Since you and I are going to be very best friends, I might as well describe my self to you. I am 16years old, I live in Blacksburg, Virginia, but I am originally Egyptian. I live with me parents in an apartment, not too far from my school. I have only been in the U.S. for 3 years so my grammar might not be perfect. I only have 4 Muslim friends in my school, and only one of them is a girl. And I don't really say anything to her other than 'hi', because she doesn't speak English or Arabic at all. There is this other girl from her country so they're always together.
After school I went to Jessica's house to work on a project for probability and data. We did a great project, but we finished early so there was still sometime until I had to go home. We went outside and played basketball. Then we decided to go for a walk. We saw that some people were moving in the house in front of Jessica's. They had a girl about our age, so I asked Jessica if we can go and say hi. At first Jessica said no, but then she said "Only if you talk first" I said "Sure".
"Hi, my name is Sama, and this is my friend Jessica" I said to the new girl.
"My name is Lena, nice to meet you" Lena said.
"Jessica lives there" I told Lena while pointing at Jessica's house.
"Do you live near here?" Lena asked me.
"No I live far away from here" I told Lena. Soon my parents came and I had to leave. I left after Lena told us that she will be going to our school, starting tomorrow. I was so excited. I love meeting new people. When I was a little girl, I made friends with everyone I sat with either on a bus or in an elevator. But me parents told me that it is a good thing to meet new people, but you can't just make friends with anyone, you should be careful about who you are talking to. So now I only make friends with neighbors or people I meet in school. That was just about everything that happened today.
