{ Tribute }

I was looking through my school files (now that sounds geeky.) and I came across this. It's something I had written for trying out for the position of Literary Editor in the yearbook. We were assigned to write about someone. I had chosen to write about a very dear friend of mine. And I thought I should share. I'm very proud of it--not in the way you may think, but I am proud of it because of who it talks about.

Carla Alessandra Ana Garcia Dario. Or better yet, Carlie; as most of her friends call her. It is almost unfair to be given only a few sentences to perfectly capture such a wonderful personality, but I will try my best.

Let me start by saying that having Carlie as a friend, classmate or schoolmate is a grand privilege--it guarantees fun talks, sound advice and constant support. With that unquenchable thirst for adventure and that ever-present smile, who can deny any chance of a relationship with her? Indeed, she's become a friend to us all. Based on my experiences, I will tell you that she is one of those people who will give her all in friendships; she aces all standards of being a "friend" and because of this, I consider myself lucky. Her bubbly personality always manages to make even the most serious or down-trodden crack a smile. Because of this, she has all the reasons to be admired and emulated. I am one of many who wish to learn from her and in some way become Carlie-istic--yes, she deserves her own adjective. As one of the youngest people in the batch, she has displayed maturity and level-headedness that both younger and older students find admirable.

Not only does she excel in relations and friendships, she has also achieved much academically because of her ability to emerge from school hurdles certainly not unscathed, but indeed experienced and more determined than the last. She constantly proves herself to her peers and teachers through her dedication to schoolwork and responsibilities. Her ability to juggle family life, school life and social life is one of her strongest points. She also is also blessed with many enviable talents. She is musically-inclined; having a voice that can make hearts swoon. She is artistically-inclined; usually fond of drawing odd (but cute) characters, making new (and even cuter) names for them--displaying a boundless sense of imagination and creativity. She is athletically-inclined; she has won many awards in fencing competitions, as a result of continuous training and dedication. This shows that she is well-rounded and grounded, indeed an achiever in all aspects.

So much can be said, and so much is left to say about Carlie. She's the one with the bright smile and the kind words. She’s the one who manages to face all that Life throws at her and in the end say, 'Touche.'
