Wednesdays were "enrichment", when we would go to Valley Oaks Charter School, where I met Josh, my best friend.

Never again would I be able to appreciate a PC. This event sealed my obsession with Apple.

As lame as it may sound for a significant event in one's life to occur in a group iMessage, that is precisely what happened. One member of the chat, Anna, asked my friend Cameron and I why we were friends with Josh. I immediately replied "BECAUSE HE'S AWESOME", but Cameron responded, "because he's a good friend." Though I somewhat knew this subconsciously already, it was at this point I realized that true friendship does not care about what someone does or has, but who they are.

My best friend moved to Colorado. That was hard. Very hard.

I was sore the first few weeks, now it's a lot of fun. I have dreams of reaching varsity.
