     I have double-spaced the text so that teachers can simply print it out and use it for exercises or for their own analysis. (Names were changed.)

My Best Friend

      I have two best friends right now they are 1. Terri Lee 

Smith 2. Amy Marie Loomis. Terri she has dark brown hair, 

brown eyes, skinny and wears glasses. Amy and I are sorta 

closer than Terri and I. Amy and I get along a little better. So

I guess thats that!  Amy, she has blonde hair, blue eyes, and 

weighs about 113 pds, and is 5'4" in height. We look alike! 

Every-body tells us that we are or should be sisters. We go "we 

know".  Amy is a very good Friend. She listens to my problems 

and I listen to hers. We are good, good close friends. We've 

gone skating and we still do a lot, we go to the park, and do 

things, Next year we will proble go on double-dates together. I 

hope so. Well she also lives down the road from me. She will 

proble be coming up a lot to my house. We'll also be going to

the pool a lot. We will have lots of fun. When we go with 

someone we normally fix each other up or something. The only 

thing that Amy does to make me really, I mean really mad is to 

1. ignore me 2. lie, I hate someone to lie to me. Write know 

Amy likes a boy named Mike he's in the 10th grade. They 

both like each other, I just hope that they will be happy 

together. We also go on vacations. I want her to go places with 

me. Well I suppose that's it for now. So I hope you have 

enjoyed reading this, so talk to you later,
