Response to Karisa's blog: People Change

     I had many friends who had moved away since elementary to different places. One of my best friends from elementary school had moved to Hayward when we were in 4th grade. After reading Karisa Coleman’s blog post, I started to think back to the past when we were best friends.

Now, I haven't talked to this friend in a really long time. I miss her, but she doesn't really seem to care. It's kind of sad because she was one of my closest friends in middle school and now we never talk. Just like the quote said "[People] end up having nothing to say to each other, even if they were best friends the year before."

    My best friend and I were really close friends and we knew each other since first grade. We know each other’s birthday and I still remember the first birthday present she gave me was a hello kitty glasses. Cough* I told her I love hello kitty ! Back then every morning she would come to my house have breakfast with me and we would talk and talk. Times past and she had to moved. The last time I saw her was a sleepover at her new house in Hayward and I remember how we were watching movies while having pillow fights. Those were the good times. I thought I was going to see her again after the sleepover, however that was the last day I’d seen her. :(

Later on, I had the same issue like Karisa because back in elementary school, we didn’t know anything about Facebook, Myspace, or even anything that we can contact each other on. It had past four years after not contacting each other and I finally found her on Myspace. Looking at the pictures, she had changed a lot like her styles and the way she talk to me was different. I really miss the old her. Whenever we chat, all we can say was I miss you and how’s life. We really had nothing to say and when we text each other all we can put on the conversation was a :D or a <3. Every time I think about my best friend, I just feel sorrow in my eyes and starts to tear.
