Amanda and i became the best of friends when she arrived as the 'new girl' at my high school many years ago.
I guess you could say i took her under my wing and introduced her to the group of guys i would hang out with during lunch breaks.
I was a tomboy, a real boys girl.. I wore jeans,
i had purple hair and my best friend was a guy.
Amanda was stunning.. We were an odd looking pair!
We began to hang out together on weekends and i got to know her family.
I experienced the life Amanda lived out of school, the life no one knew about.
And it was a hard life.
Of course, not long after Amanda joined our school the bullying began.
The hurtful names, the taunts, the horrible rumors. I was so naive, i really didn't understand why, at the time these people were so nasty!
I soon learnt the meaning of jealousy.
To this day i still think Amanda is amazing.
She has done so much for our community and now works harder then ever to make a life for her and her now fiance.
Amanda stood by my side along with my best friend Lucy and witnessed
me marry my husband,
I feel so blessed to be able to have captured these memories
for her and Nathan.
