This is Blanca. She was my best girl friend in high school. I met her in French class shortly after I had moved to Roswell from California. She was one of the best French speaking student till I came. LOL She was a bit odd, and I remember my first sentence to her: "Are you an Aquarius?" I bet she still remembers that. We click right away, and before time, we are hanging out togther. As time passed, she fell in love with me. Of course, I never wanted to acknowledge that because of you know. I would not dare then to let anyone know about my true feelings. We got to meet each other's family; after some time, she was already part of the family. My mom, dad, sisters, brothers, and nephews have gotten to know she was.
Another character played a very mportant role in high school, but I don't have his pic right now. His name is Luis. I have a pic of his siter which I will post as well. Her name is Alma. After Luis came in the picture, we all would hang out at the library after we had lunch. Since Alma and Luis were very close, when Luis would hang out with us, his sister would as well. There was another group of girls that started to hang out at the library as well. During most of our senior year, that was our favorite place. We would meet in the library before class and then at lunch. I remember taking a walkman with a set of external speakers. We would tell jokes, listen to music, and play games while in the library. Although it might have seen boring, those were the best times I spent at Roswell High with my friends.
I had lots and lots of girl friends. I don't know why. Well now I know why. LOL They weren't threaten by my presence. I made them feel good, and all unconditionally. A few of them wanted to let me know they wanted to develop something with me, but Blanca was always there to impose her presence, and make them seem like she was my only "girl." Little did they know. I sort of didn't mind that Blanca would scare them away from getting closer to me because ultimately, I wasn't going to respond anyways. I thought it was a perfect plan for them never to think otherwise.
After Blanca bugging me so much to give each other a chance, I decided to date her one day. After we went on the date, we went to Cahoon Park (check out the Pic of Joseph from Roswell to find out more about this place) I used to drive a truck then. An '89 Ford F150 with stp-side. Since it was my first vehicle in Roswell, I didn't complain much. (I am not very excited about Fords) Ok back to the story.. in the truck, we started to make out. Yeha, I know. How could I, right? That event almost cause for us to stop being friends. She became very possessive and jelous. It felt almost as though she thought she had the right to ruin my social life with my other friends. She also caused a few scenes in school. Things were getting out of hand just because of that date. I had a serious talk with her and let her know that I wan't going to put up with her childish games, and for her to grow up. I also reminded her that it was just a date, that we are better off as friends only. Besides, I never had given her the impression that something would come out of it because I knew it wouldn't. I felt bad telling her all of those things, but it was the only way to save our friendship. After a while, she came around again. This time knowing that we were just friends. She changed her attitude. Ever since then, we became closer friends.
There is so much to tell about Blanca.... I will let you know what became of her life at a later time. I need to catch up with the other pics.
