My mother told me a good friend
is like a mirror. I’m quieter and
more serious than most kids. That's
why I like reading books and I
study harder in class. My best friend Yuan Li is quiet too, so we enjoy studying together. I'm shy so it's not easy for me to make friends. But I think friends are like books—you don’t need a lot of them as long as they’re good.
It's not necessary to be the same.
My best friend Larry is quite
different from me. He is taller and
more outgoing than me. We both
like sports, but he plays tennis better,
so he always wins. However, Larry often helps to bring out the best in me. So I'm getting better at tennis. Larry is much less hard-working, though. I always get better grades than he does, so maybe I should help him more.
I don’t really care if my friends are the same as me or different. My favorite
saying is, “ A true friend reaches for your hand and touches your heart”. My
best friend Carol is really kind and very funny. In fact, she’s funnier than
anyone I know. I broke my arm last year but she made me laugh and feel
better. We can talk about and share everything. I know she cares about me
because she's always there to listen.
