My Best Friendships

Improved Essays
Some of the best friendships are between you and someone you may have disliked at one time. At least that’s the case for me. I hated my best friend Victoria for the longest time when we were younger. There was no reason for me to dislike her either. I just did, and she was well aware of it. One day she came up to me at recess and even asked me why I didn’t like her, and my response was, “I just don’t.” This went on for quite a few years, until one year we played volleyball together. She was the first person I talked to at the very first practice that summer, and we clicked. Ever since that day we have been best friends. When that school year started we were inseparable. We played every sport together, rode to every game together and usually …show more content…
When the day came around that we could call our school to find out what class we were placed in Victoria, I and our friends were all hanging out. We all sat around and called one after the other and saying our teachers out loud. Victoria went first and they told her she was in Mrs.Kapicoo class. Everyone that was there that in our grade got put into Mrs.Kapicoo’s class. I went last but didn’t even want to call anymore. I was devastated thinking that all my friends were in the same class and I was separated from them. Almost in tears I finally got the nerve to call and when I asked what class I was the told me I was in Kapicoo’s class. We all knew it would be one hell of a year. Shopping for our school supplies and uniforms together Victoria and I filled with excitement. This was the first year they placed us in the same …show more content…
It seemed like no big deal because we still were with each other all the time. She was still my best friend and nothing was changing that. Although after those few summers had passed I realized once I went back to Illinois our friendship was just phone calls, text messages, facetimes and the usual visits that now seemed to be less often. I continuously threw fits trying to stay in Michigan. At one point I thought I had convinced my mom into letting me live with

My experience was somewhat neutral due to the fact that as a child I loathed reading and writing, but as I went on through my education I grew to love it.…

    Moving here from North Carolina when I was four changed my life completely, I was away from my family who I lived with my whole life, thrown into a school with a bunch of kids who lived here since they were born and told to “make friends.” This changed the next 13 years of my life to something I can never picture not having. The first four years, both my parents had full time jobs and my grandma helped raise me a lot, she taught me so many manners and how to behave, she even ended up living across the street from me for 2 of those years, they were rough for my parents, new baby, just moving, having to find jobs, making friends, and getting food on the table for me. Thats where my amazing family came in, with bringing home cooked meals…

    Mrs. Winn’s kindergarten class was probably one of my favorite elementary classes because I had my best guy friend, Cameron, in the class, and it was obviously an easy class for me. I remember whenever we colored anything or did any drawings, my teacher would always compliment my coloring abilities because I knew how to color within the lines; all the other kids had scribbles outside of the lines and their drawings would not be as neat as mine. Cameron and another boy named Jordy were my favorite people in the class and the three of us would always hang out together and play outside during recess. Jordy was my favorite until he snitched on me and told the teacher I did something I did not do. He eventually died out of my life because I did…

For that reason all of the hurt, trials, and stress those relationships brought to my life was all worth it.…
