Friendship is what makes the world go round. Without friendship, life would be plain, lonely, and boring. Friends are people you can talk to when you have no one that will listen, they are a shoulder you can cry on when you’re all alone. Friends can make you smile when you’re sad and stick up for you when you need them most. There are many different types of friends and it's hard to decide who’s a friend and who isn’t. Sometimes, people think they have new friends, but honestly they don’t. Like true love, you can’t make a friend in a couple minutes. Even if you think you have, that so called “friend” can stab you in the back in a matter of seconds.…
Over the years that I’ve been at Burdick, I’ve gained many great friends, but I also lost a few. Only a few selective of them, I tell my secrets to. For example, Kaiden, Coreena, Dakota, Elysium, Joelle, Jose, and Isaiah. They’re the greatest friends anyone could ask for and have. They’re loyal, truthful, understanding, funny, witty, sarcastic, and just plain awesome. I have them to thank for making ordinary moments, extraordinary. They’re always there when I want to hang out or vent out my feelings. They put in that extra effort to understand me for who I am, not caring the slightest bit about my flaws and imperfections. And if I ever need to shed some tears, I know that at least one of them will be there to comfort me. There are times where…
My best friend Sedona Love taught me something this year, something I would never have had seen with my own two eyes until she showed me. She taught me that when I am having trouble at home or life isn’t treating me so well, that she will always be there to listen and give their best input. She may sometimes be sarcastic, silly, goofy, mean, crazy, sometimes plain out embarrassing, and even care too much, but in the long run she is always going to be there to listen and not talk, hear without judging, and be there with nothing in return. In class sometimes she can be pretty critical but I know that’s just how our relationship works. I may get called silly, stupid, a dumb blonde, an idiot, but when I need my best friend the most I know that she will be there for me. When I needed a shoulder to cry on or when I needed a hug the most she was always there for me, when I felt there was no sense in life she showed me there was way more to life than I thought. A couple of weeks ago I went into severe anaphylactic shock and she was right there, she brought me my backpack and the things I needed most at the time. She stood up for me when my so called friends were talking behind my back not really knowing what was going on. She was also the only one who cared enough to call me and see how I was doing, she put everything aside just so she could make sure that I was okay. Not…
Friendship can mean so much to a person. You always hear about people saying that their soul mate is their boyfriend or husband but in some cases you hear people say that a girl friend is their soul mate and someone they tell everything to and share all life’s big moments with. In my case I do have that kind of friendship with my best friend Shelby Fullerton.…
Most people have had many friends in their lifetime. There are some that left my life on good terms for reasons that we could not prevent, such as moving or changing schools. On the other hand, there are others that walked out in anger for dumb reasons that should have been resolved. Regardless, there are still have friends that have been in my life for years; conflicts were resolved peacefully and compromises were made. Out of my whole group of friends, Karen is the closest to me. We met in middle school and have been friends ever since. Karen Sanchez has been my best friend for years because we have many similar interests, we have compatible personalities, and she is my one trusted confidant.…

In conclusion, she is the portrayal of a true friend. A true friend will always stick by your side no matter what the outcome will be. A true friend will always try to make you laugh when you need that laugh the most. A true friend will always sit and sip coffee with you at your local Starbucks just because you want somebody to talk too. A true friend will never question your style choice. That is a true friend and her name is…
As a child I had two best friends who meant the world to me and who I felt I can tell anything too. These girls we’re both my next-door neighbors who I have known now for thirteen years. As a child, you make a variety of friends and every new friend you make you can call your best friend because there is innocence and excitement there when having someone new come into your life. Part of growing up is realizing who your true friends are. Who your life-long friends will be and eventually never relate to those temporary friends you made again.…
I have the greatest group of friends or I should say two really good girl friends. Over the years my circle has gotten smaller, but that’s ok. I have learned it is not about how many friends I have, but the quality of the people that I spend my time with. In fact the Mayo Clinic states, “Quality counts more than quantity. While it's good to cultivate a diverse network of friends and acquaintances, you also want to nurture a few truly close friends who will be there for you through thick and thin”. My friends have walked with me through the best and the worst times of my life. We have seen each other through marriages, births and even deaths. This…
A true friendship that stands the test of trials and time is rare. Friends may come and go, but to have a lifelong, close personal friendship is truly a great blessing.…
Friendship is a wonderful term describing love, care, and faithfulness. Nevertheless, friends come in various kinds. Some carry good intentions who describe real friends while others hold bad intentions who describe friends of interests. Only tough life experiences will help you distinguish between your real friends and those fake ones.…
“A friend is one that knows you as you are, understand where you have been, accepts what have become, and still, gently allows you to grow”- William Shakespeare. This quote reminds me of my two best friends Sendra and Susan. As a person, I hardly mix with people, maybe because I am very picky. However, when I first met them, something compelled me towards them. Even today I don’t know that reason but I’m happy I choose them as my friends. Even though they are my best friends, they are two different personalities. My two best friends have differences in their physical attribute, interests, and career choice.…
She used to be a stubborn one and never listen to others. She always think that she is the perfect one and she was right. She would never listen to the advice. She is so herself.

People were wondering how i could stand her behavior and still so good to her. What did she meant to me? Friend. I treat her as my best friend, because I knew that her attitude is different from her personalities. I knew that She has everything exept love.…
My friend Lianna is the most amazing friend anybody could ask for. We’ve been through so much together, we are destined to be sisters. We met on the first day of high school in English class, we were paired up to work on a project and then we introduced ourselves to each other and then we found out that we had a lot in common. Both of us were terrified of the massive size of the high school. She had the locker right next to mine. I told her I didn’t know anybody in our class and she said “You do now”. We’ve been friends ever since. Most boys think that Lianna is not very pretty and they make fun of her just because she’s Asian. She has long black hair, cascading over her shoulders. She laughs about everything and when she does, you see about a hundred white teeth- so bright, you almost need sunglasses. When she laughs, her eyes grow wide, casting a black shadow across the room. Lianna likes to dress kind of skater-ish, in sweatpants, sweatshirts, and bracelets. But, she’s very unpredictable, too. Sometimes she’ll wear a fancy dress or skinny jeans. She must have 4 closets full of clothes, because she barely wears the same outfit twice. Lianna is the most lively animated character I’ve ever known. She’s always rushing around trying to get the latest scoop on everyone. It’s like she’s in the FBI. Right before she shares important news, Lianna tosses back her dark black luscious hair, takes a deep breath, and quickly looks side to side making sure the coast is clear. She never says anything mean about people, she just wants to get the latest scoop and know what’s going on. She always supports me in everything I want to do. Not many girls in our group of friends play sports, but when I told Lianna I wanted to go out for basketball, she cheered me on and she said “Go for it”. Even though I didn’t make the team she was always my biggest fan during tryouts. Not only is lianna a tremendous supporter, she also trusts me to give her my…
