Some aspects of Squeaky that would not make me want to be her friend would be that she is definitely not the nicest person and sometimes she does not realize she hurts other people feelings to. She very easily gets mad as well and those character traits make her seem like a mean person even though she is not. Now the reason she acts like this is because she does not like getting talk bad about. So, I really do not blame her for that because I would act the same exact way as well. I personally don’t have a hard time getting mad and so does she so maybe that would be  reason to be a friend because we have that thing in common and also we both don’t like getting talked bad about so that could be another reason as well. So maybe we could actually become friends but probably not.

Sryy if personal

One main aspect of Squeaky that would make me want to be her friend is that she stands up for herself. When Gretchen tries to talk her down and be mean to her Squeaky stands up for herself. She doesn't just say ok and let Gretchen's words come true.

She stands up for herself and proves to Gretchen that she is able to win. I really like that quality of Squeaky because I have found that being able to stand up for yourself is a very important quailty to have. That way you don't have to ask others for help standing up for yourself.

    One of her aspects that I wouldn't like as a friend is that she gets mad easily, but this is not that big of a deal. The reason that it isn't that big of a deal that Squeaky gets mad easily is because, she mostly only gets mad at Gretchen and her friends. Also since she doesn't get mad at Raymond this makes me believe that she only get mad easily at her bullies. I would want Squeaky to be my friend because the qualities that she has are mostly good ones, and the bad qualities aren't that bad.
