Monday's Memory:Birthday!

Randomly today I remembered a birthday that I will probably never forget. Worst part is that i dont' talk to this person anymore. Makes me sad when i realize just how many people I've lost contact with over the years. But this was my 12th or 13th birthday. My mom had left before I woke up that morning and hadn't said anything to me and when I got down to the bus stop no one had said anything to me. I went the entire day with out a single person I knew saying anything to me. It was as if everyone had forgotten my birthday. I ate my lunch alone and made my way to sit out side my Utah History class. I think I even had started crying when a guy walked up to me. I'd talked to him a few times in class but I wouldn't have called us friends at the time. He sat down next to me and asked me what was wrong. I told him about my day and then rested my head back down on my knees. He disappeared some where and when the bell rang and our teacher had unlocked the door I made my way to my seat. As everyone filed into the class room everyone walked over and wished me Happy Birthday. I found out later that he'd asked everyone to say something to me. Even though it started out crappy I think that was one of my best birthdays ever thanks to that kid.
