We met in 4th grade, you moved from the United States to my town, Plymouth, England. You seemed so innocent, lost and scared when you walked into my classroom that day. I'll never forget that day. That wonderful, sunny Tuesday. May 2nd, 2006. You were seated next to me and you looked so nervous so I decided to try and make you feel comfortable here. "Hi, I’m Thomas Daley but you can call me Tom" I said with a smile. "I'm Michelle Clark" you said with your sweet American accent. "Do you want to play with me on the playground at free time?" I asked. "Sure, that sounds like so much fun!" you exclaimed and you got more excited. I really liked when you got excited, it made me happy. You were the sweetest girl I've met.

So, free time finally came and I ran you to the swings with me because they always got taken pretty quick and I wanted to take you to them and talk to you on them because everything always more fun on the swings right? No? Ok, I’m tacky. "So Michelle, tell me about yourself" I said wanting to know everything about you. You fascinated me. We started swinging and your medium length, wavy, brown hair started blowing in the breeze and your crystal blue eyes shone brightly in the sun. You looked so perfect. "Well, I come from a small town in North Carolina. Kitty Hawk to be exact" you said in a calm tone and smiled slightly and closed your eyes as you swung back and forth in the sun. I couldn’t take my eyes off you as you spoke. "I love to be outside. I love the color pink so much. I'm also a big fan of marine life because Kitty Hawk is in the Outer Banks of North Carolina, which is surrounded by water and connected to the state of North Carolina by a bridge" you said and you sounded so intelligent. "Wow, you really know a lot about Kitty Hawk, you speak about it so intelligently" I spoke I’m amazement. “Ha, well I prepared myself for this. I knew a lot of people would ask me questions about where I’m from so, I learned everything I could about my home" you said and smiled, pleased with yourself. "Well, keep going I want to know more" I said. I just wanted to know everything about you. "Well, as I was saying before I was interrupted by you" you said with a smirk and sarcasm in your voice” I really like marine life, because my home is surrounded by water. Since I’m surrounded by water, I really like to swim but, the sport I love to do the most is diving. Diving has been my life since I was five. Not to sound like I'm bragging but I would say I’m pretty good at it" you said smiling.

You have been smiling a lot and I really liked it. I felt my face turn hot so I looked up to the sky. We were still swinging. I knew we would be really great friends once you mentioned diving. "Wow, you dive too? So do I! I'm the only one in school who does. Now, I seem to have a diving buddy!" I said with a smile even though I know that last part was really, really corny. You laughed and said "Yeah same here! Nobody at my old school did. They all thought it was really weird. Some people made fun of me but others think it’s really awesome because I flip and stuff." I couldn’t stop smiling at you once you told me you were a diver too. I was probably smiling like an idiot but I don’t care, I've never been so happy in school before. "People are mainly nice here so I doubt you will get made fun of. Especially a girl as nice and sweet as you!" I said and mentally face palmed myself. C'mon Tom! You should have used better words! But, she is more amazing than words can describe!

From that day on I knew we would be friends. We spent the rest of free time talking and laughing on the swings and the rest of the school day bonding and getting to know each other better. But, I spoke too soon about people being nice here. That was 2006, 4th grade. Now, its 2012, a new ballgame, were juniors in high school. People are nice to you about diving, but I guess they find it weird if a boy dives. Is it the Speedo or something? Who knows? I guess the saying "People can change" applies nicely here. Because boy this isn’t 4th grade anymore. Not even close.
