She’s on Law School and used to live in another state. She moved this year, I think, and got friends with some friends of mine at a bus stop just yesterday. They were all heading to the same party, where me and my friends would get together.
The thing is, she was completely alone until they met… which is amazing. I don’t think I would’ve had the guts myself, and it made me think. There was a time when going to the cinema by my own wasn’t a big deal at all, and I definitely miss the feeling.
Nevertheless, Vi said she was there alone because she was new in town and hadn’t made any friends yet – people at College were arrogant and unpleasant. She wore a customized Ramones shirt and got everyone looking after her at some point (we needed to go home and she had disapeared)!
I discovered she lives nearby – one or two blocks away – which is great. As soon as I get rid of my fear of inviting people over, it will turn out to be very convenient!
Yesterday was great, I’m proud of myself for taking chances and going to the party, and even prouder of Vi. I shall learn from her.
