I believe that friends are one of the themes of the book since there were many places throughout the book, where I noticed how play such a huge role in our lives, and how emotionally attached we are to them. For example at the beginning of this book, one can easily conclude and Rowdy, Juniors best friend, has a great impact on Junior’s, the main character, life. This is clearly evidenced on page 17 when Junior says “ It’s like he (Rowdy) is a family member, an extra brother and son”, and “He…

In the book Of Mice and Men by John Steinbeck it proves that friends will really do anything to protect each other. Throughout the story the two main characters Lennie and George face a agglomeration of confrontations and prove that they will do whatever they can do to protect each other. One example of this is “I’ll give him the work tickets, but you ain’t gonna say a word. You jus’ stand there and don’t say nothing”(Steinbeck 6). This example means that all George wants Lennie to do is…

end. It’s not easy for me to admit it, but I have to. A relationship between one of my best friends from my childhood is, at least as of right now, over. It’s strange really, how relationships come and go. How some seem to repel shortly after they are no longer absolutely needed, while others just stick. This is a story that is hard to put into words, because it makes no sense. How can someone be your friend from second grade until the first year of college, and then end? How is it possible?…

It’s freshman year, I’m having lunch with my best friend Stephanie and some girl who use to be her best friend. Cool right? Stephanie and I went to go get some Jamba Juice inside the cafeteria, Britney caught up to us about a minute later. On our way back to our usual lunch spot I see a very attractive guy. Nice eyes, nice smile, and pretty tall. So I told Stephanie “Hey, that guy is super cute.” She replied “Yea, he’s alright.” We have totally different taste in guys. Britney over heard on…

there is one phrase that is difficult to define, it would be what a best friend is. It can vary from person to person, but for many, a best friend is a special person in your life. They listen to what you’re compelled say when no one else will. When you feel melancholy, they will do their best to ensure that a smile will find its way back to your face. However, my favorite definition by far is that finding your best friend is comparable to falling in love. Around the age of four, I was deposited…

helped me realize that if you take the initiative and give it your all, and along with some help from a friend, you can in fact overcome your fears no matter how daunting or difficult the task may seem. When I was little I loved to play outside with my friends, as many kids do. We would usually play on a big playground that my grandpa had built for me and my siblings near my house. My friends and I enjoyed it very much because we could play on it whenever we wanted and not have to have our…
