Who is someone you really admire?

I really admire my best friend julieth paola, i met her in elementary school. she's fairly outgoing and nice; because she has many friends. some people think she's gossipy, but she's basically just talk-active. She's stylish and she's able to make up incredibly quickly, but slightly disorganized she never find her things and her bedroom is hardly ever organized. She's not dishonest at all; julie and i are pretty reliable with everyone and we say ourselves the thruth.

Julieth and i both enjoy going to parties and we love english .I'm really creative but she doesn't like to draw or making things. she thinks handicrafts are boring... sometimes she's little jocker and that mind me. However, she's laid-back and she always give me good advice. When i have a problem i can always count on her!!!

OFFICIALLY DEAD

This story was about a man called Colin Fenton. He had a software company. He always was traveling for his job. One day he was in a business trip, he went out to eat. While he was having dinner in a bar Colin met a guy called Jhon Bentley. It seem they were identical brother twins.

Jhon Bentley and his wife Linda Bentley became "Colin's friends" because they were planning to rob a jewerly store and they needed Colin's help because colin and jhon were identical. This was the Bentleys' plan: they wanted Colin travel to other city and he registrer in a famous hotel with Jhon's identification; While they robbed the jewerly store. So that, jhon got the perfect alibi and the police couldn't suspect of him.

Colin acept the deal because he needed the money to save his own company from bankruptcy and support his wife, Julie... Regrettable when Colin he was driving the Jhon's car to go to other city he had a car accident and he died.

The Bentleys' used this tragedy to deceive everybody. Linda said to the police her husband was dead and not Colin.

A couple weeks later the Bentleys' robbed the store; apparently anybody suspected them. However a few year later the police investigeted and found out the crime. Linda and Jhon Bentley were send to prision.

This story taught me something important about the result of to make bad desicions. Sometimes the people got regrettable consecuences to involve in shady business, maybe because they need to pay their debts or earn much money. I recomend it.
