New school, new friends I love my new school! I have made a lot of new friends there. Li Hua is one of them. Li Hua is helpful and patient. He is also good at maths. When I meet difficult maths problems, I turn to him for help. When something interesting happens to me, I share my happiness with him. When one of us feels sad, we tell the other one and this makes us feel better. We really like doing things together. Li Hua loves playing ping-pong with me after school. “It’s fun to play with a good player like you,” he says. With his help, my maths has improved a lot. I am also more confident now, and I have the courage to try new things. My parents also tell me that I am more open and willing to help than before. Close friends can really help us in our lives! My friendship with Li Hua teaches me a lot of things. Friendships are not only about having fun, but also about love, honesty, understanding and trust.
