An Important Person to Me
I met Amanda during my first day of my high school, and she caught my attention. She has twinkling eyes and her long black hair lies back in curls from her delicate ears. An idea came out from my brain that: I want to make friend with her. And then, naturally, we became best friends. In the rest of our high school life, we spent a long time accompanying with each other and shared our experience, our memories, and our lives no matter it was good or not.

I felt hopeless and even could not find my value in the world. I tried to suicide but were saved by my dad. When Amanda heard about it, she smiled and told me that, “To overcome the difficulties, there are only four worlds: FACE, ACCEPT, SOLVE, OUT DOWN.

We complained about how heavy a box of water is and argued that should we pour the oil first or the water when we cook. In addition, to abandon each other’s smelly socks is one of our important interests. Every day when I got up, I could see Amanda stirring a dish in the kitchen. Under the warm light, her face was showing slightly behind the smoke. Sometimes she poured sauce into the dish and sometimes wiped the sweat. In a few minutes, the breakfast was ready. I always enjoyed the food which Amanda cooked. In the last day we lived together, we climbed to the top of a mountain which near our house and shouted: “Amanda and Sebrina are best friends forever.” We did everything best friends have to do in this holiday because we knew, after this holiday, we would go on to different ways and say goodbye. It is hard to say goodbye so I did not go to the airport to send her to Australia. I gave an album and a letter to her which includes everything I wanted to talk her. And the album symbolizes our own

    Throughout all of my years in school, I have struggled to keep friends or simply find a suitable friend group for myself. This came to my attention in recent years when I met a girl that I knew would change my life. Grace Puffer and I had been acquainted with each other for most of our lives, a normal occurrence in a small town, but it wasn't until our choir director sat us next to one another in the front row of our ensemble that I really got to know her.
