She is the friend whose life goes a mile a minute, but like the Energizer Bunny or Paris Hilton (minus the whole jail rep and bad-girl vibe), she just keeps going and going and…. Always making the most of every situation and multitasking while she’s at it, this pal is friendly and has a knack for making new friends while she’s at it, always on the go, and never without a smile.

“My friend Mickela never sits still for more than a minute. She goes crazy if she is not busy with at least three things at once. After teaching aerobics courses for the past few years, she definitely has the energy! She is always happy to see you, and LOVES a long evening of karaoke. She knows everyone, and will make new friends instantly wherever she is!”

Best Life of the Party Girlfriend

Charlene

She puts the life in living, especially in the liveliest city in the world, New York! She knows every event going on in the city—from the world’s largest pillow fights to where we can catch underground salsa dancing. She started a blog, Facebook page and regular email blast of all the activities going on each day, and which ones she plans on going to. Her gung-ho “embrace life” mentality leads everybody around her to celebrities, prizes, and the coolest events you never knew were going on…that is, until you met Charlene!
