My First Love
Freshman Year Love is the greatest gift we can ever hope to give or receive. It is the one thing that can over come so many of the difficult times that we are faced within life. Love can turn the ugliness in the world into the most beautiful portrait. My first love started during my freshman year. Falling in love with my best friend changed the person who I am today. Becoming a freshman in high school, made me feel like one of the older kids. I wasn’t a kid in middle school anymore. High school was a new surrounding with new people to meet. In all of my six classes, I only had one friend that I knew. His name was Michael Thompson. Michael was in my fifth period math class. He was always a class clown. It all started when Sadies came. Sadies was a dance for a girl to ask a guy to a dance, and to dress as twins. My best friend and I wanted to go, so we decided on whom I should take. It was easy for her because she had a boyfriend at the time. Knowing Alexis’s boyfriend Tyler was best friends with Michael, she insisted on me asking him. She thought it would have been nice since we were all best friends. At the time I wasn’t interested in taking him, but Alexis persuaded me. She told me how great of a guy he was and how I would have so much fun if I went. I called him a few minutes later, he was so happy to hear that I wanted him to be my date. Gonzalez 2
While shopping for our outfits, we got to spend time together. We got to learn more about each other. That day, I started to like him. The following week, Sadies came. We were both looking forward to the dance. We had such a great time with one another. We got together on April 27, 2008. Michael and I were like best friends, it was hard for something or someone to break us apart. We were always with each other and we always had fun. He was the perfect boyfriend in my eyes. Michael was very sweet and he had a great personality. He had a sense of humor and he always made me laugh. During the second year we were together, we started arguing. We were arguing over the small stuff. We argued over hanging out with friends, being around each other, and other things that shouldn’t have mattered. Through all of our arguments, in the end we always got through them. We worked out our problems until one of us gave up. Eventually, he gave up. It broke my heart knowing the break up was because of our arguments. I was losing my best friend over anger issues. If there will ever be another opportunity, I’d be more mature about our relationship. I would solve our problems like an adult. Over all, Michael and I needed a break. We broke up on December 17, 2010. Losing a best friend was very heart breaking for me, but it made me become the person who I am today. I became a stronger person than I was before .Going through my first love, was a nice experience that I can never forget. Love is used so often that we never really give it a thought until we have gone through it. Michael was my first love and there’s more to come. Falling in love with my best friend made me grow into an adult. I became very independent and more mature. Young adults will become mature once they they have gone through a situation that makes them realize they aren’t a child anymore. Gonzalez 3
Today, I keep my head up high and chase after my dreams. Michael will always be my best friend.

    High school is supposed to be the best years of a teenager’s life and for me it was. The first high school I ever attended was Eldorado high school, home of the Sundevils. The first day of my freshman year I woke up to my mom’s voice that morning, “Get up!” she yelled from my room door. It was the perfect morning, the smell of pancakes and bacon coming from the kitchen and my dad ironing my clothes before he goes to work. The first day of my freshman year was just like any other freshman’s. I walked to each of my classes nervously in those crowded and long hallways but mostly filled with excitement because I knew there was a lot of exciting adventures to come. After the first couple of months I was no longer a random girl that walked the wall ways. Everyone I associated with called me Nayynayy, that nickname stuck with me throughout my whole high school career.…

    In middle school, I dreaded high school. It was a whole new world full of challenges that I only had a glimpse of from reading Perks of Being a Wallflower and Catcher in the Rye. I spent much of my time worrying about what high school would be like. But I never imagined that I would become a person that would not only conquer the challenges but also help others face theirs.…

    What is love? I never knew until I was fourteen year old at my first horse show. My family has always told me that when I loved someone or something unconditionally for exactly what it was without expecting anything in return, and when I was away from whatever I loved I would feel like something was missing, and only then would I truly understand love. At that first horse show I understood what they told me. For me my first horse show changed my life, it made me feel so alive and I never wanted to leave. Everyone has their own definitions of love but mine is for a series of events and is much different from the typical "love" that most people understand.…

    Our relationship began like very few relationships do, on Facebook. In June of 2009, after I had been accepted into a Fall 2009 freshman class, a boy said hello in a message and a 4-page paper could not even touch the surface of our relationship in those past 2 years, but I will do my best to explain as much as possible. Over the next few months, the relationship evolved from Facebook messages, to the live chat, until he finally asked me for my number and the texting began. Then one summer day, my phone rang, and we had our first telephone conversation, although sparked due to a drunken impulse from the mystery man on the other end. Over the span of a few months, I learned so much about this future classmate of mine, from his music taste, to his life in Southern California, and much more. I’m not sure if I’m proud or not of how well versed I am in the subject of Computer Mediated Communication. However, no matter how I feel about our introduction and first spoken words, I would certainly say since the day I got that first Facebook message, the relationship with this boy has been nothing less than interesting.…

I saw him sitting in a bench next to a tree. “Nathan!” I called him. “Oh hey Hailey let's go?” “Let's go where?” “Uhm I prepared something” then he blushed a little. We started walking towards a table that has flowers, foods, drinks, plates and etc. He handed me a bouquet of rose, I remembered he used to tell a red rose represents his love for me. I thanked him then I sit on the chair. He put a bread and variety of fruits on my plate, he also gave a cup of tea. “Do you want something else? I’ll buy it real quick” he offered. “No I'm fine, I ate breakfast already.” He started eating so I started eating my food as well. Both of us didn't talk of a good 15 minutes, it was extremely…

    It truly is amazing how fast time flies. It feels like it was just yesterday we were ditching school to go get lunch at Portillos and then going back to school only to find ourselves ending up in Dean Chamberlin’s office getting in trouble for leaving school. I swear we spent half of high school in that office. I remember when we were applying for college and we applied to all the same schools thinking we would end up going to the same place. I know both of us were pretty sad when we realized that wasn’t going to happen. I’ll never forget the night before I was leaving for school and you came over to say bye. I was scared and nervous about a lot of things but mostly because for the first time in my life I wasn’t going to have my sidekick and wingman. I expressed that to you and what you said has stuck with me to this day. You said, “B, life is about attacking your comfort zone. You can’t grow as a person unless you step out of your comfort zone and experience things you’re not use to. We’re only going to be a phone call away and no matter what I will always be there for you.” For that, I can’t thank you enough as those few words changed my life. Those words are so true and I think you know you would have never met Emily unless you attacked your comfort zone, which brings me to my next point.…

    In the mist of my family and school problems I came across a gentlemen that I quickly fell for. His name was Michael and he was going into his second semester of college. On the other hand, I was still struggling to get out of my third high school. Ironically, his mother was an educator which made it hard to introduce myself with my circumstances, hiding from her preconception of me. My friends were now in college, while I was sitting in an alternative school. It was very difficult for me to attend school and balance my over-night shifts as a waitress so I can support myself financially. Not only was I going through the stress of not being home but I was dealing with the fact that I had no insurance for myself for the forthcoming days. I was not mentally and not fit to even try getting back into high school again!…

    I walked up to the front doorstep of my house to find a dozen red roses. I was overwhelmed with excitement that someone might actually more than like me. I picked up the flowers and hurried inside. I heard something drop to the floor and looked back to see a little envelope laying on the floor with ‘Jamie’ written on the front. I couldn’t help but let out a squeal. All I was thinking was that I was going to find out who my secret admirer was. I walked inside and placed the flowers in a vase. I then opened the envelope; it read ‘Meet me at the beach’. ‘Who could this be from?,’ I wondered, ‘It must be my crush, Matt Dawson’. I pulled my phone out of my pocket and sent a text to Jordan; ‘I’VE RECEIVED FLOWERS FROM A…

    Lots of people especially teenagers are still confused with the word “true love”. They often misinterpret it and think that they already found it, but in fact, it is just an infatuation. We should be aware that true love and infatuation differs greatly with each other. Infatuation is an intense feeling wherein only sexual attraction matters to the two persons. It is a short-lived physical desire. True love is also an intense feeling but it is deeper than infatuation. The story of Cupid and Psyche is the most suitable example to illustrate the word “true love”.…
