Summer vacation had ended, and it was time for Jane and Paula to start school again. Since January, the two of them had become best friends. They enjoyed spending time together. They were also willing to help each other. This time, Paula would soon help Jane with a big challenge. As the two girls made it to their school, they went to the corner to wait for the 钟, 贝尔 to ring. Like most teenage girls, they were beginning to notice boys. The two 老友记 watched some boys a few feet away. One of them noticed Jane. Paula said, "What do 你 know? One of them likes you, Jane." Jane said, "I think you're right, Paula." Paula looked at her watch and said, "There's fifteen 分钟 until the 钟, 贝尔 rings. 你 have time to get acquainted with him." Jane walked up to the boy and said, "Hi." He smiled and said, "Hi. My name's Kyle. What's yours?" She said, "Jane." He said, "It's nice to meet you, Jane." She said, "It's nice to meet you, too, Kyle." The two talked before the 钟, 贝尔 rang. Jane learned that she and Kyle had their first class together. Later, when it was lunch time, Jane told Paula, "I think Kyle and I have hit it off." Paula said, "I'm so happy for you, Jane!" Jane said, "Of course, I want to take some time to get to know him. I'm confident that we'll start dating soon." Things seemed to be looking up for Jane. However, she had no idea that she was about to get her 心 broken.

Farewell, My Childhood
It was July 22, 1983. I will never forget that 日期 as long as I live. It was perhaps the worst 日 of my life, the 日 I had to 吻乐队(Kiss) my childhood goodbye. I visited with my grandparents that day. I really enjoyed hanging out with them. My mother took my sisters on a shopping spree. My father had to work. I was twelve, and my father didn't trust me at 首页 由 myself. I asked to stay with my grandparents until after dinner. My father picked me up to take me home. Along the way, a truck ran a red light and hit the car. It happened so quickly, but I remember it so vividly....

A 吉他 and the Two Beatles
December 8, 1980 was a 日期 that I will never forget. I had been to an event with the school band. My father and I were heading home. It was late at night, and we were listening to the radio. I will never forget the news. John Lennon had been shot and killed. My father tried to hide it, but he couldn't help it. He just had to cry. I asked, "Father, was he your friend?" My father dried his tears and said, "No, son, I never met him. I only knew of him. He was a member of the British band, the Beatles." I was curious and asked him to tell me more. He told me about how...

Gaining Friends
As time passed, I still hadn't made any friends. Even in church, other kids bullied me. One day, some of the other kids in church were physically bullying me. I then heard a big, booming voice say, "Stop that right now! Would 耶稣 do such a thing?" The other kids ran away, and I got up. There was a man standing there. He was not particularly skinny 或者 stout. He was clean shaven and had short hair, even shorter than my father's. He wasn't particularly short 或者 tall. He appeared to be around sixty-two 或者 sixty-three. He had dark, brown eyes and pepper gray hair. He had a deep...

Introduction
It was John Wilde's forty-fifth birthday. He wanted a small celebration with his band mates and with Grace and her aunt and uncle, whom he considered his family. John said, "I can't believe I'm forty-five." Allen said, "I know. What's nice is your life is so different now than what it was in the beginning." John said, "Yeah." Grace said, "I know 你 went through some rough times, but how different was it?" John was hesitant to tell her. He never shared things like that with his fans. Peter said, "John, Grace is part of your family now. I think you're 安全 with her, mate." Allen...

The man said, "I have to say 'Fresh Fritz Beats'. Fritz playing the drums with his tail was quite adorable." The other man spoke up and said, "Allow us to introduce ourselves. I'm Mark, and this is...

During the 秒 semester of their first 年 of college, the members of New Religion moved to a pet friendly apartment that all four of them could share. It just seemed better that way, because for one thing, they were all very close, and for another thing, Erin and Lola would no longer have that horrible roommate with her awful boyfriends. One afternoon, Erin was strumming on her guitar. Fritz started barking, and Erin went to see what was wrong. Paul had returned from his afternoon class. He did not look like himself at all. Erin said, "Paul, 你 look terrible." He said, "Define terrible."...

After high school was over, the members of New Religion went to college and majored in music. Even though it was cheaper to live in the college dorms, pets were NOT allowed on campus, so Erin chose to live in an apartment, so that she could bring Fritz along.

Erin and Lola, however, ended up with a roommate who wasn't very polite. She had numerous boyfriends, and it seemed every time Erin blinked, that...

Sometime after the incident, Erin learned that Phil was put in jail. She was glad that justice was served. Her injuries healed up, and she started her last 年 of high school. One day, Paul asked, "Can 你 believe this is our last 年 of high school?" Carl said, "No, I can't." Lola said, "Me neither." Erin said, "I'm actually kinda glad for that. I'm certainly not going to miss it." Paul said, "Me neither." The foursome had grown closer since Erin got shot.

One night, Erin was walking downtown with her band mates and her new dog, Fritz. Suddenly, a boy of a similar age stepped out of the shadows. Erin instantly recognized him. She said, "Hello, Phil." Phil said, "Erin, I never thought I'd see 你 again. You're too busy hanging with this Paul guy." She said, "For your information, we happen to be best 老友记 and band mates." Phil sneered, "Yeah. He's the one who got 你 into this devil music." She said, "Paul didn't get me into it. I got into it on my own, and I highly doubt it's devil music, because it brought me and my 老友记 together, and...

Months had passed, and it was summer once again. One day, Erin and Paul went for a walk in the forest with Paul's dogs. As they were walking, they heard whimpering sounds. Erin asked, "Paul, is that one of your dogs?" Paul checked his 狗 and said, "No, I don't think so." Just then, they saw a 小狗 limping toward them. The 小狗 had medium-length, honey-colored 毛皮 and big, brown eyes. The 小狗 sat down at Erin's feet and looked up at her. Paul said, "I think he likes you." Erin asked, "How do 你 know it's a boy?" Paul smiled and said, "There are ways." Erin got down to the puppy's level...

After looking at a 列表 of what they could call their newly formed band, Erin, Paul, Carl, and Lola finally settled on New Religion, because Erin 说 that 音乐 was her religion now. Paul suggested using his YouTube account to get their names out there. For their first video, they performed Erin's song, "Broken and Mended". For their 秒 one, they did a cover of the Bad Religion song, "Faith Alone". Erin really connected to these lyrics.
"What the world needs now
Is some 答案 to our problems.
We can't buy 更多 time,
'Cause our tender isn't valid.
If your soul needs love,
你 can get...

A couple of months passed, and one day, Erin, Paul and Carl got invited to a party 由 their classmate, Lola. Lola had spoken to them some after class, and she seemed nice enough. Still, something was odd to them. Carl said, "I'm curious. Why did she invite us to her party? Isn't she one of the 流行的 girls?" Paul said, "I don't know. It seems like it. I mean, she's always hanging out with the 流行的 girls." Erin said, "Yes, she is. I wonder if this is a scam, 或者 maybe she's just being nice?" Carl said, "Let's hope she's being nice." On the 日 of the party, the three 老友记 arrived early....

The usually talked while listening, but this time, neither of them spoke. Paul finally broke the silence and said, "Erin, I've been thinking about it, and I think we should start a band." Erin said, "I've been thinking about it, too, Paul." He said, "We both know how to play guitar, and we can both sing. That's a start. We just need someone who can play 低音 and someone who can play drums." She said, "Yes, that's...

Paul replied, "No, we're just really good friends." Erin nodded. The teacher said, "Okay, then. I usually don't like having couples sit together, because the last couple I had in my class caused a lot of unnecessary drama, if 你 know what I mean." A few moments later, she talked...

One day, Erin's dog, Rusty, had an accident on the back porch. Erin sighed as she cleaned up the mess. This had been a common occurrence for the past couple of months. It was mid-July, and Rusty had turned fifteen in the middle of April. Fifteen is old for a dog, especially a collie, because a collie's average lifespan is eleven to thirteen years. Sometime later, Paul called her and invited her to his house to play guitar. After playing 吉他 for a while, Paul suggested going for a walk outside. His dogs, Yukon and Nunavut, went with them. Yukon and Nunavut were both Siberian Huskies, considerably...

When she came out, Allie said, "Erin, you've been in there a long time. Are 你 okay?" Erin said, "No, I'm not." Allie asked, "What happened?" Erin said, "Paul and I got into an argument."

She had to make up with him. She just had to! She couldn't lose her...

One day, one of the bullies put a kick me sign on Paul's back. Erin saw that. She cleared her throat. One of the bullies said, "She's got a facial scar. We probably shouldn't mess with her." Another one of the bullies said, "Yeah. She looks totally evil." They ran off. Paul said, "Thanks, Erin." She smiled and took the kick me sign off his back. She then said, "You know I wouldn't hurt a fly." He said, "Yes, I know. They don't...

Long after Erin had recovered from her illness, Paul had invited her to come to his house after school. It was on a Friday, and her aunt and uncle allowed her to go. She and Paul played their guitars for a while. About an 小时 later, Paul said, "You know, it's unusually nice for January. What do 你 say we go outside?" Erin smiled and said, "I'm not opposed." They went outside and played with Paul's Siberian Huskies, Yukon and Nunavut. As they were playing, Erin accidentally ran into a low 树 branch. The force knocked her to the ground. Erin 说 to herself, "Ouch! That's going to leave a...

One day, Erin did not wake up when her alarm went off. Her aunt came into her bedroom to check on her. Erin was awake, but she was shivering. She 说 to her aunt, "I don't feel well at all." Her aunt said, "You sound like you're stuffed up." Erin was feverish. Her aunt said, "I think 你 need to see a doctor." The doctor diagnosed it as sinusitis. It was probably a result of her allergies to ragweed pollen. Ragweed had been in bloom, and its pollen was spreading about the area. Erin's doctor told her to get plenty of rest and take some medication for her symptoms. Later that day, her friends,...
