📲 | A girl shared a nostalgic memory involving Miley Cyrus on Instagram: I never met Miley in person, but she was my penpal in 5th grade. We went to the same homeschool tutorial, but on different days of the week. Back then she went by Destiny, and I remember her telling me that she was acting in a movie called Big Fish. I thought that was so cool and I begged my parents to let me watch the movie when it came out. A couple years later, another friend of mine was auditioning for the role of a new Disney show called "Hannah Montana". She got several call backs and was the next runner up, but the role was given to another girl. "She used to go here," we chatted in the hallway. "Oh yeah! She was my penpal!" It's funny, I always felt this sense of pride about it. Like "she's from my town, from my school-she's not that different from me-and look how far she's gone" If I could go back and tell my 5th grade penpal that in just a few years she would be an international superstar, I wonder what she’d say. But I have a feeling she wouldn't be that surprised. Because I think she always knew she had it in her, & what set her apart is that she went for it.
