My Best Friend

Of my closest two friends, Carey is my second choice. Haha! Just kidding - you and Amanda are both equally loved.

Carey has been with me through thick and thin since the beginning of middle school, and I love her to death. Though her personality is overall quiet and seemingly timid, she always confides in her best friends. As far as I can see, she rarely makes a mistake, and her ideas are very intellectual and insightful. Sometimes I envy her in how much she sees out of the world whereas I can't get past the outer appearance. However, the way she views herself falls slightly under positive. I remind her over and over how much she's worth - ALOT. Carey is slightly short in height compared to peers, but it never impaired her abilities and won't ever. In fact, she is absorbed in the sport of baton twirling, and is especially talented in it.

She keeps a positive attitude in everything she does, and her smile is infectious. She would be considered a humanitarian, but her kindness doesn't blind her from right and wrong; if I were to vandalize Mrs. Gilman's whiteboard and she knew I did it, she would know to do the right thing and report me, even though we are bestfriends. Carey might seem like an introvert, but she is my painfully well hidden extrovert :) Sides of her, nobody else has seen, are expressed regularly to me, such as the way she freaks out when a hot guy passes by (she's probably going to get angry that I mentioned this), or that she complains excessively about how 'Mormon' her mom is. She is comfortably annoying around her friends, and we are comfortably annoying to her. Balance developes our friendship, and I know that she feels the same way.
