Valeria (or, Valerie as some like myself refer to her as) is a friend I have known for about 12 years now. We met in elementary school but didn't become friends until grade 8, where we wore a lot of aeropastale and ate far too many orange bags of Skittles with her sister, Alexandra. (images below.) I find that with every friendship I am involved in, a new skill is acquire, or new information is taught. In this case, Valeria and her sister taught me how to do many different things such as making really good brownies, editing photos with picnik and other 14 year old in 2010-2011 things. I even picked up a good bit of the Spanish language when I spent a lot of time at her house in preparation of her Quinceañera (again, image below.) Anyway, we hung out recently for the first time in many many years! I had missed her very much. Below lies images from our past and recent trip to Riverside, where we had coffee at some obscure minimalist hide out (lol) and ate vegetarian food. Me, the first black girl to be in a Quinceañera (or so I'd like to think,) Valeria, and her sister Alexandra circa October 2010
