My Best Friend:

A best friend is always someone who will be there for you when you need them the most. Who is my best friend you ask? Well her name is Megan Elizabeth Jerlin. We first met back in the fourth grade at Petrides. There we found it a coincidence that we are both named Megan and she is only eight days older than me. We got along instantly with one another. From there on out we were placed in the same class. We are so close to each other. Megan is a very blunt person. If you annoy her or ask her a question, she will tell you to shut up or get away from her. She always tells you the truth. She does not lie to you and sugar coat an answer for you. She is always direct. If you do not like the answer she gives you then you are out of luck. Our time really grew together through the years, however, our bond got closer once we got to high school. When you are in the same school with people your entire life, you seem to hate them and get tired of seeing the same people every day. We found it funny that we are complete opposites of each other. She is always late for any event or even just getting to school

Giglio 2 on time. However, I am always early. She likes to get all her work done early, yet I like to procrastinate and does everything last minute. When we got to high school and both were in ROTC that’s when our bound grew. We were always placed in the same ROTC class and our other subjects as well. In ROTC, you have to choose to get along with someone even if they are your worst enemy. I remember this one time this girl, Nicole, and I were arguing, probably about something ridiculous, and I called Megan in to help. She told us straight up front to grow up and solve this problem on our own. When she was dealing with her relationship problems or just needed, someone to talk to I would be there for her and vice versa. Being in the same classes

    My best friend Sedona Love taught me something this year, something I would never have had seen with my own two eyes until she showed me. She taught me that when I am having trouble at home or life isn’t treating me so well, that she will always be there to listen and give their best input. She may sometimes be sarcastic, silly, goofy, mean, crazy, sometimes plain out embarrassing, and even care too much, but in the long run she is always going to be there to listen and not talk, hear without judging, and be there with nothing in return. In class sometimes she can be pretty critical but I know that’s just how our relationship works. I may get called silly, stupid, a dumb blonde, an idiot, but when I need my best friend the most I know that she will be there for me. When I needed a shoulder to cry on or when I needed a hug the most she was always there for me, when I felt there was no sense in life she showed me there was way more to life than I thought. A couple of weeks ago I went into severe anaphylactic shock and she was right there, she brought me my backpack and the things I needed most at the time. She stood up for me when my so called friends were talking behind my back not really knowing what was going on. She was also the only one who cared enough to call me and see how I was doing, she put everything aside just so she could make sure that I was okay. Not…

I remember when Samantha and I first met in Kindergarten; I had just back to Fort Hood from Germany and hardly spoke English.

She would speak for the both of us and do things I didn’t agree with, but I would simply brush it off and continue to follow along. I was giving up my lead role to please my lifelong best friend.…

    I had done a pretty good job, considering the circumstances. All until that one fateful day that I got partnered with her on an assignment in class. I tried to be all cool about it, but on the inside I was thinking “What if I’m too awkward?” and “Wait, what if I’m too stuck up?” As it turned out, Emma was actually really nice, and we began to hang out over the next couple of months. Soon, school was out for the summer, and we didn’t talk much over the summer. In fifth grade, we picked back up and I soon had my own little group of friends. In the second half of fifth grade, I saw Emma turn into exactly what I had thought she would be like at first sight. It was bad, and a lot of drama got started. We got into a lot of trouble, but still remained enemies. This carried on until 6th grade when one of our teachers addressed the problem. We somehow put our problems behind us and there has been no more drama since…
