My Best Friend

The term empire has both positive and negative meanings towards it. Some positives of empire are its tolerance of diversity and culture, size, opportunity, and the fact that people who held a variety of beliefs, customs, and spoke different languages were recognized and embraced. On the other hand, the negative aspects of empire are the distant leaders it had, slavery, and the fact that some culture and diversity were not accepted. Anthony Pagden elaborates on the positives and negatives of European empires, along with illustrating European empires civilization and greatness in his book, Peoples and Empires (2001). Peoples and Empires defines European empire from Greece to the present.

As we got to know each other better, I realized just how much friendship meant to him and why trusting me was difficult for him. Awley told me about how he was the “weird” one at school. How the other kids did not want to sit with him at lunch and would not play with him at recess. One of the most heartbreaking things to hear is a six year-old kid telling you about how he is lonely at school everyday. He tells me about how he used to be friends with this girl, but she eventually did not want to sit with him because one of the other boys had told her not to.

One day in 6th grade I met my hero and best friend. She saved me by many things that day, but this was the most caring one. We were walking around a round the gym and talking, when we walked into a boy I had problems with. We lashed out at each other saying stuff like "you stink!" , "stop being and arse!", etc. She tried to get me to stop arguing eventually I did, after him and his minions stomped away.

Me and Ally’s friendship has always been like a roller coaster. There are some ups and downs, but it is always full of excitement and rushes. I’ll never regret meeting her because she made me the person I am today. She’s taught me how to get out of my shell more and be myself, and most importantly she has taught me what having a proper best friend is supposed to be like. To be able to talk to them without any judgement or criticism while also being able to have the best time of your life. Meeting her was the best decision I had ever made, and I will never regret

In the midst of my tears at the beginning of that car ride in August, my mom said, “you’re going to make friends. You’re going to form deeper friendships than you have ever known to last a lifetime.”

I recall meeting him that first day and acknowledging how great I felt simply being with him. It was as though a weight had been lifted from my shoulders. I all of a sudden felt free and loose, as though I needed to stress over nothing in life until kingdom come. He would be exceptionally strong of my thoughts and my choices and would urge me to feel free to do what I needed the most. He gave me the foundation bolster that I had constantly expected to further to my arrangements yet had felt so frail some time recently. He had a skill of making me snicker and like myself and whatever was going ahead around then. Beside making me feel candidly steady, safe, and secure, he likewise made me feel extremely secure fiscally. He made it look so natural, as though I would never need to stress over cash until the end of time. He made me feel that I could believe him with regardless. This is maybe the reaason that I wedded him in any case, as a result of how he great he made me feel about myself: extremely sheltered, secure, and

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

Today I am talking about how my best friend and I met. My best friend’s name is Sydney Rott. The story of how we met is a cliché but I am going to explain it anyway. We didn't know each other up until my Sophomore year and her Junior year. I decided I wanted to go out for the tennis team, even though I have never really played before, I still decided to join. Sydney was the number one player for the Harrisburg Tennis Team. I thought that she was a brat when I first met her, but as time went on I started to like her.

I have met this amazing man a year ago, he completely changed my life. He made me a better person. He is my equal and he is my world. It is only

Have you ever had a friend that stayed with you for over 12 years? I have, and it's been a long and exciting ride. Let me take you through this story that lasted that long. It all started when I was three years old. My Mom and Dad bought a Spider-Man bike. At the time the bike was too big for me so I had to wait until I was old enough to ride it. Finally, I was big enough to ride the little piece of metal on wheels I was waiting to ride for what felt like ages. my Mom, Dad and I went to Kennedy Park. I envisioned that I was going to crash. Although I was scared to ride that fear turned into excitement. Before I knew it, my Dad pushed me and my little red and blue bike down a grassy hill. That little moment got me that much closer to what

Andrew and I’s friendship. First year we were not even friends; kind of hated each other. We had a mutual friend so we started to be around each other more, where we became friends. To now this day, we are best friends and are in golden days of life.

In one’s life, there are many core memories that make up who a person is and many life changing events or people that help shape your identity. At the time, one might not realize how much someone changed their life, or how an event completely changed them as a person, but in the end, one will be truly grateful for the events and people who helped them become who they are; just as I am. The day I met my best friend changed a lot of aspects of my life and helped shape my identity. We met at basketball practice over Thanksgiving break this past year, and we had never talked before because I was scared that I would not be funny enough or she would think I was not popular enough. Then, one day we were in the middle of a drill and I decided step

My freshman year, I became best friends with Whitney Turner, a senior, we did everything together it seemed like. She did so much for me that year, from taking me to practice to giving great advice. My sophomore year I decided to not only play volleyball and basketball but to also run track, one of my worst decisions I made I think. This year was one of my favorites for sure. I had many friends who were older and I was able to hang out with them all of the time. One of my really good friends was Kaylee Irwin, you could find us together all of the time. We have so many memories together from going to the lake to driving around listening to music. During basketball season my teammates and I were very close. We hung out almost every weekend and there was never a dull moment with those girls. During this year, the boy’s basketball went to the state championship and I was able to a part of that. The summer before my junior year, I was asked to be a part of the Madison County Youth Leadership Academy. This was such an amazing experience and it truly made me a better person. Also during my junior year, I started dating Connor Love and he has made such an impact on my

The first time we met, I didn’t realize that the seemingly meathead jock with the deep rumbling voice would teach me how to be me and swim in the oceans of life. In putting my trust in him, I gained an inveterate friend who has always been there to pick me up when I fell and knows exactly how to right my path. When we met, I was abashed by life and petrified to be me; he was self-assured, impeccable in every aspect of life. He has saved me more times than could possibly be counted; everyone should be so lucky as to have a friend like him.
