My cousin oftenmemy English.

My best friend and I are in the same school. Her name is Marcela. She is beautiful with long black hair, round black eyes and a small nose. She is of medium build and medium height. She doesn't like dress up, so she usually wears jeans and a T-shirt or sweater.

Marcela and I are always talking or laughing together. She is a very nice and outgoing girl. She has many friends at school. When I am not happy, I like talking to her. And she always tries her best to make me happy.

We have the same interests. We both enjoy playing the guitar and singing. We like going to the movies. Sometimes in summer, I go with her and her family to their summer house by the lake. We usually spend most of the afternoon swimming, but sometimes we go fishing. In the evenings, we walk into town and see a movie or stay at home and watch TV. It's fun to be with her.
