>Don't see foster kid anymore there
>Don't see other friend there anymore (I did call her on occasion as I said, but we lived a good distance away and... it seems like if I want to stop being friends with someone I just end up stopping calling them... not that I don't like them usually but probably it had to do with my social awkardness. IE I put this on myself by not having certain friends because I never call them, I'm so sorry)
I still have some of the Pokemon that girl traded me (and completely forget the foster kid's name now so I don't know if I have any of his).
If they're magically reading this I hope you two are still doing okay and sorry Allie... your OT says that anyway
