Well, I'd like to start by telling you about reconnecting with an old friend. Recently, I was trying to find his contact information. While I was at my school, I saw a family named Wa who had known my friend. We had been close friends back in high school, and we even left school together after I finished 12th grade. After I moved to a different city, I lost his phone number and desperately tried to find it. I searched for him on Instagram using his name, but I couldn't find anything. Finally, I found his profile and sent him a message. He replied, and then he gave me his phone number. We had a long conversation, and we made a plan to see each other after all these years. We're going to meet in a month, and I'm incredibly excited about it.
