They talked about how proud Billy was of his son, how good of a life he would make for himself, and he told…

Having a large group of friends is great because you always have someone to talk to. But there is always that one friend who is a bit more special that the rest of them. This is your best friend, the one…

It made me sick and angry, that her life was thrown away so easily just because her boyfriend failed to use proper protection. My acceptance over the truth eventually broadened along with my best friend’s belly…
. We all lose friends; it is inevitable. Despite our efforts, friends drift apart and move away, or we merely find other social groups that suit us. During this time, we may remain close friends or distant acquaintances with one another. We may even experience an outfall due to an argument or betrayal. In rare cases, unforgiveable actions thrash the line of friendship. Depending on the situation, every individual acts differently. Burdened by low self esteem and eternal struggles,…

A new school and new friends led to my world being forever changed. Prior to eighth…
from a friend of mine. At the time we were not all that close, and we pretty much just talked inside of school. Little did I know that we would become inseparable the very next day. The text message said, "Can you come over for dinner tonight?" I asked my mom, and she told me that I could not go, because she did not know my friend 's mom.

Everyone saw her as the tall, outgoing, gorgeous blonde with long perfect hair, that was also the cheer caption that everyone loved. People constantly told us that…
In April of 2012, on a spring break day, my sister and I had no clue that this normal-seeming day would turn into a day full of surprise. Maya, my sister, was four years old with blonde hair and eyes as light blue as a clear sky. Many people said her hair was as soft as silk. I, on the other hand, was seven years old with dark brown hair and chocolate eyes. The morning was a typical spring morning near the beach in Santa Cruz, foggy and cold. My mom, dad, sister and I had just approached our…
