My Friend

I am a very sociable person, so I’ve got a lot of friends. We have common interests and we usually spend our spare time together: play volleyball, go to the discos, to the cinema or to the park. But besides I have my best friend, whom I trust, who gives me a hand of help when I need it, and who is proud of my success.

My friend’s name is Alex. We are classmates. He is tall, athletic, with short dark hair and brown eyes. My friend is a very interesting person. He reads a lot and always has an opinion of his own about anything.

Alex isn’t very fond of school and studying, but he is very keen on games. He is fond of football and tennis, but volleyball is his favourite sport. He wants to become a professional player. That’s why he spends a lot of time practicing and trying to improve his game.

Alex is a very reliable person. I can discuss with him everything that worries me. Alex takes things easier than I do and it let me see the other side of the situation.

In fact we have very much in common: similar goals in life, interests and problems. Of course we can have different opinions about things, we often argue but never quarrel.

I appreciate our friendship. I hope we’ll keep our friendship for life.
