The ladies of the 8th grade. =)

This was in 8th grade @ Coldwell Elementary School where we met.
Miss you Esme … ~* Miss Dejong *~

I met Esme in 8th grade at Coldwell Elementary. I was new to the school, and I remember Esme was the first person to say hello and introduce herself. She was always happy, smiling, having fun. We were extremely close friends, and you would always see the four of us together … (Dolores, Mickey, Esme and Me). We would share secrets and even gave our secret crushes nick names so no one would know who we were talking about… LOL (Silly Girls).
I remember going to the mall shopping, and even hanging out at each other’s house after school. Even at this early age she loved Rock music. She was also the one who introduced me to Badtz-Maru and KeroKeroKerropi. =)
But unfortunately we lost touch after 8th grade when she got accepted to Magnet school, and Miss Smarty pants left us =D ! !
Nonetheless the short time I knew her was long enough for her to leave a lasting impression!
Rest in peace Esme! You will always be remembered ! !
Love, Janet De Jong
