My best friend
I have a best friend called Hai Yan. I first met her in our school library last year.
Hai Yan is a little taller than me. She has a round face with big bright eyes. Her hair is long and straight, and she usually wears it in a ponytail. Her best qualities are honesty and kindness. She never tells lies to anyone and is always ready to help firends in need. Also, Hai Yan is a cheerful person. Every time I am in the face of difficulties, she will cheer me up and encourage me not to give up.
I am so lucky to have her as my best friend, and I believe our friendship will last till the end.
