Old Stories

Below was an old article that I had wrote for a forum of university course. Let's have a look...

What is a friend?

A friend is someone we can have fun with, share secrets or problems together, ask advice and many more. We need to treat our friends with receptiveness, humour, love and others to maintain the friendship, just like the way we treat our beloved family members. From my point of views, a friend is like one of my family members in my life. Friend is the one I can trust on beside than my parent. A true friend is willing to spend time to be my good listener and adviser whenever I need them to be by my side. A true friendship is precious and cannot be replacing by anyone or anytime if we lost it. Also, we require a long time and energy to build up a true and worth friendship with someone. I am sure everyone have a lots of friends in their life from everywhere, but can any of you classified which one is the true one, and which one is just a normal friend in your life?
In my life, I have two good friends where I knew them separately for around nine years. One which I met her during Form One Chinese class, whereas the other one I knew her during our co-curriculum activities. Earlier, we does not get closer easily as we met, and we even felt awkward to talk to each others. As time pass, we became like sisters who always get together whenever we can, because we were from different classes during school days. We share secrets and problems together, ask advice when we are facing difficulties, cry together when get bad results, smile happily when we get good news and etc.
For example, during the time we had trial examinations for SPM, one of my good friend was sad because she cannot concentrated to do revision due to stress which caused she did badly in the examinations. Thus, I spent time to listen her problems and tried to advice her. She cannot control her sad feeling after listened what I had said about, and cried out. During that time, I felt helpless when saw she is crying, all I can do just lent her my shoulder and cried together to release her tension.
Next, another good friend of mine is the one who always help me in the studies. I am a person who can easily give up when I am facing problems. During school days, she is the one who always advise and guide me when I cannot solve problems. Also, she willing to share all her notes and extra information she can get with me to help me cope with our studies. She is my good listener who always listens to me without any complain. I feel great and lucky to meet both of them in my life. To conclude, we must maintain our friendship with love and do not ever forget them although now we are staying at the different places to further our studies.
