Have you ever had one of those times where you hear about someone you knew along time ago and all you can think is "What the fuck?". I've had that a plenty, and it's happened again.
I guess I should have seen it coming. Last year I heard about a good friend I used to have named Sarah. I used to be in a riding class with her, I hung out at her house a few times, but when she had to switch days after a few months we grew apart. Then the next year we met up at an equestrian camp. Last year I was informed of how she got into drugs, was actually expelled from school at the end of grade 7, which was the summer I met her at camp. Then her father told her mother she either choose him, and move to Calgary with him, or choose Sarah and he'd leave. She chose her husband, and Sarah was shipped off to some realitve or something. That was my first "What the fuck?" moment regarding Sarah.
On Friday, dear old Mary informs me that while looking at Sarah's MSN profile, she saw pictures showing she was pregnant. What makes me think "What the fuck?" is that she is the same age as me, our birthdays if I recall correctly are close. We had similar interests and then 2 or 3 years later she's a druggie who is seven months pregnant and I'm a loner who lives in the basement, occasionally leaving to get more books or hang out with Mary.
God, I hate being a teenager.
