Back in the summer time, Anna and I had made plans to visit each others schools for one day when the other person didn't have school. So in easier terms, a day that I had school and Anna didn't she would come to my school for the day to see what it was like, and vise versa.
So we mentioned it again over the weekend, went over the dates and stuff like that and then the next day, I was talking to my mom about it at a restaurant. I don't feel like writing it out in paragraphs so here is the dialogue that I can remember.
Me = me of course
C = Mom, (since there are 3 letters in mom and c is the third letter in the alphabet)
Me: So...Anna and I have plans to visit each others schools.
C: Yes I remember you mentioning that over the summer. I don't think that she can handle your workload.
Me: Really?
C: I don't think her school does as much work as you guys do.
Me: Yeah, the last time I was at her house I could easily do her history homework, we did it a week ago in my class, and I pretty much told her exactly what to write on some of her other assignments.
C: And her school isn't as diverse as yours, she probably doesn't know how to talk to black people.
Me: Why wouldn't she? They aren't much different, just because her school has only 5 black kids and we have...a lot more than that...
C: Yeah, but you have over 1000 students, they barely have 500. Your chemistry class is probably about how many people are graduating this year.
Me: True...that is probably true.
And the conversation continues, but when I'm laying on my bed I really start thinking about it. Anna is my best friend, but how well will she get along with my school friends? Frank would probably be nice to her...but George? I dunno...the two of them are a little out there. And what about Angie, Will and Kate? They are great friends but they are completely different from Anna, they are loud while Anna well...isn't. And what would she think of Salad? Would she like him or not? Would she think that he's a good match for me or that I should forget about him? GAH! I never thought this arrangement would be so hard!
