Friendship is something that can last for forever.It is a way of connecting people together. for example friendship helps different races, girls and boys to cooperate regardless of what the other has done . real friends are people who listen to your probelms instead of using it as a help to make fun of you. a good friend cheers you up when you feel uneasy. I have many friends who helpme and whenever we get into a quarrel , we become friends the next day.

Friends are great!
Actually..I've never really had a real bestfriend. I just try not to have any like, BEST friends just incase i get hurt while doing so. Those who were with me for years, are super!! We stick like superglue, although sometimes we fight, its very fast before one of us says sorry.
I cope with big upsets or little upsets by calming down, thinking of what had just happened and then going to my friend to apologise. Its not very easy to say sorry, but if we are really in the wrong, we should do it no matter what, as we wont feel good without doing it.
A good friend to me is well, staying by your side when you are down, trying to cheer you up, rather than running you down and always discouraging you. One who cares about you, helps you, one who can keep secrets for you and not tell anyone, one who supports you up when you fall. And of course, when we quarrel, its better that we could get back together as friends again.

friendship
When I was in primary 1, I didn't study in Singapore but in China in a school called Utahloy International School. There, I made two best friends and several other friends (or so-called friends).
grade 1.
In that level, I met my first best friend. His name was Alexander Ringrose (short form would be Alex Ringrose) an Australian. He was one of those kind of guys that had probably anti-girl spray all over himself and with crusty snot all over his nose and who drank yogurt for lunch leaving him with a white moustache.
Well, during recess,we would just walk around, find some girls to play pranks on and then running away from a bunch of mad girls laughing our head off at the same time. (Back then I was a total devil). At other times, we would be so bored lazy that we would pop into the school libary and doodle on the scrap paper and make them into paper airplanes to throw around. But of course, in friendship there is sure to be some ups and downs!
A very perfect example would be the time when I was first introduced to soccer. I would stroll into the soccer field to join a game or get my teeth knocked off. But then, Alex couldn't follow me because of his brittle bones. Then he would whine about it and then it will get real 'emo'. But being good friends, we were able to patch up the holes in our friendship and become good friends again.
BUT, just as we were becoming super good friends, I recieved a piece of very devastating news.
My best friend was going back to his home country. Back then, I felt like breaking down and crying till the end of the world. But, as the saying goes, you gotta move on in life! So I said my final goodbyes and moved on.
It didn't stop there though.
grade 3
I met my second best friend, and his name was Gabriel. Unlike Alex, he was from Hong Kong. And, he was a total maths genius - plump with stubby legs and quite weird - a soccer whiz. He also had a squeaky vioce but the best thing was that we took the same school bus! Then, we waged a mini war with my brother and his friend almost every day. But as people also say, your friends will influence you. True enough, he turned me into an angel! (except for my chinese heehee) He was like a grade 1 friend. Those who would stay with you through good and bad days.
But then, it was my turn to leave the school.
So here I am, in Singapore, studying in a government school. I conclude that you got to know how to pick your friends. Advice? Don't befriend people who always pick on you or alway try to harm you. Go for those friends who defend you from bullies no matter what and help you in your studies. And of course, if you quarrel with your best friend, don't unleash your anger straight at him - even better, reason out with him. Best still, be friends with those who are total angels! They will help you in your life and act as a big brother to you.
Hate to confess - I haven't met any friend like that yet.
So whatever you do, remember friendship is important!

Friendship = You and I
What are your experiences about friendship as you grow older?
Never really had a bestfriend in my life. It's hard to get one into my list. I always thought that the person who spent the most time with, always go recess with was my bestfriend. I was not entirely wrong though. I have a pyramid ranking of some sort. the top-most, Best friend. The middle, close friends. The last, friends. My world in p1 to p4 didn't have this. My heart was calm and and open field with flowers where everyone can relax. I did have a teeny problem in K2 though. There's this girl. You could say she's a prep. She bullies in the most horrendous way. Primary one, I became the bully. Kind of. I lost a good friend. Primary two. I met another one but we became stranger - normal friends like. I had a new close friend again. I think it was coconut or sammy and sha sha. (Not real names!!!) They sam and shasha moved out from school. shasha went to KL and sam went to canadian international school. Primary four. I had two close friends.
How do you cope with the little upsets or the big upsets?
I take a deep breath and try to calm down. My record of angryness was 12 hours. I most probably act like nothing happened sine saying sorry is a difficult thing for me. I love my friends and I can never be too far from them.
I sometimes cry and give them the silent treatment but I can never ever not say sorry to them. Never. A bit harsh but still, that's my own unique personality.
What is a good friend to you?
A good friend. One who understands and gives advice. One who doesn't make fun of you. One who cares for you. One who'll be there when you need them. One who you can spill your secret and problems, worries, stories, past without having to worry if they'll blackmail you. One who influences you to good and not bad things. And most of all, one who YOU understand and she/he can do all those to you without them worrying about anything.
Your best friend may be right beside you but you do not notice. One may want to be your friend but you do not notice. Your best friend may not be human. A pet or even a non-living thing can be your closest companion there is.
I'm still learning about true friendship so, for now, what I'm saying may not me right and may be very harsh to some.
One was wild and the other was quiet. Too quiet. We stuck togerther like glue. But the glue was not super.
I had a great friend whom I met after road-crossing duty in p5. Jolene. She was often misunderstood and we were almost polar opposites. ButI liked her and a bond almost
too strong to break was formed. Many tried to severe this bond without knowing it and Jolene became confused

and rebellious. Some guided her back and the bond strenghtened again. The bond was close to severed again.
I managed to keep her together with a new person included. Winona. A great friend. But they were a bit too oblivious of my feelings.
This year, A hurricane has arrived. Jolene hangs out with new friends. Everyone else too. I became alone but they didn't realise. Somehow, my resistance of letting go went on a max. Now, The ones whom I trust the most are: Lindsey, Taranee, Jamie and Jolene.

friendships,friend or foe?
As i grow older friends start becoming a part of my everyday life,we do all kinds of stuff together,but when we are older we start to quarrel often about little matters which we didnt care when we were young,but after the quarrel we are still buddies and mates forever.without friends u will have the worst life ever,having to play and do things alone.In the future,you need friends alot,they stand by you when you need them the most and they will always help you and go with you through the thick and thin of ur life.
friendship....
I THINK FRIENDS ARE VERY IMPORTANT.WHEN I CAME TO SINGAPORE THE YEAR BEFORE LAST YEAR, I WAS NOT ABLE TO SPEAK ENGLISH WELL AND DID NOT REALLY HAD FRIENDS.ACTUALLY I FELT VERY LONELY AND WANTED TO GO BACK TO KOREA.1YEAR JUST PASSED LIKE THAT.WHEN I WAS P5, I MET NATALIE, AND BECAME FRIEND WITH HER.NOW, I DO NOT FEEL LONELY AT ALL.
THERE'S ONE MORE REASON WHY I THINK FRIENDS ARE IMPORTANT.
I'M STILL CONTACTING WITH MY FRIENDS IN KOREA AND THEY STILL REMEMBERS ME EVEN THOSE WHEN I WAS FRIEND WITH,LONG TIME AGO,LIKE 6YRS AGO.....
THEY WERE SO HAPPY WHEN I CONTACTED THEM.I ALSO REALISED THAT EVEN THOUGH I DID NOT CONTACT THEM FOR LONG TIME, WE STILL COULD BE FRIEND IF WE ARE GOOD FRIENDS AND HAD LOTS OF BEAUTIFUL MEMORIES TOGETHER.

What are your experiences about friendship as you grow older?
When i was younger,i had gone to 2kindergarten.Reason is that i had move house.When i went to my new kindergarten, i was very afraid. I didn't talk the whole lesson and was almost about to cry.During our recess,my class pupil was super friendly!!! They were all like:Can i be your friend???.I was so shocked by what i said,i had actually said:I only friend girls. Then,after time pass,everyone had forgotten i had said that and i friend everyone.I can't believe i said that!As i grow older,i will start to be less sociable,which means,i only have a few best friends.Usually my partner.
How do you cope with the little upsets or the big upsets?
Usually, i will ignore the person that had made me upsets.If i am really upset,i might even shout at THAT person.I had never been angry for MORE than 1 day yet.I have this best friend named ___________ and she and I always quarrel! I don't know why,but we remain as best friends like since P2.She is super sarcastic and sometimes irritating.Sometime i blow up at her and she will be like,giving that i-don't-care look. So,_________ and I are still friends now.Little upsets or big upsets should NOT ruin your friendship. No matter how major/minor it is!
What is a good friend to you?
A good friend to me is someone who is always with you,for good or bad things and friend you for who you are.They will cheer you up when you are upset and always be there to give you a smile.Frankly, i don't understand why can't someone be your good friend if they are bad.I mean,if they don't influence you but you influence them instead??Friendship can NEVER be forgotten and thats why no one can seperate them no matter how hard they try.They will share everything with you.
Thats what i think friendship is.And if i was alittle harsh with my words.I apologise!

Friendship
Having no friend in your life is really hard to survive. Friends can help us when we are in trouble, or in a bad situation. I had had many friends throughout my life. They help when I need help and I help them when they need help. Friends can also help relieve your troubles when you are feeling stressed or unhappy. But I will sometimes quarrel with my friends. I will not know what to do when I am in that situation, but there will always be a way to get out of the situation. Don't let a small matter 'destroy' your friendship with your friends. The more sociable you are, the more friends you can make. Even our grandparents, teachers or even your pet can be your friend!
So CHERISH your friendship every second !
So CHERISH your friendship every second !
Friends....good,bad or just a sick joke?
Hi there,just too let you know that Iwill now apologise to everyone Ihave offended for making manfred cry,its my fault and I am not denying it so please forgive me.
From: Wesley Au
Friends..........why is it good? well for starters they can give you a shoulder to cry on when you need it and they can give you support through your darkest hours.However,those are the good friends and finding one is like looking for a gold nugget in a coal mine.Sure you may think that just by looking for that winning shine will get you a gold nugget,BUT that so called "gold" may be just a yellow stone that will eventually lose its shine and colour.I KNOW that i have found many yellow stones in my life here is the worst one.
Shawn. (former P5 friend) Category: Backstabber and blackmailer.
He was a confused boy,upset and lonely from being transferred to this school.I extended my hand of friendship and he took it........before twisting it and casting it away.I thought I have found a true friend and look what happened.I gave him my prize game account........he used it to blackmail me.I asked him,"Why Shawn,WHY??!" and he looked at me with those cold,nfeeling eyes and said,"Because I wanted to."Luckily he is no longer in this school.This person is utterly merciless,he will repeatedly bend you against your will.Like he did too mine....
What is a Good friend? Friendly? no. Rich? no. Understandable? YES!
a good friend does not even need to be friendly!As long as he is there to support you and to understand you,THAT IS ENOUGH!!! (Just like my enemy/friend circle with Ernest)
REAL friends are all around us. Its just that we have too rub aways the layer of dust on the gold piece too make it REALLY shine!So friends,what is now your enemy today could actually be your friend tomorrow!True friends can be anyone,your pet dog,your parents even your teacher!
But although there are friends all around us,we must remember that we live for OURSELVES not for our friends!So if you ever find yourself in the clutches of someonelike shawn remember this little snippet of information.It could help you someday

Friends Or No Friends?
What are your experiences about friendship as you grow older?
we all love to make friends when we are young.The more we have,the more merrier we are.Whether they are boy or girl,we are happy with whom we make friends with. but if the friends dislikes us,most likely we will cry. As we get older,we let our emotions takeover, we make friends with the same gender and feel shy to get close with the opposite gender.You will wonder why does it feels that why making friends with the same gender will still make you feel lonely.It is the fact that you still miss your old friends,whether they are male or female. We all should not be afraid, just make friends!but not any o' how.Choose carefully...the one who is willing to go all the way through with you.whether good or bad times.True friends are the key to your happiness!
How do you cope with the little upsets or the big upsets?
We all usually disagree with something and you or your friend will start bickering and comes to the situation where you and your friend's friendship is over.We start to feel the anger and may think "argh!he never listens to me!!!!" and later on you start to feel that you are at fault so you would feel heartbroken and want to patch up your friendship again.All you have to do is just apologise and say you should not have done that and you and your friends will forget this day and continue to be friends again!
What is a good friend to you?
A good friend is basically a good friend who wants to help you with your troubles,shares with you everything they can and goes through with you all the time.They forgive you for most of the things you have done to them and have quite alot of patience when they are with you.They calm you down when you are furious and defend you when you are quarreling with someone else.They stick with you like super glue during the good and bad times!!!=-)
