My side of the Friendship

My side of the friends goes much the same as Amber's. Here's my story:

In my homeschool group and lady set up something so you could get a Alaskan pen pal form another homeschool. I thought that it would be fun, but I honestly didn't think that it would last very long. I forget things and procrastinate, and I knew that I would forget to write back, and the same for my pen pal. So I filled out the application and sent it in. I was suppose to get two pen pals, because one person would get the information I filled out on the application and I got a different person's information. I never did receive a letter from my second pen pal, but I did get an information card. The lady tried to match information, and I got a pretty good match. The sheet said she loved to dance and write, and that she collected bouncy balls (which I did too). So I wrote to her, and she wrote back, and that's how it all began. That was about a year ago. Now our friendship has grown immensely. We have never seen each other in person, nor talked on the phone or even heard each other’s voices. We chat online whenever we are both on (the 4 hour time difference can sometimes be a challenge), and we email and, of course, write letters the "old fashion" way. Now we have a blog, where we will write about dance, which we both love; our friendship; and whatever else we feel connects us together.

I am so happy to have Amber for a friend, and I can't wait to meet. We are hoping sometime this summer, and we are making plans and getting all excited!

By the way, I live in MI and Amber lives in AK.

I hope you check this blog often, and please leave comments.

Have a nice day!
