　　Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? It is better to choose a friend with whom you can have fun than to choose a friend that will help you when you are in need. Use specific examples to support your answer.

　　I once saw a sign that said, “Friends are the family you choose for yourself.” Sometimes we have friends that are really fun to be around, but that does not qualify them as good friends. The best kinds of friends are the ones that are like family, the ones that will always be there for you when you need a hand.

　　Fun friends are not always true friends. When I was in middle school, my best friend was a girl who was fun and very popular. Everybody wanted to be her friend. I felt really special because she let me sit next to her at lunch. She was really fun to be around, but whenever I really tried to talk to her, it seemed like she was ignoring me. After a while I realized that she really was not interested in anything I had to say. This made me feel like I was not a very interesting friend and lowered my self-esteem. I did not realize at the time that friends should never make you feel that way. As I got older, I realized that that kind of friendship is poisonous and therefore began choosing my friends more carefully.

　　In addition, people that are quiet can also be fun. I realize that when finding friends you cannot “judge a book by its cover.” In high school I found a group of friends that at first seemed quiet and not very fun. However, we shared a lot of the same hobbies and after getting to know them better, I realized that they were really fun girls. Unlike my friends in middle school, these girls are caring and interested in what I have to say. When I have problems at school, they always take time to listen to me. Maybe they are not as outgoing as some people, but I know they truly care about me.

　　Recently, I moved away from my hometown. When I moved away, I quickly realized who my true friends were. I tried to keep in contact with my all of my friends. I wrote to my fun and outgoing friends, but they never replied to my letters. My quiet friends were the most faithful correspondents. I was lonely when I first moved away and they helped me feel not so lonely. Moving away helped me learn who my true friends are.

　　My best friends are like my sisters. They are fun to be around, but most importantly they are loyal and supportive. Whenever I have a bad day, I give one of them a call and they always make me feel better. I know from experience that sometimes the most fun and outgoing people are not always the best kind of friend. (455 words)
