I have no idea what to write as a description. Honestly this book is like a public diary that probably has no meaning for you what so ever. Enjoy I guess.
I don't know about you guys but I'm friends with this one person who is my most unlikely friend. And sometimes I think about this and find it so hard to believe we even get along.
So just about 3 years ago this guy and I were paired up by our tech teacher to do this bridge building project. I really didn't know him and he didn't know me. Now to build this mini bridge you had to use these little pieces of would and then glue them together. After they were all done they would be test for their strength.
Now for some insane reason I decided to build a curved bridge. This may not sound that bad but it meant we had to break the long sticks into tiny pieces to make the curve. It took us longer than any other group.
The worst part is that, even though it was my idea, I had him to all the work. Trust me guys, 3 years ago was a rough time and I was never myself and you know I'll just make another chapter about that. I was crazy during that class. And I probably scared the shit out of this poor guy. It was ridiculous.
So finally our bridge was done. It broke right when the strength test started. We were both sad. And then we went our separate ways.
1 year later. There's this huge group project for English in 7th grade. And because I'm always put in the worst group I end up with all the people you wouldn't want.
My teacher first had people volunteer to be "the leaders". Now the guy that I worked with the year before got chosen to be a leader. Then those people got to choose two people. So he chose the people he knew the best. (Just a side note, I was part of the goody two shoes clique and he was part of the weird geeks/nerds clique. Although most of them weren't that good in school).
Then my teacher goes on randomly placing other people in the groups. I'm one of the last people left and his group needs one more person. I just remember praying to God that my teacher wouldn't put me that group. But he did.
That project was awful. Half the group didn't do any work at all. The first day working together this guy and I spent the whole time arguing. We both hated each other. Since we were so behind on this project- *sigh* again- we had to have group Skype calls so we could work on stuff at home. Usually these were just distractions.
So in the end our project sucked. Debatably by this guy and I, I put in the most effort. He disagrees.
And you'd think for the second time we would go our separate ways. But we didn't. Somehow we became friends.
We texted each other towards the end of summer. And the during school. And still to this day. We went from hating each other to knowing everything about each other.
And it isn't even the project disasters that make our friendship so unlikely. We have so little in common. He likes old rock and country music. I like dream pop. I'm obsessed with grades and the only reason he cares is because of his moms. (Fun fact, he's raised by two lesbian moms and two gay dads). He watches gamers and I watch everything besides gamers. He likes sports and I like dance. I'm a fangirl and he isn't, so he has to listen to all my craziness over Tronnor.
And there are so many other things. In general he's what he would call "a teen boy" and I'm an "innocent girl who's sometimes still 5 years old". It's a crazy, unexpected friendship. But he's my best guy friend.
So I say go be friends with that one person you've never talked to before. It doesn't matter if you're totally different. It could still happen.
And just to show how strange we are, here is an average text conversation:
