Graduation Speech : My First Best Friend Essay

She giggled. “I know he likes me. I wish he would just ask me out alread-”

I remember how I felt that day, It's a feeling that continuously haunts me and no matter how hard I try to forget it always finds its way back into my mind. It's a mixture of hurt and anger because I never thought that someone so close could spread such a rumor. I would never do anything to hurt anyone, especially try to take my closest friends fiancé for myself. The reason for which she assumed that I was capable of doing that, is a puzzle that I am yet to solve. As despicable as this may seem, however, I am very thankful for this event, for her assumption has taught me a very valuable lesson.

I am “that” person because I have always been very involved in my school community. I am in the orchestra and band, I am a member of Best Buddies, and I am a member of my student council. Within these groups, I have been the president of the orchestra for 3 years, I was the shadow president and social media chair for Best Buddies, I was the secretary of my junior class, and I am the secretary of the student senate. I have also been a member of the Unified volleyball team, Unified Cheerleading team, and swim team.

It is amazing how many things we take for granted. We make plans for the day, and don't think twice about how those plans can be taken away in the blink of an eye. I never thought much about it myself, until I was faced with the shock, and undeniable truth of my cousin's death. I don't think anyone really thinks about tragedy until they are actually faced with shocking news.

I know I have told you a million times, but thank you. For honestly just being my best friend. You have seen sides of me that most people haven’t. You have shown me that how many friends you have, really doesn't matter. If you have one true friend, you are set. And you have been that one best friend for me. I have watched as you and I have grown so much closer over this past year and I really do believe that if I hadn’t of had you in my life, I wouldn’t be where I am now. I know that we have talked about this so many times, but I still can’t believe the way we became friends. Like what are the odds that both of us apply for a job at the same time at the same place? Like I realize that Beatrice is not that big, but still, what is the

In second grade at Blue River Elementary School, my friend Peyton and I were not very good friends. One day Peyton's mom came in to eat lunch with her. In elementary school, we could pick a friend to eat with us in the back room with our parents. That day Peyton chose me to eat lunch with her which was surprising because I didn't really know her. At lunch, we learned a lot about each other. At recess, we played with each other without anyone else. The next day her mom came again and she happily picked me. That day was like magic because from that day on we were best friends. Even though we had been friends since preschool we didn't officially know each other until that time. We now say that we were meant to become best friends and

Have you ever had someone in your life who helped you figure out who you were? Someone who showed you the right path. Someone who was there right next you even if you did not take that path. Someone who always seemed to be right, but never held it against you when you were not. Someone whom without your life would most likely be entirely different. I have. Her name was Jessica.

Standing atop the ledge of the Golden Gate Bridge is so intimidating. I've stood in this spot countless times, however, I've always wussed out of actually doing the unthinkable. With no one to help this uninteresting high schooler out, this girl doesn’t even have a single friend in this new place. Because all of my technology has been broken in someway, I've not had a chance to talk to my old friends, but it's not like I had numerous friends in my old place. Nevertheless, the one friend I thought I had was Corrine, but she moved on and found other friends after I moved away. So much for best friends forever.

Did you know that you only need just one friend to make kind of your day, really contrary to popular belief. When I specifically was 14 ½, I met a girl that I have never seen before. We started talking and eventually bonded it was for all intents and purposes weird. I didn’t know what it meant. As we basically grew closer, we started talking about anything and everything. I think I made a really good choice by choosing a friend as good as that in a very major way. I can already for all intents and purposes tell we for the most part are gonna last a sort of long time in life, contrary to popular belief. My best friend particularly makes life for all intents and purposes easier and mostly keeps me out of trouble, or so they kind of thought. It all for the most part started when school literally started back after the summer. I basically got on the bus. On my way to school, I seen this girl sitting on the back of the bus. I kind of noticed that she never was on my bus before. So I particularly decided to specifically go say,” hi.” She literally said ,” hey.” I asked,” are you new here?” She said,”yes.” I said well my name is,” Kenoisha, What’s yours?” She said,”Brianna.” Then we generally started talking about our neighborhood. That we lived in it looked okay from the outside, but don’t let that fool you! In the inside of our neighborhood it”s a hot mess in a major way. We do our best to keep it clean in a big way. After we talked about the neighborhood we particularly begin

I have a friend named Stacey. She is one of the kindest persons I have ever known. Moreover, she is generous, patient and possesses a magnificent sense of humor. We have been through so much together, we are basically sisters. We met on the first day of school in sixth grade, both of us terrified by the massive size of the middle school. Stacey comes from an educated family, her father is a school principal and her mother is also a teacher, so Stacey is known for being punctual, well-educated, and having good manners. She is a member of her church, she sings in the choir, plays the guitar and teaches Sunday school. On Saturdays, she devotes her time feeding the homeless in downtown Dallas. Stacey is selfless because she adopted three girls and cats so they will have a home. Stacey teaches math at an elementary, in fact, she was presented with an award for being teacher of the year. In spite of these qualities, Stacey says she cannot stop eating junk food. Stacey says she does not have time to cook healthy meals, because she has a busy work schedule. Stacey also says healthy food are too expensive and cannot afford to purchase them. Finally, Stacey says she is not disciplined and it is too hard to stick to a healthy food diet. I have some advice for her.

Have you ever had a best friend move away? Me and Emma had been best friends for 2 years. She was like a walking joke book because she was so funny, probably the next Albert Einstein because she is so smart, and the nicest person you would ever meet. We've lived in the same neighborhood for 3 years, but we became best friends 1 year later.

Have you ever seen someone treated so unbadly and felt as if you were the one being treated bad? Have you ever seen them cry so much, and it makes you cry, too? Well, I have the feelings is heinous. Imagine being hated just because of the shoes you have on. You cannot make sense of why, right? Well, that is how I feel when I see someone being treated wrongly because of who they are. I don’t see how they could do it someone they “love”. All I knew was this world is full of horrible people, and I have to love my sister unconditionally.

Everyone has friends, and usually they are people with similar personalities. Some are similar to the point that it is shocking. They seem to walk, talk and even eat the same. Others are so different that people wonder how they can stand each other, let alone be friends. That’s what people usually think of my best friend Gaby and I. Whenever we are together, I also wonder how we became so close. She and I are extremely different; our temperaments, personalities, and work ethics are on two opposite parts of a spectrum. But despite our differences we are very close; and we have become better people with the help of one another.

“Can you drive me to Brooklyn’s please?” I glance at the clock to see that it is already 5:11.

So here he was, finally, finally, heading to his best friend. The launch, which was rougher than he expected, bruised him, but didn’t immobilize him for too long. In no time he floated around the shuttle cabin in null gravity with ease, surprising everyone, including himself, with his quick adaptation to the new atmosphere. With his beloved no more than a few months away, Harry shook with excitement, at last feeling free—a word he heard often but never seeming to apply to him. Regulations only allowed him to bring a few personal unessential items along; he only carried Huam’s pen.
