Almost Sixteen Although not the longest day of the year, that summer’s eve in Colorado Springs of 1975 seemed to last a lifetime. Carole King’s “You’ve Got a Friend” was spinning on the AM radio in my friend Paul’s turquoise-blue Karmann Ghia. Eager to show off the fresh $89.99 special Earl Schrieb paint job on his self-refurbished car, he drove me around town. Their guarantee, “Bring your car in by 7 and we’ll have it out by 9 the same day, held true.” We learned to tape the trim and roll

“Friends come in all different shapes and sizes.” (Ahem, If You Could See Me Now”) What is it that makes a true friend? If you’re like me, you grew up thinking everyone was your friend, that the world was a peaceful place of love and unity and no one betrayed anyone. Until someone stole your favorite crayon, and later- stole your best friend or a spouse cheats on you. Once you’re an adult these childhood betrayals usually fade from their original intensity, but sometimes they do not. Sometimes,

for me to even imagine of a person without any good friend. A good friend fill up the vacuum which no family members can. No matter how close bond a person share with the family, there is always a limit beyond which a person cannot express their thoughts or confess about their problems to family members. A good friend remains unaffected by these limits and a person can pour their heart out in front of them. A friend plays a very poignant role in a person’s life

Raelyn Tagai Professor Pellegrino MUS 125 10 December 2014 Music is My Best Friend Music is such an important part of life. Throughout my life when I have been happy, sad, or wanting to just spend time on my own to get things done music has always been the answer. Music is all around us; while driving, eating at a restaurant, and while we wait for our car to be serviced at the dealership. A life without music is not truly a full life at all.
