My Mom/Best Friend. We all remember our childhood best friends right? I know I do. In elementary school my best friends were twin girls named Ashley and Allison if you saw one of us the other two weren 't far behind. In middle school my best friend was a girl named Mikala and we were basically inseparable, we would trade off spending weeks at each others houses, giving each other horrible makeovers, and mostly just laughing about everything.You see now that I’m 18 and with only 2 months left in my senior year I have come to realize that those girls were my friends but my best friend was right at home and I call her mom. October 30th, 1997 was the day that our crazy mother daughter adventure started. She may say the craziness started around the 28th about the time she went into labor, keep in mind I was born on the 30th so that means labor for 2 whole days. YIKES! Sorry mom.

My mom is my best friend because she is always there for me. She is there when I need to vent whether it’s about friends or my boyfriend and believe me there’s a lot to say about “dumb” boys. A special thing that my mom and I share is that we always used to pinky promise about things. That is just something that has always stuck with us. We are also planning on getting tattoos on our pinkies that say “promise”.Something crazy that best friends usually do is they say the same things at the same time. If you happen to listen to my mom and I most of the time we do say the same things, we laugh about this when it happens because it’s crazy. We also LOVE to watch movies together. Our favorite movie to watch together is called “You 've got mail” I bet we could recite most of the movie. My mom is my best friend for all these reasons and many

  • Essay About Volleyball

    807 Words  | 2 Pages

    I met my two best friends through my club and high school teams. The first one, Candace, I met in 8th grade at the club volleyball Halloween party where she was Cookie Monster and I was a zombie volleyball player. We hit it off from there, but we did not become close friends until our first tournament where our moms had planned for us to all share a hotel room. Until then, we had just been teammates, but that first tournament changed my life. We found that we were meant to be best friends and we became inseparable. Her family also had a major impact on my life because they became my second family and I became their second daughter. My second-best friend, Tori, I met during the summer before my 9th grade year. My high school volleyball coach, Putman, introduced us to each other because we were the only freshmen there. While it was awkward at first since we were both new to high school, we very quickly became friends. We were the only two freshmen to make the Junior Varsity team, so we became very comfortable with each other since we were afraid of the upperclassmen. After the highs school season, she joined my travel club team and that is where became the closest we had ever been. I had my two best friends on my club team, and those two girls taught me so much about what it takes to have a healthy friendship. If not for volleyball I would have never met them, and my life would
