This is my best friend, Megan. I met her right before we started our freshman year. I was in Girl Scouts since I was a daisy, and I was part of the same troop all the way up to middle school. Before starting high school though, the troop decided to disband and quit the whole Girl Scout thing. My mom didn't want me quitting, mostly because she wanted me to get my Gold Award eventually (and I did). So she started looking around for a troop for me to join. This was easy for her cause my mom was a Girl Scout leader for my sister's troop. There were two troops in the area with girls my age. One of the troops was with girls that I already knew. Personally I didn't want to join that one because I didn't really like those girls. They were a little superficial to me, but in general a 14 year old girl can be like that.
That left the other troop with girls that I did not know at all. One girl, Megan went to the same middle school as me and we were band together. We played different instruments though, so we didn't really have any contact at all. So, that summer before starting freshman year, I went over to their swim party just to get to know them. Immediately I was accepted. We stayed together for four years, but since then we've all gone our own ways. Megan and I have stayed best friends since I joined her troop back in 2007 (or was it 2006?). Much has changed since back then, but I have a good idea that Megan and I will be friends for a very long time.
