Because of the change, I was incredibly worried that our friendship wouldn't be as strong (which is silly, I mean, it's 20 minutes a day). Luckily, that hasn't happened! Knock on Wood, right?
I did learn that the little conversations and the little efforts make a big difference. For example, every other day, my first period class is at the high school. However, I still go to the junior high for fifteen minutes just to see Devon, Lulu and some other friends. Although it's not a lot, it's a huge difference, and it shows that I care about them, and that I want to spend time with them.
Overall, changing schedules can suck, a lot, but I think going out of your way to do something nice and to show that they matter a lot can really help.
If you're in a similar situation or you're a really busy person, this can apply to you. Finding five or ten minute periods just to say hi and ask how a friend is doing can go a long ways.
Devon is a really cool person(: He taught me how to cube, and we go skiing a lot (even though he is about a gazillion times faster than me... haha oh well). He's a really cool, funny person and hanging out with him is so much fun (:
oh Thxs Liz!!! But in reality we both know your a faster skier than me! Dat littlest pet shop though.
