My best friend Arlene....
... was one of the nicest and friendliest person I have ever met.
... was an outgoing person who didn't care what anyone thought of her.
... helped me when I needed it most.
... was my Siamese twin who never left my side.
... stuck by me through the good and the bad times.
... was a cheerful person all around.
But when the seventh grade came around, my best friend Arlene...
... became a completely different person.
... started wearing make - up and new clothes.
... left me for the popular kids.
... was not my best friend anymore.
We haven't spoken to each other since but I now know that I don't need her. If she wouldn't hav left me, I wouldn't have been who I am today. So, in a weird way... thanks.
