When I was twelve, I had one and only one goal in mind!324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYyftqgTioe
I needed to make friends before my 13th birthday, so that someone other than my parents and my dogs would show up for it.324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8z3jhjZ5T3
So, I was beaming and ready to go to my second class of fencing.324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3C6ZxXpHEp
I threw on a T-shirt and shorts, all ready to go out and have fun!324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFF18AgF8zP
I had actually, somehow, found someone who liked three of the things I liked! 324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMm39qGdxWK
I couldn't believe it. 324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEstTgw7Fle
Sure, she did seem a little shy, and maybe not super nice, but not super mean either!324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD2bjLt16gv
Maybe we could still be friends?
Best friends even.
And either way, I thought, cheerfully getting into the car, it was still really fun to fence. 324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWvrPJNNFR3
I had been practicing the perfect poses and everything. 324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjuRnlDDuWC
So, we went.
And problem one arised.
We had...misread the time, and gotten there thirty minutes late.
My heart sunk when the Teacher told me I would just have to sit there and watch while everyone else practice, and I forced myself to hold back my tears that were burning.324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxRxUT2k6JL
I was just being stupid, and who would cry in front of everyone? 324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl9MWVqCkDC
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡikn3EBRpuk
Besides, I could talk to my friend...right?324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAD8OW2ch8B
"Hi," I said to her, trying my best to smile, noticing she was talking to another boy around my age. 324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXqIiXkhdR4
"Hey," She said flatly, like I was being weird for trying to talk to her, then she turned her attention back to her friend.324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8EBvTBQw2U
I tried to talk a little more, I tried to play with them a little more, but each time, they just shut me down.324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCT5yabo3fJ
So, I sat, by myself, for the full class.324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡocXldFzsUw
324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNZR1GX0VfU
I couldn't do anything; I couldn't talk to anyone. 324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Q7Z9rjYyk
And I tried my best not to cry.324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6CMGtKw1Cq
Then my parents got me ice cream and cheered me up by being just to hilarious for their own goods!324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx80DQ9slwr

I know this story isn't super sad, but most of the time when I'm down it's anxiety, or it's just a bunch of different memories and problems combining together, or I'm just upset and I don't know why.
But, also, this memory leads to one of my happiest memories! (My parents cheering me up) so that's also really nice!
