The Similarities And Differences Between Ellen Goodman And Patricia O Brien
We all have different friends that we communicate to. Different personalities that accommodate our daily lives. We chose which friends to spend time with or just have someone to talk to, but they still have a sort of way of communicating towards us. Our facial and body expressions show how we respond to their approach. We start to become friends, but what kind of friends are we really? Are we just former friends, hero friends, or just family friends? Well, we all have different social groups we like to spend time with. For example, in the article, from Ellen Goodman and Patricia O’Brien, they stated, “Every friendship is as different as the people involved…” By their comment no matter the type of friends we chose to spend time with or

just kick it back on the couch. We all have someone to talk to, it does not matter if they have a bad perspective. What counts is that we get along with someone, and share the same interests as us. We all have that friend that you love to hate, the work friend and the best friend, The friend that we love to hate, we all have one of those. We have that friend that we get along with very well, but there are times where you just want to strangle them. But why are we still with them, the reason is that a friendship like this is a friendship that will last longer. Reason being is because we know them perfectly well, and we can take anything that comes out of their mind, it does not matter is it is the stupidest comment or the rudest comment. We still love them for being who they are. Author Marion Winik expresses in her article,” They say stupid things. They butt in, the boss you around, the embarrass you in public.” We can be in the store and they can all the sudden start screaming, singing loud, or including dancing around. They start acting like little children, and you are extremely embarrassed. We are deeply thinking if you can commit murder without anyone noticing they are gone because you are tired of them embarrassing you in public. We still love them, but we just want to hate them, but we cannot. Abel Chaidez, my best friend, he is a pain in the back. No matter where we are he will find a way to make a fool or himself, which makes me look like a fool. On September of 2017, we both went to the movies on Friday night. We went to go watch a moving that was premiering that night, we arrived, and sat down. Once the movie started we were probably 15 minutes in, he started to laugh so loud. I was so embarrassed, I just wanted to kill him then and there. No matter what he does I still love him for being himself, there is nothing in the world that can change the way I see him. We see friends like this as a friendship that will last longer than a normal friendship. A friend that embarrasses you publicly is a friend you know you will last with forever. A friend that no matter how you are feeling you can depend on them. They will not give you hesitation when you ask them for a favor. Work friends are friends we make at work.
They are friends we make at work because we either do not have anyone to talk to or they are close to our age and we feel more comfortable talking to them. They are friends that we feel like we need to have just in case we get into trouble and you can somewhat count on their friendship or loyalty they have towards us. Or simply they are just a nice person, that when you started working there. They were the only person that talked to you first or they helped you around on your first days of work. I have a work friend, when I at first started working at the Migrant Headstart, in Burley. I started out as a sub. I did not go to any pieces of training when they hired me when I got called in for the first time they just put me in the classroom that needed the extra help. When I first walked in, I felt very uncomfortable, because I was nervous if I did anything out of the ordinary or if I mess up the lesson plan. I also did not know to interact with the children. Thankfully I had an old high school friend, Cecilia Ceja, who was in the same room. She taught me what I needed to know, the rules in the class, and what I was expected to do. Ever since that day I will go to her and ask her anything that I had in doubt. Work friends help us feel more relaxed at work because we can talk to someone. They make us feel welcomed into the company and they are supportive when you are the new
one. Best friends have their ups and downs, we challenge each other. We laugh, create, and become stronger. Best friends are there to help you become a better person. They show that they are supportive in every way. We start to rely on them throughout the years of our friendship. We can be best friends since eighth grade or even kindergarten. Some friendships can last up to the day you both die or one of you. Best friends are there to give you a hand and maybe even a shoulder to cry on. My best friend, Abel Chaidez, is a friend you can have faith in. In high school, we were and still are good friends. One Monday morning in April 2015, my grandmother who I was really attached to, had passed away. Abel was giving me his condolences. He told me that my grandmother was in a better place and that she would always be with me no matter where I am at. The first few weeks, he would always walk me to class to make sure I arrived at my classes with no tears in my eyes. The reason was that I was crying all the time, and I just did not want to be at school. He was a really and still is a very supportive friend. He was very kind to me, no matter the comments people would say about us. That never got to him, to stop hanging out with me and talking to me. Best friends are to be supportive, they do not need to judge you. It does not matter if you're being stupid, having mood swings, or even being crybabies. They were meant to be there and support us in our stupidity.
In conclusion, we are the only ones who can decide who we want to spend time with or who not to talk to. We take advice from others on who to frequent, at the end we are the ones who will make a wrong decision in life. We make the decisions in the end, but every friendship we create along the way is a friend whom we create new memories with. Those memorable memories will follow us throughout our lives.
