I have met many good people and very good people in my life. Today I would like to describe a person whom I could say that I am very happy to know. And this person is called Anjali. I have met Anjali in my first days of the engineering college. As being a COVID batch, we did not get to visit the college during our first year. As I was socially awkward and I do not know how to make friends, it was quite difficult for me and especially everyone was made friends online. But it was quite difficult for me and I did not had any friends. When I first visited the college offline, I rarely know anyone. I could say that Anjali was the first person I have ever met as we were travelling in the same bus and we instantly clicked. And even later got to know that we are both assigned to the same class. And I was very happy with that. So as I believe that I have made my friend. Anjali is to describe her personality, she is a very happy going person. Despite being a very good topper in her studies, she is always grounded to her and respects teachers and parents. The one thing which I could admire about her is how she mingles with me. I could say that she had played a very care over in changing my personality from a socially awkward to happily mingling with people. Not only that she has stood with me in my tough times and always supported me. I could say that I am very glad that I know her because she shaped my personalities and as well as thoughts. Not only that she has also taught me some great lessons and I could say that she is one of the few friends I would always remember and look up to. Despite being in two different cities now, I always messaged her and always try to keep in touch with her. And we always share our life details and we always stay close. I could say that I am very glad that I have met this person.
