My DD NEEDED personal letters of reference for a couple of local scholarships she applied for. They specifically stated this was NOT to come from a teacher or school person. It had to be a personal reference. She used our neighbors also...she was their babysitter for a long time and they knew her well (she got the scholarship, by the way).

I agree....letter two is better. Letter one just blabs on and on...and isn't very succinct.
