Good morning our beloved English teacher, maam Siti, hello friends that I love, and everyone

who hears me today, best wishes to all of us.Let's give praise and thanks to God Almighty
because we are all in good health and well.Let me introduce myself, my name is Sherlly Aurellya
from class 9B, Maria Goretti Junior High School.On this occasion, allow me to deliver a speech
on the theme of the friendship, to fulfill my English exam.

When you hear the word best friend, what comes to your mind?Surely you would think that a best
friend is someone who always listens to our stories, a relationship that is established with
sincerity, loyalty, and is always there in times of joy and sorrow. However, it turns out that the
definition of a friend is broader than that, namely best a friend is a person who always gives
advice if we are wrong, a person who always guides us on the right path.Often we think that best
friends are the same as friends even though best friends are clearly different from friends. You
can't possibly tell all your problems to your friends but you can tell all your problems to your best
friends.Look for as many friends as you can, but never look for best friends. Because later nature
will sort our friends to become our best friends. If you want to see your best friends then look at
them when you are in trouble , because friends will leave when you are in trouble but best friends
will always be with you in good times and bad. Be smart in choosing friends.In fact, if the
friendship that has been established over time those who are old and have chemistry will find it
easier to recognize their friends. Like when a friend is in a sad state or is in a bad mood, or is
having a difficult problem. If the chemistry is already established, hidden things like that are not
difficult to guess. It's simple, friends, try and answer honestly. Have you ever just looked at your
best friend but immediately laughed because you understood what she meant. Honestly, I have, I
just looked at her then laugh and do the same thing afterwards. Well that's what friends are. For
some people, friends already know more individual things than others. Do you have friends? Just
answer it in your heart. Don't be quick to judge someone who often hears your stories or
complaints because that doesn't mean they are your best friends, they only hear your stories but
are not with you when you are in trouble. In reality, we are definitely more comfortable telling
stories to friends us rather than our own parents. Friends that I love, especially class 9B friends,
we only have a few weeks remaining at Maria Goretti Middle School, after graduating, don't ever
forget that we once had a story together, don't forget that we have been together to fill Monday to
Friday with laughter and tears.Soon we will leave our middle school alma mater and will continue
our struggle to the high school level. Even though in 10 years we will meet and gather again,
those feelings will never be the same as the feelings we are experiencing and feeling now. So let's
this last week build better friendships and never fight. And if we are no longer together, never
forget these beautiful memories. Because we must be grateful to God who has given us friends
like now, not everyone has friends like us. There is a quote that I like, "Friendship is what gets
you through the hard times and helps you enjoy the good times."

That's all the speech I can deliver today, more or less I'm sorry, thank you, ma'am. Goodbye
friends, be happy and thank you for the joys and sorrows.
