Friends As Important As Treasure

by UTPL Unidad de Gestión de la Comunicación

Do you still remember your former friends? Whether you two have lost contact with each other while you know that you two still is familiar to each other? Why do we lose contact with each other? The thanksgiving day is around the corner, lets go back to the beautiful days of the past!

My best friend was Linda who was an elegant as well as outgoing girl. I still remember that we first knew each other when we had an English class with each other. She was not in the same class with me, but we talked with each other and felt very good. Her English was so good that I admired her a lot, so I decided to learn from her.

The second time when we met each other was in the English corner. It was the first time I went there. I felt shy because my English was so poor that I even did not dare to speak. Then she appeared. She told me a lot about spoken English and the ways to improve it. The most important one was that opened your mouth and made as many mistakes as possible, because every time when you made mistakes, you correct them and then you will improve yourself. Then I began to speak English with her. We talked with each other about our dreams, our habits, our families and so on happily. Since that time, we became very good friends and I regarded her as my bosom friend, because we have a common goal.

One time, we went to listen to a famous lecture which was very inspiring and encouraging. After the lecture, we asked the lecturer some questions when two boys went to the platform and listened to our questions. After that we knew each other, and we talked happily.

Later, Linda and I began to hold an English club to improve our English as well as make friends, what’s more, to help more people to improve their English. The two boys are our first two members. One time, we were talking with each other in English corner when we found one boy was watching far away and we asked him to join us passionately. At first, he was too shy to join us and did not speak English at all, but soon when we were familiar with each other, the situation began to change. On a thanksgiving day, we met as usual. Linda took out four scarves and gave us one each and said that this is a thanksgiving gift as well as a sign of our good friendship.

Now every time when I am depressed, I will take our sign out and see and then I will become passionate and continue to work hard. Thanks, my scarf! Thanks, my friends!
