September 9th, 2009 was the first day of sixth grade.

I was starting a new school, where everything was fresh and unfamiliar. The morning was hectic and daunting. Third period was computer class. I was lost and late, and I couldn’t find it. Finally, I saw some other girl walking the same way. We walked into class together, a united and tardy front. We sat together all semester. Ten years later, I’m happy to call that girl my sister. Ten years of tears and laughter and family.

I’m so thankful I was late and lost under those stars, because I met my best friend.
