I would like to talk about my close friend named Chong Men, who has played an important part in my life. I first met her when we were in secondary school. At that time, we were in the same class. And our teacher asked us to work together on a group assignment. Because of that project, we started talking and gradually became good friends. We have known each other for about four years. During that time, we have spent a lot of time studying together, chatting after school, and helping each other with homework. Even though we sometimes have different opinions. We still understand and support each other. She has played an important role in my life because she always encourages me when I feel stressed about school or exams. For example, when I felt nervous before an important test, she helped me review the lessons and gave me a lot of motivation. Thanks to her support, I felt more confident. Say you’re a kind and supportive friend. And I feel very lucky to have her in my life.
