Blog Post 11: Isabel Bandoroff

Kirby Beard. When I first walked into 4th period English that first day of school and saw who I would be sitting with, I had no idea what to expect... and so far I have been pleasantly surprised by the tall, skinny boy that sits next to me. I knew very little about him, we'd never had a class together but I still knew his name and that he was in band, but that's it. Little did I know that as English class went on, he would prove to be a pretty good friend.. at least I like to think so. Kirby and I have an odd and often confusing friendship, we make fun of each other and are sometimes genuinely very nice to each other, everyday I walk in and I have no idea what to expect from him. The days range from him buying me chocolate and me giving him advice to him literally moving seats because he is mad at me (which is sometimes jokingly mad and sometimes genuine). Kirby is easy to talk to and he can still help me, with English and Physics, without being condescending or making me feel stupid. We share a love for candy, and let me tell you this kid ALWAYS has candy. He's very nice and shares with me, and one day I promise I'm going to buy you a lot of candy to make up for all I've consumed, Kirby. While I do know a lot about Kirby, he's still very mysterious and I like that. I feel like he just does the most crazy and sketchy stuff in his free time.. and while I disagree with some of his life choices... he is overall a smart and careful person. I know that I can always count on him to help me solve an impossible physics problem, cheer me up, be an awesome ball-room dance partner (because we both killed that ish), or share his chocolate with me. And I hope he knows that he can always find these things in me as well, except maybe the physics problem. So all in all, thank you for being a friend in such an unexpected place, and I've never been so glad that I wasn't allowed to choose where I sit.

Also I forgot this earlier but Kirby would probably be a midnight blue - pretty and cool but dark and mysterious.
