We all have had that friend that we never expected to meet. For me, it is my friend Paige. We met my first year in high school. Her family owns a funeral home in our town, and they live on the top floor of it. Everyone thought it was creepy, but when I met Paige on our summer swim team, we immediately became friends. I ignored everyone's comments about how weird her home would be, and I decided to figure it out for myself. When I spent the night at her house (AKA the funeral home), it was so much fun. It actually wasn't creepy at all. This goes to show that even though people had a misconception about this girl due to her home being different than the norm, she was actually a really great person.
In Glee terms, we all know that there are several unlikely friendships that take place at McKinley High. My personal favorite is Finn and Artie. Their friendship blossomed in Season 1 when Artie was being tossed into the school's dumpster by Puck and other bullies, and Finn stood up for him. Now they're not only step-brothers (which I love!), but they're good friends. This unlikely friendship is wonderful, and it proves that even the most unlikely people can become your greatest friends.
A good friend of mine from middle school also has a family owned funeral home. They don't live above it anymore but do live next to it, and we went to her house to take pictures before my senior prom. We took our pictures on a staircase in the funeral home, and walking by the hearses in the garage to get in and out.
