  2. Writing about my best friend is by no means the easiest task to do because everything I remember now is not enough to describe the great person who she is.
    She is called Flávia and we go back a long way - more or less eleven years ago - when we started to study at a university in Fortaleza, Ceará.
    It was interesting because at the first moment in the class a large number of students seemed to be a little shy - including Flavia and I. But after some hours together I realised Flavia was so talkative! We just clicked straight away! We were always together: not only did we go out but we also studied with each other. Sometimes I was worried about something and Flavia made feel so good.
    We finished our course and became two (not employed) lawyers. So, we decided to study in order to pass an exam and become civil servants. It was by far the worst time in our lives because we didn't have money for anything (we couldn't travel!). However, one more time, we were together and complemented each other and after almost three years we passed at the same exam and believe me or not we are living now in Brasilia! She is definitely my best friend and we are always there for each other.

  4. My best friend and I go back a long way. We first met when we were about two years old. I didn't know her very well, but few years later her mother made her mind up that we should know better about each other. So when I went to another school, Tainá went as well. We became good friends and we were always there for each other. My friend is quite different from me. She eats very little food, she is shorter than me and she confess to disliking vegetables. When it was time to have our snack, I always followed her and we played a game called ludo. We feed off each other until now.
    The year before lastyear I went to a friend's birthday and didn't care about the time. That day I forgot that Tainá had invited me to her party some days ago. I had to talk my mom into picking me up and leaving me at her party. I couldn't really see how we were going to get there, but I did it( I arrived at the end of the party). After that we continued friends, but now I have to arrive early at her parties. The funniest thing about this is: her birthday is on April 1st.
    One day my mom said I wouldn't study more at Candanguinho because of the payment and because they didn't teach us well. Now I study at Sigma, but Tainá doesn't. She went to Santo Antônio and her mother by no means got happy about this.
