want to tell you about my best Mend. I have
several Mends. But the best among them is
Ficky.
Ficky is younger than me. She is a very
funny and interesting person. With Ficky, you
can talk on various topics. I met Ficky this
summer when I was resting in the camp; she
was sharing the room with me. When I saw her for
the first time I did not like. After 1 talked to her, I
found out she was my soul mate. We like the same
music and we also do the same sport. I really want
to see her again, but I cant because she lives far
away from me. But she and I chat on the internet.
