In this society, I've always felt as if I was an outcast. I wouldn't get along with anybody, probably because they were different from me. I didn't have many friends either. I always used to feel terrible about myself. Then came the person in my life who threw me my first lifeline, my brother.
             Gaurav was a very down to earth person. There was no sign of arrogance in him. When he talked to people he would put this "magic" on them. Whoever he spoke with, he would leave a good impression on them. No matter what crowd he is in, he gets along with everyone. He also has a good sense of humor. He would always make everyone laugh. At the same time, Gaurav is very caring and is a good listener. He knows when to act which way.
             His skin was as tan like the desert sand and if one touched his skin, they could feel how soft it was. His body was medium built. As he walked, he would always get the eye of a girl's attention. He wore loose fitted jeans and a collar shirt. The way he dressed was very fashionable and trendy. Gaurav wore good smelling cologne. If he walked into a room, I would recognize him from the scent of his cologne.
             The leaves fall and change color during the fall season. This also means going back to school and starting the cycle again. It happens every year and each year there are new people one meets in school. One has to get adjusted to the classes. Sometimes it takes months to adjust to the new environment and to the people and sometimes one never adjusts.
             One fall day, when I was going to my bus stop, I realized that I forgot my lunch. When I went to my house and received my lunch, I went back to the stop and realized that I missed my bus. By the time I went to school, I was late for 1st period and had to stay in the cafeteria for the whole period. Next, in earth science, I got back a test in which I failed. I was very frustrated because I studied so hard...
