My best friend

My best friend I have a lot of friends, but my best friend is Alina. I have known her for a long time since our first school years. Alina left school two years ago and now she is a student of Tavrida National University. She is a future economist. Alina is a pretty girl of eighteen. She is tall and slim. Her long black hair is straight. Her close-set hazel eyes have long eyelashes and straight eyebrows. She has a charming smile. Alina is the kind of person who always does what she thinks is right. She is very open and sensible girl. She always ready to help everybody who needs. What I like most of all is her good sense of humor. She likes to dance and listen to music. I am very happy to have such a good friend as Alina.

My Best Friend.

My best friend.

We met for the first time in summer camp for English learners. It was arranged by our school. We lived in one room, we were neighbours. It was the best time in my life.

Now, I want to describe you my best friend. Her name is Yana and she is 18. She is very pretty. Her hear is straight and red. She wears her hair loose and fringe, she suites her. Her face is pale, oval. Yana’s eyes are green. She has a charming smile.

As for me her character is perfect. She is sensible and competitive; she works really hard every day. Also, she is rational and self-confident; it helps her to control my impulsive character and gives me good advices. In spite of her practical side, she is tender, emotional and thoughtful. Sometimes, Yana tends to be critical and stubborn, because she wants to be good specialist in journalism.

She has plenty of hobbies. Reading, writing a novel, I am sure it will be successful. Her life is full of interests and she makes my life interesting.  I love her and I am very grateful to her.

My best best friend!!!

I am going to describe my best friend Ani. To tell the truth, I don`t remember when I met her. I suppose, I was about 10 years old. We attended a swimming club together. Ani is a little bit older than me, she is 22. However I`ve never felt this difference.
My best friend is very pretty and she is always well-dressed. Usually she wears casual clothes but sometimes she prefers dresses and skirts. Ani is rather short as her height is about 155 cm. She comes from Armenia that`s why her complexion is dark and her hair is black. Usually Ani wears her shoulder-length hair in a ponytail. But I should say that it suits her much better when she wears her hair loose. Ani has quite weak eyesight that`s why sometimes she has to wear glasses.
As for her character, she is extremely kind. I have never met such people before. She never says any bad thing about other people behind their backs. She is very cheerful and welcoming. When I come to her house I always feel like at home and she is ready to receive me at any time. What was very surprising for me is that the last time I visited her she told I should have come with my mom. I`m sure, it was not told to express her politeness but she really wanted to see her. Ani is so sincere that when I talk to her I want to become much better than I am, as I know I have a lot of drawbacks in comparison with her.
However there is one thing which is a little bit annoying for me. Ani tends to complain about her problems too often. Sometimes I come to her in a good mood and leave worrying about different insignificant things.
As for her interests, they are varied. To start with, she still attends the swimming club. She even took part in Paralympics where she won a bronze medal. However sport is not the only thing she is interested in. She also likes going to performances and ballets. Ani visited plenty of countries from which she brought different knick-knacks which she collects.
All things considered, Ani is a really good friend and I hope now you understand why I call her my best friend!

Dash - the one and the only!

I've known her since I remember myself. We were always together playing different games, exploring around the house, making useless attempts to operate a doll. Darya Nesterova, 17 years old, and I were and are still the best childhood amigos.
Dasha is a very pretty girl, who always wears brand-new clothes and changes into a casual vest or pyjamas when she is at home. She has never been overweight a bit, always keeping fit and making guys stare and feel drawn to her shapely legs. She's got shoulder-blades-length wavy brown hair and usually wears it loose. Her fair complexion mixes up with her perfectly oval face. She possesses big hazel eyes and a turned up tiny nose.
There's a unique connection between us - a special language of souls we share. I'm so glad I found her long ago and hope we'll stay friends for good. Even though we've been acquainted for 16 years, I haven't completely analysed her personality. This makes our relationships interesting and adventurous.
What I like most about Dash is that she's always cheerful and positive, no matter how bad things are. She's always ready to support you in difficult situations, which makes her very considerate. She is extremely reliable, so you can be sure that your secrets and mysteries won't be revealed the next day. As for her best feature, she is very uncompromising person and does her job demandingly but with passion. Moreover, being sensible and demanding doesn't prevent her from being tender when communicating with close people. Dash in candid and determined enough to say what she thinks face to face.
Besides the enlisted characteristics, she shows a tendency of being a little bit lazy at times. She's got a potential to make her dreams happen, but doesn't use it often. As for me, this is her worst drawback.

P.S. I'm so sorry, my Internet connection is so poor so I can't post the photo right now. I'll do it later )

My Best Friend

My best friend's name is Daria and she is 17.

          I’ve known Dasha since my first day at school, when we were only six. I can remember her smiling face as the teacher, Elena Anatolievna, asked me to share the same desk with her.

          Dasha is a very pretty girl. She is tall and slim. She often wears her long dark hair in a pony-tail. She has got a round face with beautiful light-blue eyes and a straight nose.

        Dasha prefers comfortable clothes and can often be seen wearing a jumper, a pair of jeans and trainers.

          Dasha is a kind person who will listen to your problems and try to help you. She always tries to understand me and my feelings. Dasha knows that she can rely on me too. Also, I respect my friend for her modesty and strong will.

   What I don’t like about Dasha is her obstinacy.

       Dasha is a student of Crimean University for Humanities. Like me, she wants to be a teacher in the future.

     Daria is quite active and enjoys outdoor activities. One of her favourite hobbies is playing tennis. Also, she likes going to the cinema and is especially fond of adventure films.

            I have shared much good time with Dasha. She is one of my best and most trusted friends.

I feel fortunate to have met her!
