Barcode Clan

Take it from someone who has moved like 14 times, friendship makes a difference in you life. I am known, in my family, for being the child who won't make friends. In Canada I didn't want to make friends. What was the point? I was leaving as soon as I could and it would create so many tears. I was miserable. I went out of my way to not do anything with anyone. At girls camp it kinda changed. There were people that could be my friends. I sat by them at church anyway. I still didn't see the point. That changed. I became friends with a lot of girls. We even gave ourselves a name. We were the Barcode Clan. (Don't ask, I don't remember!)

They decorated my room when I was in South Africa. We watched movies. We play games. We had so many inside jokes that they made me a book. We sobbed when I left. They were probably the BEST friends I have ever had. Am I friends with them now? Not really. We like things on Facebook. I skype Sarah sometimes. We spam eachother's facebook. Do we talk alot? Not anymore. But to me that doesn't matter. They were there when I needed someone and I know that they are still there if I need something. It is the memorise that counts. They will always be there no matter how old I am or where I go.

  1. Oh my goodness!!!! So cute. I think it is so sooo true that we need good friends just to make it through life. I agree with what you said about how it doesn't matter if they are going to be a life long friend or just a couple month long friend. The real important aspect behind it is that we have friends there when we need them.

    Also I love the bar code girls, and the amazing picture of you guys! It totes made my day.

    Great blog, and keep it up girly!!!!
