Illness and Memories

I've been stuck at home all day with fever. Not fun. >.<' I usually catch about four or five colds per school year, but it's rare that the colds come with a fever. Plus, they usually come later on in the year.
Anyway, I love Steel Magnolias~ I found it on television, and I'm reminiscing a bit. I didn't see the movie for the first time until a few years ago (language and all that), but it's one movie that I will avoid watching with other people. It's hilarious, but this movie never fails to make me cry like crazy, and I hate letting other people see me cry. The only people I've cried in front of because of a movie are my parents, my aunt, my brother, and my friend from when I was little.
That last person is the reason why I've been reminiscing. I only knew that friend for about a year before she moved, but I looked up to her. I forgot what her real name was, but I always called her Shell. Maybe it was Shelby or Shelly... *shrugs* Anyway, she was about a year older than I was. I can't remember how we met, because it was so long ago. She moved before my family had to move to New York for my dad's job. Hmm... I wonder how she's doing? I'd look for her on Facebook if I could remember her last name.
