Friend

What do you expect to friends? I want to be friends with people who are relaxing to be with and ones who are exciting.

When you feel lonely or depressed, your friends would be valuable. With relaxing friends, you don't need to make amends with them and you feel at ease being around them. Sometimes when I'm down, I don't try to talk to them and friends also talk little. That's very comfortable for me and I get better feeling being with them.

On the other hand, I'd like to be with people who are very exciting. They know a lot about interesting things I don't know, and their way of thinking and behavior intrigue me. One of my friends teach me how wonderful Japanese fire works are and how to watch it. I'm surprised at his wide knowledge and I'm excited at his story. One of my other friends studied abroad in Tanzania. It's interesting to hear the story about elder of Masai he met in the village. Being with them, I learn various things and they broaden my world.

According to the Oxford dictionary, the word friend means "a person you know well and like". In my definition, "friends" means not only that, but also a person who is relaxing and exciting.
