression toward her siblings and parents. One of the things that the family claimed was that Inga was unable to read and write Russian at the age of 12. After finding her photo in my yearbook, I flipped to the back page and saw this message she wrote to me. From what I can tell, she wasn't illiterate at all.

Anyway, I just thought I'd tell you all a little bit about the story behind this image. Thanks so much for any help you can offer!
