Have you ever met a person who can be described in one word? Crazy. It is a simple word that can be followed by endless explanations. Monique is this crazy person to me. She is a great friend and she always comes up with new and creative ways to make people around her laugh. A lot. We think very differently in many ways but, that doesn´t matter because I believe that, that is why she is a close friend of mine.
She has always been a very cute person to me. Someone who is there when I need her. If I am in a happy mood she will laugh with me for hours without even having a true reason to laugh. When I feel sad or somehow depressed she accompanies me by giving me advice or simply being there. She shows that she cares.
Something that distinguishes Monique from almost everyone that I know is her selflessness. At break time sometimes I find myself without money to buy anything or during class when I starve and have nothing to eat. She finds ways to help me with small things or big things. She does this to anyone who shows to be her friend. This is why I LOVE MONIQUE VON GABRIEL!!!

MAFE!!
Her real name is Maria Fernanda but everyone calls her MAFE. She was born in Peru but up until last year she was living here, in São Paulo. Now she is currently back home in her senior year. I really do hope that she ends up coming for college in the city because not only is she one of my best friends but, she has also given me many, many unforgettable moments.
She was the one that presented chapel to me when I first arrived in Brazil back in the year 2006 when I was a 7th grader. We didn’t have the best start but by the end we had already become inseparable. She is hilarious, charming, smart, influential, and pretty. She tought me a lot about life and how to look at it from completely different perspectives.

We have a few traditions that occur almost every time I meet her. We like to go shopping a lot where we can try on clothes that will NEVER be in our wardrobe while we take pictures. We later enjoy ice cream or depending on where we are we go to Franz Café. Our biggest tradition is Martinezlandia which, is nothing huge or anything like that. We do a sleepover at my house where we watch various movies, we bake too many cakes to eat, and we talk about our feelings for endless hours.

Heath Ledger
Heath Ledger is to me, one of the greatest actors thatever existed. He had a lot of spirit and when it came to playing a significant role, he really knew exactly how to get into the role. Unfortunatly it was too much and that led to his death. He was born in Western Australia, in Perth, April 1979. In High school he picked to do drama enstead of cooking and even though hes mates didn't apreciate his obvious talent, later he dropped out of school hoping to become the actor Hollywood needed. At the age of 17 him and his friend headed out to Sydney to persuade an acting career. He wasn't very fortunate and he got his first acting job in a low budjet film in 1997. The name of the film was Blackrock. Not until 1999 when he played a funcky character in 10 Thing I Hate About You.
A problem that Heath had in becoming an actor is that he was already tagged with being a "pretty boy" and an actor of not much depth. For five years he desperatly tried to sway this image that was stuck with him away. In all of his films that I saw he always managed to convince me that he was truly that character. He was last seem on screen in The Dark Night as the Joker. Unfortunatly for the world lost one of it's best actors in January 22, 2008 in his apartment in Manhattan. It was found that he died of overdose of perscription drugs to sleep and anty-anxiety medication. He was having a lot of personal problems when he played the Joker because he was beleiving that he truly was that person.
Even though the world lost him in a way he still lives inside many of us because his performances penetrated us and left a mark that will never be forgotten.
