Friendships are like the weather in many different ways. I think they are like the weather because, the weather can be nice and warm or it can be cold and horrific. I know I don’t like those times when my friendships are cold and horrific, because that means that there is tension building up which usually leads to a fight, a not so exciting time for people in the predicament. Andrew is one of my best friends and I know that there has only been a few times where we have had our differences. Whenever Andrew and I hang out we always have the best time, whether we are playing lacrosse or playing Call of Duty we never get sick of each other. I have a feeling that Andrew and I will be friends forever because we have grown such a strong bond over the years that seems like it would be almost impossible to break. Tony is another one of my pals that I could not see myself without. Whenever tony and I are together we are always in the happiest mood and it seems like we almost always have something to do. Over the course of this year I have really spent a lot of time with tony and I have grown an acquaintance that would usually take years to build. Tony and Andrew are the two best friends I could ask for and whenever I’m with them my whether is sunny and 80 degrees, not cloudy and cold.

  1. I love your weather similie! It makes sence and I like the last sentence the most out of your whole essay! It is absolutely great to end with a strong concluding sentence and that is what you did. Great work. One thing I suggest is capitallizing Tony's name in this sentence : 'Whenever tony and I are together we are always in the happiest mood and it seems like we almost always have something to do.' other than that one error, your essay is the bom-diggity. Keep it up, pardner.

  2. that paragraph sounded straight from the heart,harry! however, i'm not so clear on how a friendship can be cold and horrific.also, i would suggest that you write the first chunk as if it's about your relationship and not friendship in general.
