The Eulogy of Nicole - Drama

Family, friends, loved ones of Nicole, my name is Shandi and I would like to thank you all for coming tonight. I have known Nicole since we were three years old when she moved next door to me. We were very close, and even when Nicole moved away when we were seven, we always stayed in contact. If you had ever met Nicole, you could tell three things about her just from one conversation. 1) She was a very happy person, 2) She knew that appearances are important, but that doesn’t mean that she was shallow, but like to look her best, and 3) She liked to keep thing interesting. Why go simple when things can be complicated? Nicole was great with people, so it was no surprise that she was voted class president in high school. After we had finished high school, Nicole and I decided to travel Europe together, and what an experience it was. Nicole was always the wild one out of the two of us. She was the person that convinced me to go on that trip, and who was I to argue with Nicole, who could debate any side of any argument. After the Europe trip, Nicole moved away from Winnipeg and into New York City after getting an internship spot at Seventeen Magazine. It was her dream job, and even though she had hard times, she stuck through it. After about one year of being an intern, she got her first job actual writing job at Seventeen; she was the assistant editor of the fashion section of the magazine. This was Nicole’s big break. After that job, she kept getting promoted, and eventually, she became editor-in-chief of the magazine. Now that she had success, she just needed to find that perfect guy. And she did. Nicole and Austin have two beautiful children, Blair and Tiffany. When I was told that Nicole had been in that awful accident, it felt like my world was being turned upside-down. She was my best friend and had helped me and so many other people along with their lives. I honestly had no idea what I was going to say today, but I was flipping through one of Nicole’s magazines that she had made, and these inspiring words hit me “Fashion isn’t what you wear, but how you wear it. It is the confidence that you have in yourself”. This perfectly describes Nicole. She wanted to make an impression on the world, and I can say with great confidence that she did.
