My Friend Crystal Is A Person Of Significance

Today I am talking about how my best friend and I met. My best friend’s name is Sydney Rott. The story of how we met is a cliché but I am going to explain it anyway. We didn't know each other up until my Sophomore year and her Junior year. I decided I wanted to go out for the tennis team, even though I have never really played before, I still decided to join. Sydney was the number one player for the Harrisburg Tennis Team. I thought that she was a brat when I first met her, but as time went on I started to like her.

How important is freedom? Certainly many people would choose not to be a slave, but what about having the autonomy to make their own decisions and not be judged, ridiculed or criticized for their choices? Imagine having the same qualifications but being paid less than a coworker in the same company and department. What if an outsider told a person how many children they were going to have and when they had to have them, not fair, right? Crystal Eastman, a feminist, wrote an essay in 1920 titled, "Now We Can Begin": What's Next?. The purpose of her essay was to show how women did not have true freedom and were not being treated as equals when compared to men and to get to society to change this. Unfortunately, Eastman was not successful in getting society to change their ways since there is still not a level playing field for men and women today. Crystal Eastman believed women did not have the true freedom they deserved due to pay inequality, the perception of gender roles of man versus a woman, and the pressure on women to have children.

Three summers ago I arrived at the sunny shores of Camp Lake Hubert. It was my seventh summer and I was going for the highest award in sailing. Nervous to meet the new sailing director who I would be working closely with over the next eight weeks. I started the long walk with my friends down to the sailing dock. We did not go sailing on the first day. We stayed on shore and went over parts of the boat and played get to know you games. Once the activity was over I went over to her to introduce myself and talk about my award. Her name was Steffyy she was 5”2’ and from Liverpool England. During free swim, we talked about what my award was going to entail and got to know each other. As the session went on I was completing requirements at a quick

Some people come into our lives and quickly go. Some stay for a while and leave footprints on our hearts. And we are never ever the same. That person was named Hannah.China is where I met her. Hannah came from South America and her family moved there when she was three years old. When I met her, Hannah was six and I was five. We met each other when I was learning how to Rollerblade. At that time my family wanted me to do many things so I learned many things like how to play the guzheng, a Chinese instrument, dancing, rollerblade, and ice skate. Hannah edified me how to Rollerblade and in exchange I had to hang out with her. At the time, I celebrated she was certainly an intriguing person to hang out with.

My other friends include Caroline Kelly, Caitlyn McCoy, Macy Warren, Madeline Russo, and Lauren Davis. I rely on them for a lot, and they’re really great people I’m proud to call friends. I went to camp in Maine in the Summer of 2014 and went this year as well, I had an amazing time and met so many people. One in particular is named Ella. She’s 2 years older than me but it doesn’t feel like it at all, and we’re best friends, she has some mental health issues so she couldn’t attend camp last Summer but she’s receiving help now and I have full confidence that she’ll be okay in no time at all. She lives in NYC where I hope to visit her someday, but for now texting and skype are a good

My rock's name is Crystal L Meyer. SHe is so shiny she doesn't change colors underwater or on the streak tile. The crystals are spread throughout her. She also has a dent in her head from bungy jumping and her harness getting loses.She fell to her death at least that was everyone thought but she survived. She is mixed with three colors red, orange, and black. These colors are spread throughout her body. She is 2.1 cm long and 2.4 cm wide. She is pretty small. She also weighs 18 grams.

An electronic beep of an alarm clock begins Crystal's day. She wakes up, groggy, swinging her legs to the edge of her bed while rubbing her shoulder. The cold wooden floor against her feet sends small shivers up her back, as she walks across the room to her dresser. She thumbs through her shirts in the top drawer, quickly deciding on a black stone wash tee. She spends even less time choosing her pants, grabbing the first pair of pants in the bottom drawer, dark blue skinny jeans. In the bathroom she quickly showers, styles her hair, and does her make-up, making herself look presentable for her job. She wakes up her son, who after ten minutes drags himself out of bed, and gets ready for the day. She hands him the lunch she packed for him,

I’ve known Venus since she was born. She’s so beautiful and the youngest in their family and they used to live two doors away from us. We used to call her Nono when we were kids, you know how each one had some sort of nicknames. Anyway, Venus is my cousin, her father was my father’s brother (in spirit, because they grew up together). Venus and her siblings (4 of them) and us (also, 4 of us) were really, really close, as in best mates in everything. We played together, went on holidays together, did all the usual teen-ager fun, parties, secrets, messing around, experiments, and on and on. We shared a lot of experience and memories. Now we are all in different places with our own families, but we still keep contact and through social media, have

On the way fans stopped and asked for photos, Sophie taking their phones and snapping the pictures happily, although after ten minutes I could see the annoyance building in her. But I remained in place taking pictures and hugging my fans. Once the dispersed I walked over and took her hand in mine and continued walking. Eventually reaching the coffee shop, with Sophie taking a seat near the back while I went to order.

Unfortunately, she was not able to attend another pottery, craft sale show. She had undergone chemotherapy treatment two days prior. Knowing how she depended on this income, I volunteered to do it for her, to be honest, I didn't really want to, I have so much I need to do to prepare for college, but she really needs the money to pay her mounting medical bills. So I was able to set up and run the booth for her. Once again, I got more out of helping her than I ever could imagine. So many of her pottery students, and her regular customers asked how she was doing. Everyone was so concerned. Loretta adds warmth to a room, when she is not there her presence is greatly missed. It like a sun hidden behind a cloud on a windy day. She always offers to pay me, but there is no way I can take any money from her, she has given me so much. When she thanks me, with tears in her eyes, I know I did the right thing and I would do it all over again. Our friendship is unique, we both have something to give to each other. Mine is time and strength hers is kindness and

It was good having dinner with my friend Tiara McKeithan. She is one of my closest friends, and we only met 8 months ago. However, it feels like I have known her my entire life. She is extremely kind, generous, and humble. We have already gone through so much together. We argue sometimes, but as I always say, "that's what happens with family. You fight. Get over it. Move on." She is family and I love her. I cannot wait to see what the next 8 months or 8 years takes us.

Falcia was a Girl I knew for at least 3 years and It probably was one of the best friendships I had with a women. Falcia was six and 3 inches tall, A little heavy set but to me she was perfect because I wasn’t that skinny either. Me and Falcia started to get closer after the school year went on, I would never thought we would get like this; But Its life. Falcia had this swag to her, something that a lot of girls lacked. She had a shoe game out this world and she drove a 2013 Chevy impala when I see her I knew she was mine. I and Falcia didn’t get along as much, because she knew I was talking to a couple of girls but It didn’t stop us from talking because she loved me.

My pulchritudinous, tenth-grade girlfriend smiled with her lustrous smile when we saw each other. I remember the way she looked at me every time we hung out with each other knowing that we are more than just in a relationship we were each other's best friend. What happened next stunned me in a way that can’t be explained, she pulls out this glass heart and hands it over to me and tells me it’s mine to keep and that it’ll mean something someday. I didn’t understand at the time what the point of the glass heart was so I kindly just told her “thank you” and gave her a hug, but in all honesty, I was confused at what she was meaning when she handed it to me and told me it would mean something someday. I still remember everything we did that day

I boarded a train to Arizona and saw Livsly running to catch up. When she saw me on the train she stopped and fell to her knees, crying, looking at the photo.

On October 31st 2014, I attended my best friend’s halloween party. We all had to dress up and arrive at her house at ten o’clock. This was the first non-birthday party I had ever attended and I was excited to finally be out of the house past nine o’clock. My best friend and I decided to get ready together. She chose to dress up as Marilyn Monroe and I as Daisy from The Great Gatsby. Our costumes were intricate and realistic. She wore the typical Marilyn Monroe white dress and a bright red lip; while I wore a gold tiered flapper dress with a jeweled and feathered headdress. By the time we were finished getting ready, the party was about to start. By eleven o’clock the party was finally getting started. The music was booming and everyone was dancing; when suddenly I received a text. It read, “I see you.” It was signed by someone named “JJ.” I didn’t think anything of it because it was Halloween and
