What I Learned In My Homeroom

I used to assume things about people based on how they acted in school. For example, during my sophomore year of high school, I disliked a girl in my homeroom simply because she was too happy and nice. She never complained or showed distaste for anyone or anything in school, and she never seemed to have problems with others. I thought that she was being phony, because in high school people are rarely always happy and nice to others. I never talked to her or went near her, because of my assumption, until our senior year. We were placed next to each other in art class, and slowly I began to realize people aren’t always how they seem. My judgment of her was completely wrong. I learned who she truly was, and now she’s my best friend.
