My friend
To begin with, a man can have different friends. The English say that man’s best friend is his dog. Sometimes we say that books are our best friends. I think I am not a person who makes friends too quickly or too easily. I agree that the old friend is better than the two new ones. I am loyal to the friends I make and I expect the same loyalty in turn. I’d like to stress that a real friend is not only a playfellow or a helpmate. As the proverb puts it, a friend in need is a friend indeed. To my mind, a friend is a person dear to you, whom you trust and respect. I am lucky to have got such a friend as Helen. I made friends with her in the kindergarten and our friendship has been lasting since. |
At first I would like to tell you a few words about Helen’s appearance. She is a very good-looking girl, with beautiful blond hair and bright wide-opened hazel eyes. You need just to have a look at her to understand that she is a kind, sincere and open-hearted girl. She is lively, amusing and always interesting. She is always the centre of attention, but she is well-balanced and doesn’t let it go to her head. If she promises something, she always keeps her word. I am sure she will never let me down. |
We have many common interests. We both like reading books, going to the theatre, playing tennis. We both dream to become musicians. Moreover, our tastes do not differ, in fact, they are the same. Lena often helps me with my English as she did better than me at school. |
Sometimes she is too quick to get angry and too slow to cool down. When she loses her temper, it is better to keep away from her. In fact, any person has certain drawbacks, and neither she nor I are the exceptions from this general rule. But we do our best not to permit them to interfere with our friendship which I hope will last forever. |
