This page is to Alysia McPhereson She is the wildest and most fun person - MY age, anyways - I've ever met. We mat two weeks into the 8th grade when I first moved here, and she taught me everything I know about being unique. I had a lot of enemies when I first moved here - and I still do - and Ally was the one that gave me tips and ideas on how to get past them with out getting in any trouble - with the people that hated me because I was new, OR the principal. So because of her I survived my first year here.

Throughout our eighth grade year, we bacame best friends, and I only got into one fight with her, and none in the years since then. It was stupid accually, I told her that she was afraid of someone and I got thrown into a wall... my fault. I knew she hated that. After a while we forgot about it, and bagan our usual tyranny against our school - we were pretty bad. We'd steal keys from the janitors' office and find out what they go to, use bolt cutters on padlocks to the gates that lead upstairs, go to the locker room and borrow things on a no-return basis, and skip lunch - now THAT was fun. The students in the Junior high were not allowed to go anywhere but either outside or in the cafeteria for lunch, and the halls were gaurded by the staff members and aids. We all got a REALLY bright idea. I went and asked for a bathroom pass, went to the doors in the math/science wing that led outside, and used my nifty little 7/32 tork wrench to unlock the doors, went back to give the pass back to the teachers, and then we all would enter through the doors and wreak havoc on the posters and walls and people of the school. The school was small, so we were always caught, but we came back in and had more fun - only seldom did we get any sitations.

Our freshman year, Alysia's house burned down and she had to move to Sisters - a good 45 min. away from here. We talked on the phone sometimes, and she told me of how much better it was there than here. I don't blame her a BIT. However, it wasn't much fun with out her here.

This year, she moved back. I saw her the first day of school and as it turns out, she was living with her sister near town, and her mom planned on buying a house - not even a mile and a half from me. (I've tried walking that distance to her house, but I didn't know which one was hers - she and Aaron her brother had told me it was a grey house with a horse, but that's all there was, grey houses with horses. It was a mess!) We still hang out and talk, but we both have friends the other doesn't know very well or care for. We have two classes together - US History and English 9 (we're repeating English 9). We try our hardest to give people hell, we honestly do, but we usually have other things on our minds... Alysia has a fiance and I am trying to get back to bringing up my grades after getting kicked out of school for them last year. (I'm doing much better by the way.) But I think it's safe to say that we are still best friends and hopefully we'll stay that way for a long time.
