On the school bus the next morning there was much __15__ about Amy and me skating together. But __16__ insulted her or me. And they didn’t for the rest of the year. I __17__ heard from Amy again after the school year. But I’ve always __18__ that I changed her life for the better. She changed my __19__. After becoming her friend, I no longer tried to impress people by trying to __20__ like them. I became myself.
