Ode to Chelsey.

Blogger, I've missed you.

I haven't felt the need to blog about anything, "worth while."

I can always blog about how stupid people are, or my "obsession" with correcting people when they're wrong, it's not an obsession, it's teaching thank you very much!

I blog about those all the time. I haven't done my Disney Challenge in a while, but no one reads those anyways so I end up wasting thirty minutes to an hour researching and getting pictures when one person (me) reads it.

I posted a status asking what I should blog about and received one answer in return.
From my best friend since childhood, her answer was, "Me."

So I guess I will do a blog about Chelsey.

Plain and simple, this is my Ode to Chelsey:

Chelsey moved across the street the street from me when I was ten and she was almost nine. It was actually diagonal from my house, to the left. She had the deepest southern accent and cute brown ringlets. We instantly became friends, as a side note remember when you were little making friends there was never "awkward silences," you just clicked with that person and that was it. Why is it so hard when you get older?
Finding out our birthdays were basically right next to each other, hers is the 29th mine is the 27th of November, only solidified our friendship!

Anyways, we always played together going on adventures at Chalker or the woods behind some random persons house. We found a secret place, actually in the woods behind someones house. There was a tree you could climb and sit on and also a little creek that ran behind it. We would pack food and go on a picnic to our secret place.

We would spend the night at her house and stay up as late as possible watching T.V. or playing silly games. We always thought we were witches and could do magic, thank you "The Craft," for making children believe they can actually be witches and thank you society for stealing our dreams away from us. Anyways, I remember we burnt her door because we had it leaning against boxes as a "fort" and we lit a candle  under it, burning the door. I don't think her mom was that mad, which was good!

She got a trampoline and our summer and afternoons after school were spent living on that thing! It was so much fun and at the same time dangerous. I hated getting double bounced, that's the worst thing in the world, and I believe Chelsey fell off the trampoline one time. We would lay on it and look at the sky or get it wet and have a way to cool down during the summer.

Her neighbors were two little boys, one, Andrew, had the biggest crush on Chelsey and we would have pine cone wars with them, I'm pretty sure we always won, those boys were big babies!!
There's a wooden fence dividing their yards and one day Chelsey and I got our hands muddy and put our hand prints on the fence and wrote our names, in mud, next to them. A few years ago, when I was still living in Georgia snuck into the new renters back yard and looked to see if our hand prints were still there. This was years after we had placed them there. True friendship lasts the tests of time.

Chelsey, unfortunately, moved right before she went into 7th grade I was going into 8th. She moved all the way to Texas! Those years were tough, we barely talked we basically stopped being friends. She ended up moving back to North Carolina, where she is originally from and we started talking again. I don't think there has been a day where we haven't talked for the past three years.

Since we've know each other we've gotten into multiple fights, we've slapped each other even. Through it all though we've remained friends, no matter what we say or do to each other we'll always be friends.
We tell each other are deepest and darkest secrets, we talk about the absolute weirdest things. Seriously, picture the weirdest thing you can now take it three steps further, yeah we talk about that.
She's the smartest funniest girl I know. She's determined and caring. I know she'll always be there for me when I need her and I will always be there for her, no matter how far away we are from each other I know she has my back and I have hers.

One day I am sure we will be neighbors again and when that day comes,  world you better watch out!

I wish everyone could have or does have a BFF like I have!! If you don't you're missing out and if you do, you're lucky and don't let them go!

I love you Chelsey, as if we were family!
