We first met in 7th grade I think. It might have been 6th, I'm not sure. She sat in front of me in health class, and she used to always draw Spongebob characters. I'm pretty sure we instantly bonded over that. She had these furry Spongebob pens, and once the teacher got annoyed and threw it across the room. I remember we were absolutely scandalized, because the nose broke off. We became super close after that. We would ride out bikes to each others houses daily. I went to her house every day before school and ate her apple pie, and we hung out every day after school. I even slept over at her house every weekend. I remember sometimes my mom wouldn't want me sleeping over, and her mom would lie to mine for me, saying that she already ordered a pizza big enough for all of us. We wrote notes to each other in a journal covered with pictures of punk bands and lyrics. Not to mention the anarchy signs. We probably had no idea what it really meant at the time, but we drew those every where. We were weird kids, who love walking in the forest behind the sledding hill and rolling down hills in the cemetery. Who can forget when we had out adventure in the woods, and both of our parents went absolutely crazy looking for us. When they finally found us they were like, crying, and we both had to go home. I remember she couldn't wear her Heeleys anymore because they were so caked with mud. And when we rolled down the hills, she got these weird red bumps everywhere. I still don't know what those were. She introduced me to from first to last and nofx, those are the first 2 things that come to mind when i think of washington dc. She was so mad when she got her old school CD player taken away. When she finally got an ipod, I remember she wanted to remember this part of a senses fail song... I think it was in let it enfold you. She taped the lyrics to the back of her ipod, and I remember us walking down Canterbury across from the cemetary, screaming those lyrics. We walked everywhereeeee. After we had graduated from 8th grade, we kind of grew out of riding bikes, but we still walked everywhere. When she liked kevin, i remember walking past his house all the time. We never went to his house or anything, we just walked past it. When I went to naz and she went to joes, we were still pretty close. Eventually, she started hanging out with Kelley, and I started hanging out with Sarah. I would hang out with her and Kelley, and she would hang out with me and sarah, but we were definitely growing apart. I didn't really mind at first honestly, and I didn't think she did either. She had her friend, and I had mine. We still talked and hung out though, so it was all good. She met skippy and we would always go to souled out together so she could see him. She liked him so much, more than he deserved... he was and is even more now a jerk. Whenever she would run away her mom or brother always called my house first... I never knew where she was haha. Sophomore year I started growing apart from sarah, and started hanging out with everyone that I do now. She transferred to proviso, and we pretty much stopped talking to each other, aside from the occasional myspace comment. The rest of Sophomore, and then Junior year, I barely spoke to her. We started talking a little bit more the summmer after Junior year, but barely enough to consider us close friends again. Then something happened with her and her brother, and she moved to Oak Park. For whatever reason, we started talking again, more and more frequently. This morning, she uploaded pictures onto myspace from when we were best friends. From graduation and grade school. From the summer before Freshman year. And I realized that I really haven't had a friend that I was so close to since her. And i realized how much I missed her. And that she was and is such a huge part of my life. This is cheesy as fuck but I guess I just realized that i miss having a best friend, I miss having her as a friend.
