Amanda Lara | Rossini-Hein | All of my favorite memories have to do with Lea Schaffer, whom I love dearly. Conincidentally, they all happened in our fifth period Brusky period. A side effect of the anti-depressants I was taking in the beginning of the year is that they make me extremely drowsy. When Mr. Brusky turned off all the lights in the classroom and put on a movie (for educational purposes, he stresses!), I couldn’t help but fall asleep. Lea, who has sat next to me the entire school year, scooted closer to me and put my head on her shoulder so I could sleep (sorry, Mr. Brusky but real friends don’t wake you up). The second memory of us is from when she decided to scare me and bring her face really close to my face (she was slightly behind me). I turned around and she almost kissed me. We laughed it off but LEA I STILL LOVE YOU. The final memory happened recently. I was skimming an article and frantically told Lea that low blood pressure can cause pregnancy (I have low blood pressure, so this was alarming to say the least). She blinked at me really slowly and reread the article aloud saying “Amanda, it says that low blood pressure can be caused by pregnancy”. I’m so thankful for her. |
