Crush 1 and 2

Aug 12, 2007 12:38

This made me squee severely. I have a NENA fetish and won't deny it. I have followed her career from the start; was just a child when she appeared on the scene. I love her and, in hindsight, she just might have been my first female crush. I love all she stands for in terms of my own history ( Read more... )

I have always been a thinker, extremely adventurous {more so than she was in the end} but calculated in terms of risk - and I admired those who would just dive into things head first.

I know what you are saying. I feel the same.

As for friend, well, I don't think I had a friend in the real sense until past 12 (sad!). But there were always a lot of kids around.

Are you an only child? I am.

Nope, I have a sister, but she's five years younger, so not much of a friend when one was oneself only eight.

Ah yes, that makes sense. 5 years is a huge gap when you're a kid.

Wow, I wonder what happened to them. Nothing bad, hopefully. The girl mentioned above was my best friend from age 3 to about 9. I found her online now and am trying to get in touch. It's exciting and bizarre at the same time to see what she looks like now.

My best friend at age eight was my neigbor Robin. A cute blond girl, born into a VERY religious family.

She married very young (at 14 - I heard) and now lives somewhere in Montana.

WHAT?! At 14? What religion were they?

prmntwanderlust August 22 2007, 09:00:47 UTC

They were Mormons.

I often wonder what her life is like now.

Her Dad was some sort of an important figure in the church.

They were the first people I met that actually said Grace before dinner.

So many religious groups here, it just amazes me. In Europe it's basically catholics and protestants and that's it without these 50000 subgroups. Some of the American ones literally sound like sects/cults to me. It's funny how the US officially seperates church and state because compared to European countries who do not, America is in fact FAAAAAR more religious and "god" is quoted every 5 minutes, including on money and other government-related things. Not to mention the uhhh, so-called "President" and other political figures. It really makes no sense at all. /observation of the unreligious. :P

Maybe you could google your friend or find her on classmates.com - I've found some people that way I never thought I would find.
