from silence to friendship

By: Angel H

For many students in school they find themselves struggling to make friends. But not so difficult for Kelly Mon. She was always a ball of sunshine ready to share her light with other people. But she had no one to vent to because she was an only child growing up.”When growing up I really didn't have anyone to talk to in a way where I could tell secrets or drama” Mon said.

An early memory Mon has with her friends is when she met her friends during middle school playing volleyball, a time where everyone was coming back to school from quarantine and ever since then they began to become closer and closer with each other. They would always play volleyball together everyday during lunch.”I was just really happy I had people to be with during lunch. I would always be by myself but now I have my besties to play volleyball” Mon said.

Mon and her friends would always play video games together during the summer of 2023 they would mainly always play valorant and sometimes fortnite and roblox but valorant was their go to game. Then from all the calls on the phone they did during the school year they finally decided to hangout at the mall.

Mon and her friends decided to hangout at the mall which was valley fair. The first time they ever hung out they decided to go shopping in many different stores and then when the day was closing out they decided to go eat at the cheese cake factory.

Ever since then they would always go to valleyfair when they could. That was their spot. Its always shopping with them or taking pictures in the photo booth together. Mon was happy that she always has people to vent to such a big group of friends. #KellyIsTheCoolestPersonEver :3
