Friends
My Friends mean the world to me. Without them, I would be nothing. If I didn't have my friends I would have nothing to live for. Its because of them I am still here. I love them all for different reasons, some more then others but that's my issues. I would do anything for them. If they need something I get it done for them. And I know that they would do the same things for me. I most likely wont be connected to everyone in the next few years, but I know ill have some of them. Unfortunately, over some conflicts in the 8th grade, I don't have many friends from my previous school but I have 2 or 3. So coming to EWSIS has changed a lot, No one knew me, so I was able to start over and I met so many great people.
I know I talk about my friends a lot but I don't think I ever will stop. I want people to know how I feel and if telling them about my friends is the way then so be it. But I want to show people that even when things are bad, if you have good friends then there are no problems. When I'm sad I turn to them for help and they help me as much as they can. They way I meet most of my buddies is I stand out from the rest of the crowd.
Standing out has always been a common thing for me. I don't like to fit in with other people, I'm my own person and I don't need to be told what to say, wear or do. The only people I care about what they think of me are my closest friends. When I say stand out, I mean I try to look as abnormal as possible. Mainly not matching and wearing abstract clothes. I have never really fit in with too many people. In all of my schools so far I have had my own little group or friends and that was basically it. Just them, if someone says I look stupid for wearing something then they can keep that opinions in their own minds, it wont bother me at all. Ive dyed my hair all different colors, I've worn weird jewelry, worn weird stuff but my friends don't care. And if they did care, I would think about what they said, hen do what I think is right for me from there. Appearance is nothing to me, its who you are on the inside. That's it for me.
I'm not a normal person. Being normal has never been in my mind. I wear dark clothes with birth colors, I never match, I wear a lot of jewelry. I wear spikes and other random this I come across. I wear a pink studded belt and a white sweater. None of my friends care what I look like, they just care who I am on the inside. I have a few close friends and these are them.
I have a large social circle. But I have a few close friends. Whenever I can, I spend as much time with them as possible. Usually we spend our after school hours in the Queens Botanical Gardens. We are always together, at lunch in classes we have together. Its great for us.
One of them is Ashlie. She has been there for me whenever I need help with anything. If there is a problem with someone or someone is talking about us. We help each other with everything.
Another one is Jordan. He has my back with everything. Him, Ashlie and myself always take the train home together, there we talk about problems, or fun things or whatnot.
Then there's Izzy. She is like my little sister I never had or wanted. She is fun to hang out with, she is a bit insane and has her little mean streak but shes caring and she accepts everyone for who they are.
Mathew's turn. He is over 6 feet tall and over 200 pounds but he is one of the nicest people you will ever meet, hes the genital giant. He feels no pain and can hold a lot of weight, so he is our punching bag and stunt double. When i get pumped on sugar, i fun around like a mad man and do stupid things, and he is there laughing at me and joining in. I run up his back then jump off, vault over him and any other weird stuff you can think of.
And then, there was Cha. He is our buddy, somewhat violent but its fine. Hes cool, he has cool hair and hes very active. He fits in with us very well. Now our newbie, Vincent. He seems like a duplicate of me. He is also insane and has the same taste in music as I do. I hang out with them almost everyday after school.
Then there are others who mean a lot to me but i don't see them as often.
Arsie. He is a kid who looks like hes into classical music and drinks cups of tea but hes a full blown metal head. Unrealistic but true. Dickson and Andi. They are my brothers. When ever we need something done, we help each other do it. If it comes to relationship problems were there for each other. These 8 people are like my other family. They are the people I care the most about .Then there are others but these are the not in this school.
This animal was really cool. We had a lot of fun with the squirrel, that was the most interesting thing that happened to me that day and probably with week. It was fun too see how unafraid the animal was, and how it would eat out of our hands and walk on Mathew's back. We never did see the squirrel again. That is life. But if you have good friends then life dose not seem so bad. I love all my friends and would do just about anything for them. And I know they would do the same for me. I know we will be friends for a long time, no doubt about that.

Friends Are Important
I liked your message, "Friends" because it is really important to have friends. Without friends what would you do? You would be really lonely and have no one to talk to. Friends are there to help you all the way and they are there to help you with your problems and situations. Friends are there to help you when you need help and they will always have your back no matter what happens and what the situation is. These friends are called true friends.
One sentence you wrote that stands out for me is "My Friends mean the world to me. Without them, I would be nothing. If I didn't have my friends I would have nothing to live for.I would do anything for them." I think this is really important because I think the same as well. Without my friends I have no reason to live for. If you have no friends there would be no one there for you so what is the point and people say they don't need friends, but deep down we all know everyone needs friends to watch out for there back and everything. I would do anything for my friends too. If they need help I will help them and I will always cover up for my friends if they need anything and I will always have there backs as well. That is what friends are for. Friends are there for you forever and it can never be broken if you have a really strong friendship.
Another sentence that I enjoyed was "Dickson and Andi. They are my brothers. When ever we need something done, we help each other do it. If it comes to relationship problems were there for each other. These 8 people are like my other family." This stood out for me because Greyson is my brother too. We always help each other with our problems and with relationship problems as well. He is like family to me and I am always there for him and Dickson as well. We are like the 3 muskateers, we are always together and we are always there for each other if one needs the other. Family is an important thing and you cant just leave them hanging or something. Family is someone that you really need to care about.
Your story reminds me of something that happened to me. One time I was in big trouble and I was going to be in a fight and like it was suppose to be a 1vs1 fight, but then the other people had more people and I know I couldnt take all of them on and I called my friends Dickson and others as well and they came as soon as I called them, and they helped me fight these people that were going to jump me for no reason. Im so happy I have friends like them because they were always there for me when I needed them. If i didnt have friends like them I would have gotten jumped and hurt really badly and I wouldnt know if I was going to be here right nows. Im so happy I have friends and I will always be there for them like they are always there for me.
Thanks for writing. I look foward to seeing what you write next because this one that you wrote is especially important because it is about friends. I want to see what you have to write next because you wrote something really important like this one and I want to see what other important things you have to write next. Friends are really important and you cant live without them.
Friends
I loved your message, "Friends", because its true. I mean who can't live without friends, they are essential in life and are needed no matter what. Having is a very special way of showing that you are capable of being social and that being yourself can attract people to friendship.
One paragraph you wrote that stands out for me is:
"I know I talk about my friends a lot but I don't think I ever will stop. I want people to know how I feel and if telling them about my friends is the way then so be it. But I want to show people that even when things are bad, if you have good friends then there are no problems. When I'm sad I turn to them for help and they help me as much as they can. They way I meet most of my buddies is I stand out from the rest of the crowd." This stood out for me because expressing yourself about people who you are really close to is very understandable. I mean what better choice to write about something than to write about your friends.
Another piece of your writing that i liked was:
"My Friends mean the world to me. Without them, I would be nothing. If I didn't have my friends I would have nothing to live for. Its because of them I am still here. I love them all for different reasons, some more then others but that's my issues. I would do anything for them. If they need something I get it done for them. And I know that they would do the same things for me. I most likely wont be connected to everyone in the next few years, but I know ill have some of them. Unfortunately, over some conflicts in the 8th grade, I don't have many friends from my previous school but I have 2 or 3. So coming to EWSIS has changed a lot, No one knew me, so I was able to start over and I met so many great people." This stood out for me because just by reading the first sentence you interes the reader with something many people can relate to. It's really cool how you can say that even though committed a small erroe you sought to change it and starting new is always a good way.
Your story reminds me of something that happened to me. One time i was hanging out with my friend and this kittie was just sitting there alone and cold, which seemed to be abandoned. So my friend Katelyn and I decided to pick it up and take it home to feed it and clean it up. In the end my friend Katelyn got to keep it because my mom is allergic to cats (lol.) Well now the cat is about 1 year old and it's healthier than ever, where as before it could have died in the streets. We deicided to name the cat Angel Tears, because it is white with some dark spots which to us signify tears, that stand up for the rough times it had gone through.
Thanks for writing. I look forward to seeing what you write next, because i really like this piece of writing and how you really expressed youserlf from the bottom of your heart. This piece of writing is also cool for the fact that people can relate to. I can tell that you are grateful person for even the least amount of friends and that someday the gift of friendship will be returned to you.
Greyson yeah so true friends

Dear GSoukup: I like
Dear GSoukup:
I like your post "Friends",because you said that your friends mean the world to you,that means you really care about your friends,and you wanna have a good friendship with them,which the topic i'm working right now.
One sentence you wrote that stands out for me is " If they need something I get it done for them. And I know that they would do the same things for me. " I think this is true because you wanna other treat on you,you should treat other first,so that they are going to treat you as well as they could.
Another sentence that I agree on it was "But I want to show people that even when things are bad, if you have good friends then there are no problems." This stood out for me because when i got in trouble,my friends always help to solve it,too.
Your post reminds me of something that happened to me. One time i broke up with my boyfriend,and i use to cried everytime i thought about him.My friends always told me that don't because of one little tree to forgive the whole forest. I knew that i need time to forget him,and my friends also knew that,so they did their best to make me happy.
Thanks for your writing. I look forward to seeing what you write next,because i wanna to share with you how i felt about friendship before and how i feel about it now. Your post made me think of something happened long time ago about my friends.
Your care for your friends
Your care for your friends really shows that you'd do anything for them.
Your first sentence, "My
Your first sentence, "My friends mean the world to me," is what most teenagers would be able to write. But, there are students who don't have a network of friends that they could say that about. Some teens only have 1 or 2 other teens that they can call friends. I wonder what adults and other teens could do to help motivate making good friends for these young people.
