Personal Essay

  I have found one of the most important friends in the world. That friend is Amelia. She is always there for me, she plays with me, and she is a great partner to work with. That's why Amelia is one of the most important friend.

  My friend Amelia is always there for me.  I will never forget that one time in first grade. I was super sad at recess and she came over to me to cheer me up. There was this other time in first grade at Amelia's ice skating birthday party and I didn't know how to ice skate so I was holding on to the edge,but then Amelia came over to me and told me to hold here hand and she taught me how to move my feet on the ice. One more example is that once at recess somebody bumped into me and I fell on the ice and she came over to me and asked if I was okay and helped me up. This time it wasn't in first grade, so it shows that Amelia and I have had a lot of memories with her.

My friend Amelia always plays with me. For example, at her 10th birthday she invited a couple of people to her sleepover and I was invited and we had so much fun.She always invites me to the best play dates ever. In first grade she invited me to the best play date ever! It was so much fun. You could tell it was awesome because I remembered it.  Another reason is that she always plays with me at recess. Like the time we made a snowman it was the biggest one there. There was this other play date at my house it was awesome. We went on my dads quad and we played in my basement.

My friend Amelia is a great partner to work with. I like that she stays on task. When we were in the library and everyone started to talk about different stuff, me and Amelia stayed on task and kept working.  Another example is that she gets great research. She has about 10 pages of research. I counted how many pieces of research we have and it was about 20 all of them were double sided.  One more reason is that she's always willing to work. Like at recess we work on our project instead of playing. The recess aid was surprised!

I realized throughout this essay I couldn't have a better friend. For instance, she always plays with me, She's always there for me, and she's a great partner to work with. That is why I think my friend Amelia is important to me.
