When I was in sixth grade, I had a very close friend who was in a different academy. I was hurt and upset when she began to favor other girls in her academy. In a jealous rage, I embarked on a journey full of ignored texts, "I'm busy" answers. I refused to even talk to her. We drifted greatly apart.
After a while, I began to make more and more friends in my academy. Looking back, I realize that she was just making friends in her class. It was me being jealous and mean that left her running.

My friend misunderstood me when I told her a joke. I asked her what school she was going to, and she said a performing arts school. I said, "Why? You don't have any talent besides playing on your blackberry." I meant it as a joke, but I did realize that it hurt her feelings. We decided not to be friends anymore.
About 7 months later, we decided it was stupid that we weren't friends and we decided to be close again. NOW I know that she takes things very personal and that will be the last time I say a joke to her that might hurt her feelings. Hopefully since we are neighbors, we stay close friends forever!

We hope this blog will encourage Reed students to speak their minds and respond to each other in a friendly, safe, environment. We hope it will bring students closer together and help students meet new people that they didn't even know existed at our school. This blog will be run by students with a little help from teachers. It will be run by us because we know exactly what we feel, and we want to know and understand each other. This blog is a new way to share what is going on around school.
