It's always been a great feeling to know a lifetime friend will always be there. I found one, and fortunately, it was in my early days. As a child, both my parents worked full-time jobs in downtown Denver which, is an hour away from my house and school. At my elementary school, they offered a before and after school program called B.A.S.E., My parents decided to enroll me and my sister. A couple of hours before my official first day of kindergarten, I walked into B.A.S.E holding my father's hand in one hand and my brand new hello kitty water bottle in the other. At first, the room had a really heavy smell of Clorox and bleach. I walked up to the sign in counter nervously clutching my dad's hand. A strange man came up to me that had tattoos on his arms and piercings on his face and offered to instruct me on where and how to put my backpack away. I cautiously agreed. I always thought that people who had tattoos and piercings were bad people and I should stay away. I followed him and put my backpack away. I ran to my dad before he left, and gave him a great big hug. I tried not to cry, it was hard to resist. My dad left and I waved goodbye. The strange man asked if I wanted to play battleship. My inner momma bear came out and went into full protection mode of myself as a kindergartener. A couple of minutes later, we sat down at the brown country-style tables. We played for a little while and more kids, my age, came and started watching the game. The strange man
"Life without a friend is like death without a witness." -Spanish Proverb. We all have friends, different people have different tastes and temperaments and hence make different types of friends. They tend to bond with some and stay away from some. With time and growing trust, some people get really close to each other and remain true friends. They stand up for each other in times of need and provide full support when you lose confidence in yourself. However, every friend is not the same type. One might have more close friends than acquiantenaces, while others might have more acquaintenaces than close friends, but either way, majority of people that develop great friendships either fall into one of the
There are a lot of important things in life. However, one of the most important things for people to survive in this world is friendship. Without friendship, people can die of loneliness. What do you think about your friends? Do you like your friends? There are a lot of different types of friends. There are friends that I like and some friends with whom I do not get along. Friends with positive characteristics such as reliable, trustworthy and faithful whom I usually get along with are the one that tend to have more friends and the negative one whom I usually not get along with tend to be alone. However, friends with negative characteristic can also give us some good examples of seeing double sides of something, like, a character can be
Through my experiences I have come to realize that there are basically three types of friends a person can have. There are friends that I call “sometimes” friends, these people appear to be your friend but only when you are face to face with them, and when you are not around them they act more like a foe. They are often referred to as two faced or a back stabber. These types of friends are not very reliable nor should they be trusted. Another type of friend a person can have, and the best kind, is a “true” friend. A true friend is someone you know you can always trust and rely on no matter what. The last type of friend is the “acquaintance”. These are the type of friends that you do not necessarily hate, but at the same time you do
When the spring breeze starts to tickle my nose, my heart starts to tickle for the first time. It seems like I have a hay fever in my heart. It is beginning of my 4th grade year, but I do not really need to worry about making a new friend, because in my elementary school everyone's friend each other. Eui is one of my new friend that I met in 4th grade. He is tall as a redwood. His eye is really round like as a clock, but when I see his cute face I feel like all the clocks in the world are not working at all. My eye become camera when I see him. I only focused on him, accordingly everyone is blurry except him. His smile for me makes my heart tickle. Naturally, we also start to hang out after school. While I am waiting for him in front of my apartment smelling a fragrant spring breeze I start to concern about him. I could not hide my feeling anymore. I want to say that I like him as much as the size of the galaxy. CLANGING CLANGING, he appeared around the corner riding his bicycle. Bicycle wheels turn fast like as he is in hurry like Eui does. After he saw me he starts to smile at me while shaking hand with one hand that he is not holding a handle. His smile for me makes my heart tickle.
“We just need to go into town and ask if there is any near by cliffs.” Then she quickly adds, “Without sounding like we want to jump off it!”
The past few years, recognizably since I started High School, people started to bring to my attention that I don’t look like much of a friendly person. At first it confused me because I felt as if my intentions were good and my heart was kind, in other words, I was it was in my mind that people saw me as a caring individual. I had hopes that I just naturally came off as someone whom anyone could easily create a friendship with. After thinking on it some I concluded that it was probably because often I tend to be shy when it comes to meeting someone for the first time. Not always was I able to put myself out there and start chatting immediately with just anyone without knowing a thing about them. People would often judge me by how I looked and acted, considering I didn’t speak to everyone initially and I’d isolate myself in some moments, insinuating that I wasn’t someone they would like to converse with at first. Shy people are often viewed as beings who don’t want to associate with others often, however personally I love people in addition I enjoy speaking with most, anyone wanting to have a conversation.
Having a best friend is like having a second being to share your every movement and emotion with. They are there for you in your saddest and happiest moments. They give you the truest opinions, but will support you no matter what you decide to do. Once you become close enough with a person to call them your best friend, you unconsciously begin having identical likes and dislikes. You become inseparable, spending most of you days either hanging out or whining to them about any bothersome matter that you come across. Those are some of the characteristics of being true close friends. You never want them to be in harms way because you have developed a bond to that individual and realized what an amazing person they are. Trust me when I tell you, I never wanted to see my best friend of four years get hurt but when you are put in a situation like mine, it was bound to happen one way or another. One of the biggest dilemmas I have encountered was deciding what to tell my close friend and what not to for her own good. I would never have thought I would have to choose between my best friend’s trust or her happiness.
Friendship is weird. You select random strangers that have similar personality traits as you and then give them affection and plan activities that involves the other person. But before you were friends you were strangers — if you were to never cross paths or judged them the wrong way right off the bat — where would you be. My life has been affected in a way I will never really know why or how but it all started with my next door neighbor.
Every year, thousands of my church members travel through the states to gather together. We gather rain or shine in a farmer's field under a couple of enormous beige tents. Locations range from Washington and California to New York and Pennsylvania. The purpose is to come together to fellowship, praise God, and make church-wide decisions. I love being on the meeting grounds because I can feel God's presence, it truly is “wherever three or more are gathered in his name, he is in the midst of them.” Annual Meeting is a highlight of the year to all German Baptists.
There is always that one person that you have that knows all of your secrets, shares all of your jokes, listens to all of your gossip and is simply someone you can call your best friend. I live with that person, or at least I used to. Her name is Allison, my sister and my best friend. Looking back at every single memory I have, she is there in some form or fashion. She is there holding my hand my first day of preschool, wearing the same jean jacket as I because our mom loved it when we matched. She is there on the basketball court with me during my very first game, helping calm my nerves and stop my shaking. She is there holding me while I cry over my first heartbreak, reassuring me that things will get better. Even after she graduated, leaving me in high school alone, she is still there. She is at every game cheering me on from the stands and is always willing to help me with things such as homework or listen to my constant rants about teachers.
Friendship-noun- A relationship between friends is the definition in the book, but friendship is so much more than that. It is trust, dependability, happiness, a shoulder to cry on and a face to smile at. Friendships are a bond between people that connect them on a deeper level than some can understand. Some friendships might be great but others might be toxic to your life and they are not meant to happen. When friendships come along in life, they may last for a day or they may last for a month, but only the best of friendships last for years.
What is a friend? A friend is a person whom one knows and with whom one has a bond of mutual affection. Calling someone a friend is the second thing to calling someone family to me. A friend to me is someone that has been with you through good or bad times. This is important too because I think having good friend steer you into doing better things in life. You need good people like this in your people who make you better as a person. Let us talk about “Friends, Good Friends, and Such Good Friends.” Let us be honest we all have different kinds of friends that we like for different reasons. Some could be convenience friend where you only talk to them because you always seeing them and feels like they are friends. Two type of friends that are
I see the school in the distance and quickly head towards the entrance, to be greeted by my one and only friend; Ashley James. More like the only person in the whole world who actually talks to me out of choice. Well, at least without ulterior motives. At first people used to crowd around me, being the daughter of the Beta couple meant that there was a huge chance that I'd be powerful and definitely loaded.
When life is going just the way someone wants it to go they think that they have a lot of good friends. When that person is at a party they are hanging out and talking to a lot of people that they call really good friends, but when things go wrong they only had a bunch of people who liked them because they had money or had a lot of parties. It is never until someone is stuck in a ditch, or broke down in the middle of the night an hour and a half from the house, or need somewhere to stay because they could not pay rent until they really find out who their really good friends are. A really good friend is someone who is there for their friends whenever they are need.
Imaginary friends are common for kids to “play” with growing up, but in my case my imaginary friends were actual people who I just didn’t know. Growing up I learned I had two biological brothers that were adopted when I was one. I’d always dreamed about what it would be like to meet them and play with them. After sixteen years that dream became a reality.
