"I met Amara Rowe the week she started school here. She watched as an old friend stuffed her face with marshmallows. She left after looking lost, so I followed her. She was by a trash can looking... frustrated. She threw away a paper and I picked it out of the trash can after she left.... it was a list. Now it wasn't an ordinary list, no, it was a bucket list, with 10 things written on it. And at the top of the list was, make a friend. And the rest of the list looked... simple. She was simple. At the bottom of the list it said, die happy. And at the time I didn't understand, I didn't think much of it. I thought that maybe she was still adding to it and it wasn't in any specific order. But I wanted to help her do everything on that list. I couldn't help her if I wasn't her friend so that is what I did first." * Amara has a health issue that no other students know about.
