11. A friend you admire

　　I want to talk about one of my playmates in my childhood. Her name is Su.

　　She’s very beautiful. She had long black hair and big eyes. She looked like a

　　Barbie doll.

　　However her personality was very different from her appearance. I like her

　　because of her strong personality and her kindness to others. She never cried

　　even when she hurt her knees badly and would always help and comfort others just

　　like a big sister.

　　I always knew she’s a strong girl, but later I realized that she’s stronger

　　than I thought. When we were in primary school, one day, my teacher asked her

　　out and told her that her father died in a car accident. She came back to our

　　classroom to get her school bag without crying. When I went to her home to

　　ensure she was ok, I saw her comforting her mother. She was like an adult, still

　　without crying.

　　Later she went to Canada and we haven’t seen each other for about five

　　years. I can still her beautiful appearance and her strong personality. When I

　　feel discouraged, I will always remember her and I can become strong because of

　　her influence.
