Writing project 1

I'm a little late on posting this.

Character description
            In writing about another, I could very well select a sibling so as to simplify the descriptive process for me, but that wouldn’t be any good. So instead I’ve decided to speak of someone else.

When life gives you lemons, you make do and in this persons wake when life gives you a name, simplify it. This person’s name is technically Catalina but as aforementioned, she prefers Caty. Upon meeting her, we had only made acquaintances seeing as her gaggle of friends were juxtaposed with mine, but we still got along well enough. It was nearing the end of our high school careers when we ultimately began conversing on a regular basis. In the field of aesthetics, she fares well standing at a smidge taller than sixty-two inches; she sees with brown eyes and displays a cutely shaped bob haircut. Her hair being so short now, it was once much longer and had some extensions but then it all came off at her will and now she wears her hair swimmingly. Quirkiness is one adjective that does not just float into the mind when thinking of Caty but more so jumps out at you like a leaping leopard attacking its prey. In fact this is just one of her many qualities that add to her eccentric aura. Eccentricity happens to be a main component of her allure. Style of course is a completely different matter but nonetheless pertinent in the description of another. Indeed her taste of clothing is rather nice and practical though it wouldn’t be anything too distracting but something completely wonderful when given individual thought. While talking to her, it can be some of the best conversation and flow and it doesn’t even need to be that important. Being around someone so easy to speak with when it is already so hard to actually communicate makes it feel like meeting with a kindred spirit. Hours speed by and trip on their way past when we sit down and gab; this is a monumental task with anyone else for me. As far as taking on new things, Caty does so in the blink of an eye. Continuing on with school is a big step and Caty’s willingness to go full speed ahead is a quality that for me is incredibly commendable. She straight out of the gate went to a university and then transferred to ASU for there were more job opportunities and social life down in Tempe. This as common as it is, is not exactly easy and is worth applauding in my eyes. A habit that can be bothersome is the lack of communication but it’s not just on her end, it’s also on my end and it’s a habit that I want to grow out of but I think I’ll have to break this one on my own like the breaking of a whip on a mistreated circus animal. To finish my description of Caty, I will say that a friend is a great thing to find and an even better one to keep.
