My Best Friend
My best friends name is Brittney Lewis. We have been friends since the ninth grade. We have a few things in common, but we're mostly best friends because opposites attract. Brittney and I met in a Physical Science class we had together. At first we didn't talk very much if at all, but after a while we grew on each other and stated hanging out together. Since then we have remained friends and since shared many things together like good laughs, jobs, and even some times that weren't so good for both of us. Mostly, I'm just happy to be able to have such a great friend like her.

Like I said before, Brittney and I met in a Physical Science class that we had. That class contained an abnormal group of people. There were a lot of those student types that didn't care about school, much less class and then there were those that were class clowns who always thought they should have a minute or two to enlighten us with a joke everyday. As you can see this class was pretty out of control and there wasn't any way to cool us down. Brittney and I sat next to each other all the time and would sit back and watch as the rest of the people in the class made fools of themselves while receiving referrals to the principal. We always laughed and played around in that class and it made us closer as friends; seeing as how we were the only two normal ones there we sort of became really good friends. Don't get me wrong there have been many other times that she and I spent laughing our "asses" off, if not at other people or things then at us.

Many of our laughs come from when we started working together at Dunkin Donuts/Baskin Robbins. Boy, we sure have a lot of bonding memories at that job. We absolutely hated working at that dump and would strongly suggest that no one apply to work there.

It all started off when I got hired in the 10th grade and Brittney and I were in History together when I told her. She immediately asked if I could get her hired and I told

    Computer Number: 19 Period 3 Montgomery Bus Boycott On December 1, 1955, Rosa Parks was arrested because she refused to give up her seat to a white man. It was unlikely that she realized the force she had set into motion and the controversy that would soon swirl around her. “I didn’t get on the bus with the intention of being arrested,” she said. Earlier that year in March 2, 1955, a 15-year old girl Claudette Colvin was the first person arrested for resisting bus segregation in Montgomery, Alabama.…

    Over the years that I’ve been at Burdick, I’ve gained many great friends, but I also lost a few. Only a few selective of them, I tell my secrets to. For example, Kaiden, Coreena, Dakota, Elysium, Joelle, Jose, and Isaiah. They’re the greatest friends anyone could ask for and have. They’re loyal, truthful, understanding, funny, witty, sarcastic, and just plain awesome. I have them to thank for making ordinary moments, extraordinary. They’re always there when I want to hang out or vent out my feelings. They put in that extra effort to understand me for who I am, not caring the slightest bit about my flaws and imperfections. And if I ever need to shed some tears, I know that at least one of them will be there to comfort me. There are times where…

    Coming into her class, I never possessed a great amount of patience. One of the things that really frustrated me was when students constantly blurt random stuff out. This seemed to be some of the boys’ aptitudes in that class, because it seemed they never could hush up and listen. I don’t know if they just did not think and immediately said what came to mind or what, but I soon became aggravated.…

    I was so excited to see her, so I ran up to her and gave her a hug. She then looked at me with disgust and told me that she had new and better friends so she did not want me to talk to her again. She also said that she could not explain anything else because if they saw her with me, they would kick her out of the group. I had no idea what I did wrong, but I was very upset. I tried to talk to her later in the day, but her new friends kept making fun of me. They would call me names and go out of their way to harass me in the hallways and at lunch. They would call me a loser and accuse me of stalking Tanisha. The dynamic of picking on others outside of the group is similar to what Adler and Adler define as “subjugation.” In Alders Peer Power, they explain the different tactics of out-group subjugation. “They like to pick on people of lower status, it tends to excite them” (Adler and Adler 179). Adler and Adler explain, “One of the main things is to keep picking on unpopular kids because it’s fun to do” (Quoted in Adler and Adler 180). The worst part was that Tanisha went along with all of it. I was so upset that my once best friend thought that I was…

    I was in the sixth grade when I first met my best friend Jamilex. Jamilex and I were really close, we did everything together; our homework, went to the movies, hung out in the park, and often went her house where we had conversations about guys. We tried to spend time together as often as possible, because we didn't see each other during school hours since she attended a different junior High school. We saw each other every day after school to do homework together. I never thought I would finally meet a true friend but you know what they say, "Never say Never". I tried to do my best to keep her happy and be there for her when she needed a shoulder to cry on. Jamilex and I were so different but at the same time so alike. Her favorite color…

    I am very lucky to have your as my best friend. I can’t believe it been two years since we graduate from high school. I remember in high school when both of us were discussing which colleges we should apply. I really glad that we both choose to attend a community college instead of a four-year college. I know that we both went to different community colleges but we were still very close and had the same experience. I can’t believe that I am attending Iowa State next fall and of course I will miss…

    It was during the summer leading up to tenth grade. My best friend at the time was a girl named Kayla. She was the greatest person I had known up to that point in my life. She is one of the first people I spent time with outside of school. We went to go see a movie together, which broke me out of my antisocial shell. She also helped me talk to a girl that I liked for three years, by being an intermediate for us to spend time together. She made plans for all of us to go to another friend’s house, and invited us to her birthday party. However, my attitude towards Kayla changed.…

    I have couple of best friends, all have them are friends of mine for more than nine years. And the one I think is most unique compare to other is the friendship I have with my primary classmate, Yannes. We met in each other in school when we were first grader, we somehow became friend right away, probably just because we sat next to each other. But we were arranged into different classes in our second and third year of elementary school, so we became a Hi-Bye friend in that period of time. From fourth grade, we were in the same class for three years in a row, which is how we get to know each other more and more and end up being each others’ best friend.…

    As you take a step back from everything, and just think about it, how does friendship work?Most people are not much different from a leaf that blows down the street. They are there only for a short period of time Out of all of the people in Pittsburg, its two people, creating a bond and being able to trust them with anything and everything. Courtney Johnson is a Freshman here at Pittsburg State University, and she is the girl that I automatically clicked with since day one. Her hair is so long that it reaches the middle of her lower back and all you want to do is get under it so that you can hide from everything so that you can become part of her world. Her face is somewhat round and automatically draws my attention every time I see her. I watch her walk down the street and I notice, that she has a subtle strut in her step, like she walks with a purpose everywhere she goes. When I looked upon her from head to toe, it seems as though the beauty of her legs continued from her waist to the tip of her toes. She had a slight hourglass shaped body with a super long torso. She is an average sized girl, maybe a little on the taller side, but nothing as close to my height.…

    I was looking for my classroom and I remember the school hallways were so narrow that it was very difficult for me to pass between people, the floor was so slippery that it seemed like I was trying to walk on a skating rink. That’s when I met her, she was like me, hopelessly misplaced and desperately reading the long lists were they had the names of the students, which were almost falling off the wall where they were stuck because of the moisture that it felt that day. That was when we first spoke and discovered we were in the same classroom. I felt better because I had someone to be with as I came to know the other girls and make friends. I never thought that she would be the one to become my best friend.…
