My Friend, Vivek Palreddy

tl;dr

Vivek Palreddy is a wild man. He parties too hard, gets distracted too easily, and just wants to live life. But, at the end of the day, he's a passionate, caring guy with a kind heart.

The Beginning

We met in the 7th grade. Our mutual friend Ethan Kadis would invite us over to hang out. I remember some activities we did together include playing airsoft in the woods with the old crew, playing rock band and guitar hero in his basement, and going to subway everyday after school.

Vivek was always a funny guy from the beginning.

Short Memorable Anecdotes

There's some memories

• In the 8th grade I remember Vivek asking me if I wanted to sleep over. I would always say yes, but I'd go over and immediately fall asleep.
• In the 8th grade we were walking home together (when we lived close together) and I would put gum on the ground in a trail to entice him to come over my house.
