The Best Friend of Mine

I have known my friend since primary school: that is for thirteen years. On the first day at school he sat next to me and immediately we became friends. We kept on sitting next to each other for the following nine years and nothing could separate us. We had the same hobbies and so we even met after school and we would spend part of our holidays together too. But then I was luckier than my friend and I passed the entrance exam to grammar school and it was then that we stopped seeing each other so often.

The best friend of mine is a very friendly and sincere person. He always tells me what he thinks of my problem and he doesn’t mind telling me unpleasant things. Sometimes he is quite moody, he gets upset on a minor problem but in a minute he calms down and is as cheerful as ever. He is also very generous: he would give everything he’s got just to help somebody. He’s reliable though not very punctual.
