The Making of a Best Freind
The inevitable had arrived; my family was moving to the sunshine state of California once and for all. Although I had known about the move nearly a year, I dropped into a state of dismay as the move drew closer. I had a long established life in my current home of Minnesota, which I wasn't ready to let go of. Being the timid 13 year-old boy that I was, entering the 7th grade in a new environment was the equivalent of swimming across the Pacific Ocean in my adolescent mind. To make matters worse, the differences between Minnesota and California were infinite. Moving only 15 days prior to the start of school, I took notice at the lack of hospitality compared to “back home”. I assumed my attempts at making friends would be useless with these covert people, which almost seemed foreign to me. Little did I know that my soon-to-be best friend was literally right next door. One searing august afternoon, I was riding my modest 50cc scooter, a prized possession at the time, around my new and unfamiliar street.

Prior to the move I had my doubts, but moving to California was the best thing that ever happened to me. Without the move Sash would be just another young adult face in the world to me. He has always and will always be a significant figure in my life as long as were both still breathing. No person has, or will ever come close to Sash in compassion, understanding, and true companionship. Sash is my best friend, and nothing but death can change that. He changed my life forever, and made me realize what a perfect friend is. After 6 years of knowing Sash, we are still inseparable. Our friendship only continues to evolve and strengthen with every passing day. He helps guide me threw these rocky, confusing times. Without the making of the best friendship of my life, I would not be who I am today. That is why I am eternally grateful for my best friend in t
