I always wanted to be friends with Zoey. I remember in 3rd grade I saw her at recess. I went over to talk to her because my friend was over there. I thought she was really cool.

Likbot is a guy that I seen around the workplace all the time, a guy that would do all of his work on time always. Though the one thing that was weird was that he would never do is that he would never talk to anybody.
