I wasn't bored in Science class because I had Chloe. Science is my least favorite subject. A memory I remember is when Chloe came to my brother's The Nightmare Before Christmas birthday party. He has the best birthday which is December 13th. That's the day Taylor Swift was born. He was born on her 22nd birthday. I love Taylor's song 22 (Taylor's Version) of course! It was his kindergarten birthday party. I think he only gave out the invitations to girls because all the girls in his class showed up. There we no boys in his class who showed up. Liam and his nephew who was around my brothers age came to the party.

In 2018, after the 8th grade graduation. My Mom won Taylor Swift tickets from a radio station. It was 4 floor seats for the Reputation Tour. We had two extra. I offered to bring Chloe. I told her right after that I would prefer to just go with my Mom. I was explaining the reasoning to Eleanor. I tried inviting Eleanor but she declined the invite. I was glad she couldn't go because I changed my mind. I pushed the invite more towards Chloe. I started to feel like my reasoning wasn't being understood, some of my texts Eleanor thought the tone came off as sassy. The conversation was taken out of context because it was over text. This was my first argument with Eleanor. It was all one huge misunderstanding. 06.23.2018 "YA KNOW, DONT TALK TO ME, IM DONE, UR BEING TOO SASSY. IDK HOW LONG IT WILL TAKE ME TO FORGIVE U FOR BEING SASSY TO ME LIKE THIS. BUT TILL I SAY U CAN TALK TO ME AND I'M BACK TO NORMAL, DON'T TALK TO ME! UR LUCKY IM NOT TELLING UR MOM ABOUT UR RUDENESS TOWARDS ME. (Btw, im not upset over u not inviting chlo, im mad about how ur acting to ME)".
Chloe had my Mom's number so that's who she would have received it from. Chloe was over Eleanor's house the day when I uninvited her. I suggested it to both of them but Eleanor could not go because she would be camping. The decision was made as my heart longed for more one on one time with my Mom. My personality in friendships was introverted during that period.
My Mom definitely favorited Chloe as a friend of mine because of her home life. She didn't have the most reliable parents. Chloe and Morgan were the only two friends that spent the night over in the apartment I had with my Mom. Morgan was someone in my 8th grade English class. Morgan was standoffish towards me, we didn't bond really well. A fact about Morgan is that they are non-binary. I liked that best about Morgan that they felt authentic being their true self. I had a fair amount of entertainment at the sleepover, the upstairs neighbor came over to complain about us because we were being too loud!
Eleanor and I gave each other the silent treatment for the rest of the summer. I did find something on her YouTube channel once we were friends again. She made a YouTube speed drawing for Rory's birthday party that summer when we weren't talking. Rory was a friend I had in 8th grade. Our friendship ended as fast as it started. She was convinced she was dating a K pop star and would lie to the friend group about it. I got into an argument with her telling her to invite me to the wedding with lobster. I'm still waiting for the invite!
She was going to draw me in the friend group drawing but decided not to. She wrote as a pop up text in her YouTube video "ok so the unicorn at the top of the screen is katy, my old friend... i decided not to add her since we are not friends... but if katy u are watching this, do u still wanna be friends..?". It was a sweet gesture. She posted that YouTube video July 17, 2018. I wasn't keeping up with her YouTube channel during the break we took. My Mom gave the two tickets to her friends. Overall, I had a marvelous time at the Reputation Tour.
