Well, by the end of the eighth grade, me and Emma had completly drifted apart. It was a mutual thing, but I missed her. Instead, I hanged out with this girl named Yari. She was really nice and she introduced me to friends. I found out we had a lot in common. Ever since I was young, the only music I had ever taken a liking too was rock. I also listened to some mexican music, but I could never stand rap. At lunch, I hanged out with Yari and a group of friends. Our group of friends consisted of Mexican, Salvadorean, and white rockers. Music is what linked us all together. Some of the guys used to bring a soccor ball and we would all play soccer during lunch. Sometimes we would secretly take out our ipods (only a couple of us though, cuz most of us didnt have any yet) any listen to music. One of my guy friends even taught me to ride a skateboard:)

Outside of school, some of us would go to the mall, hangout, and eat icecream. I started noticing how I dressed. I bought band shirts, hoodies, skinny jeans, etc. I never really noticed any of that before, but it made me feel good to dress nice for once in my life. Of course, my parents started to notice too. Especially since I was asking them for money a lot more often.

2 weeks before I started highschool, I went to get a haircut. One with bangs and choppy layers. My hair was naturally curly and frizzy, so i ended up buying a hair straightner too.

Lots of my friends complimented me and on the first day in highschool, I made lots of new friends. It was sort of funny how many people I was attracting. I met these "scene kids" and they were pretty cool. At lunch time, I had no idea who to sit with, but before long I met up with my old friends, and we sat together with some new friends. In the end, me Yari and these four new people stuck together. They were, Robert, David, Lalo, and Ivette.

We were good frinds and everything was cool

Then Yari and David started going out. There was a lot of drama and they ended up ditching us for a long time.

Meanwhile, I had a really strong frienship with this guy named Omar. He was a regular mexican hotie, and i liked him a lot.

nxt chpter will be called.. Drama
