For as long Amanda could remember Manda had always been more outgoing than her. When they were in school the teachers would call them Amanda #1 and Amanda #2, it was always “Amanda #2 stop talking." Manda’s outgoing and sometimes loud personality had never bothered her though because it allowed her to remain shy. When ever they were faced with confrontation Manda always stood her ground, never allowing either one of them to get pushed around. Sometimes she thought that they had nothing in common besides their names. They evened looked like opposites, Manda was 5'6"with brown curly hair past her shoulders, and brown eyes. Amanda was about 5’3 with straight dark blond hair, she used to wear it long but for the summer she cut it shorter about to her chin, and her eyes were a light shade of blue.
They were exact opposites in so many ways, but as the old saying goes "Opposites Attract." The pair was very close, they knew everything about each other, they knew what the other was thinking before she said it. There was nothing they wouldn’t do for each other, and when they decided going to Florida together they knew the other would always be there, so they weren’t scared about being away from home because they had each other.
"So, are you finally finished packing," Amanda asked. "Yah, now you are sure we can trust Nate to drive the truck down for us." "Manda, he’s my cousin I’m sure he’s not going to jack our moving van and all our clothes." "I know I just don’t want any of my stuff broken." "Girl we packed everything breakable into that truck very carefully, if it gets broken its your and my fault for not packing it right. So hurry up and put your suitcases in so he can leave and we can get going."
Manda put the last of her suitcases into the truck and reminded Nate to drive carefully, "Don’t worry I will," he reassured her. Then she hopped into the passenger seat of Amanda’s red jeep Cherokee and pulled on her Ray-Band sunglasses. She popped the new CD by Next, and cranked up the speakers as "Two Close" came on, "okay" she said as Amanda started the car, "I’m ready." They backed out of the driveway waved to their families and looked at each other with huge grins. "FLORIDA HERE WE COME!!!!!!!!!"
