It was at a birthday party. My best friend, Alexei, acquainted me with his best friend. I remember that evening distinctly. He was very manly and chivalrous. He had kind, deep, hazel eyes, so at first I looked at them. His lips were well defined. Then I noticed how he was dressed. I remember that he was wearing a dark sweater, jeans and black shoes. He looked very neat. I fell in love at first sight.
I will never forget that first feeling. We became friends. After two months of communication, we began to meet. I learned him in different sides.

It was my first day in Heidelberg.Fortunately the weather was fine,it was not very hot and it was not very cold.I did not know what I should do,where I can go and the main problem was that I didn't know the bus number to go to the University.Fortunately for me,we stayed in the same hotel.We missed the first day in University.She decided to show me Heidelberg.It was a very fascinating tour.She showed me places with a tasty,traditional food,a bus schedule,a swimming pool,a souvenir shop and etc.On the second day I know almost all about this gorgeous city...
Now Arite is my pen-friend.And I always very glad when I get from her new letter.Arite became me friend just a month.And I hope that we'll meet sometime in the future.

My best friend

In our life we meet other people, but they are different. When I was study at the school I met the main person in my life. This person is my best friend Shahlo. She is from in Uzbekistan. When we meet the weather was good and sun was shine. I am remembering she has are: short hair, grey eyes, small nose and thin lips. She was thin. But we don’t at once a best friend, because she doesn’t understand a Russian language. But with time she understands me and we was a best friend. She is a good person. She is one year older than me. WE spent all time together. We are: playing, walking, and talking. In school we seats together at one table. We are doing all together. She is helpful and she always already help me with my problem.

About my teacher

Every day you meet many people. They are so different and everyone has remarkable features. But not every person can touch your life and change something in it. in my life, I have met person, who helped me to understand, what I want from my life. It is my teacher of English. Her name is Natalya Antonovna Varentcova. She is a very good woman and qualified teacher. I met her when I was in the third class. Unfortunately, I didn't remember what she was wearing, but I remembered her charming smile and kind hazel eyes. She thought us not only English, but how to become a good person. She awakened in me love to languages, because her lessons were very interesting. If we weren't ready for the lesson, we were really ashamed. Now, she has been still working in the same school and I always glad to see her. We are really good friends. It is hard to forget her, because she put her whole soul and love into us and this love will be enough to the end of my life.

An important person in my life

Many people believe that the friendship between a boy and a girl does not happened.I would say that it is not.

Familiarity with Sasha is very interesting.Sasha moved into our house many years ago. He was very fond of animals.At home he had a dog, hamster and fish. Sasha touchingly looked after hamster. He often go out with him.Older boys hurt Sasha for his love to hamster. From this suffering poor animal. One day, becoming a eye-witness to such a situation, I prepositional Sasha hide until the hooligan do not go away.He agreed. Sitting in the entrance we had an interesting conversation.
After that incident I have not seen him for a long time.But we met again, only after six years in the sports section. We became friends.

An important person in my life

I met many interesting people. One of them is Christina. The first time I met her in the first of September. In that day it was warm and sunny. I noticed her when we were in the audience. She was a nice girl, not tall, with a pleasant voice and a charming smile. Oh, that I liked most of all, her hair was neatly packed, and shoes were clean. We talked about the university and what a couple should have been the next day. I remember that she wore a dark jacket with a teddy bear, black trousers and ballet flats. The first impression of her was positive, and remains the same now! I do not know why, but it was the moment when I realized that I can befriend with Christina!

Friend is an important person in my life

I have a lot of friends and I spend almost all my time with them. But there is only one person who knows and understands me best of all. This only person I can call my best friend. Her name is Anna. She is one year older than me. We have known each other since I was five and she was six. Our first meeting started with a quarrel for a doll. And exactly at that moment we understood that there is something much more important than a doll. It was our friendship. We have a lot in common. As small kids, we spent all the time together playing, walking, and talking. And now when we are teenagers we have less time to spend together because we study in different places. She is a student at a technical school and she studies to become a secretary. We try to phone each other and to share our news every spare minute.

  Anna is very pretty. She is slim and not very tall. She has blond long wavy hair and blue eyes. She likes trendy clothes and she wears a lot of jewelry.

    I miss Ann when we don’t see each other for a long time. Without her I would feel lonely and uncomfortable .Our friendship helps me to feel strong and sure of myself.
