Some years ago when I was studying at the University, we lived in the city of Guadalajara in Jalisco, Mexico. It was located 500km SW from "Mazatlan"(my home town).Four friends and myself, three of them were brothers, all of us from the same City.
Rafael, Paco and Arturo were brothers, Rafael and Paco, studied Medicine, Arturo, was my best friend and studied Civil Engineering,Antonio studied Public Accounting and I was studying Industrial Engineering.
Arturo and I were best friends, and shared the same name, he was very intelligent and he loved politics and I always asked him why he didn't study for a degree but he always said it is like his "hobby" I learned many things of him but unfortunately he died at 32 years in an accident.
Despite his intelligence and maturity was too distracted by many activities that he enjoyed developing such as: Write a periodical, which he invited me to help with but I worked and had very little time, to participate in political elections both school policies, activities rotarac altruistic in the club to which we belong and select sports especially basketball.
That's how we spent our time students until the day that we, graduated and went to rent a tuxedo for Mass, graduation ceremony and dance all around at the same day; That day he was ready two hour before that I, because he had to pick up his girlfriend and then his parents at the hotel.
Then something funny happened: we accidently put on each other's tuxedos. As he was a size bigger than me, the waist was 30 for him and 28 for me and he wore my tuxedo that fit too tight and I had no other option than to wear one that was too big that of the very strange because, I knew I had brought the right size, and I was very upset that I was wearing too big pants and I hold it getting my belt tight, then I went to my Parents to pick them up at the Hotel then we went to the events, when we got at the salon , I said to my friend, Hey! Don't your clothes feel too tight? He answered, Oh yeah! I Thought they were too thight but I thoughts is because for the nervous tension he said, then I said it to me is very weak that is why you took my suit and I had no choice but to use yours. I said Let's go to the bathroom to check the size, and effectively he had my suit so right there we changed clothes.

Very interesting story, Arturo. The only thing missing is the actual quotation marks - we can work on that in class. See you soon!
