"My friend is wacky"

My friend is the wackiest person I’ve ever know. She has driven into the McDonalds drive through and placed her order into the trashcan instead of the speaker. Another time she discovered that she had washed her checkbook with her load of dark clothes. (Actually it was a load of multi-colored clothes because she never sorts her laundry). She has mistakenly thrown her cell phone, Diamond earrings, various pieces of her grandmother’s silver, and the bag of newly purchased light bulbs into the trash compactor. I could go on and on, but wouldn’t you agree that she is a completely wacky?

Word: Hyperactive

Telling: “ My friend is hyperactive”

Showing: My friend is the most hyperactive person I’ve ever known. He can’t stay in one place without doing anything, one day we were at the church and he took a pen and started scratching the church wooden seats. Also, when we were at school he had to drink some pills to be controlled and quite because his hyperactivity didn’t let him pay attention, he was failing all subjects because he got distracted with everything and he didn’t stop doing something else. He drew, he played with his materials, he bothered his friends next to his desk, he threw paper airplanes and he couldn’t stay calm. I can describe many moments were he was hyperactive, but with all I’ve said would you agree he is hyperactive?
