A relationship in my life that's important is my friendship with Becky. We have known each other for probably about 8 years since we go to the same church. Becky is really nice and friendly to everybody. I know i can trust her by telling her anything and know that she won't judge me. This past summer we went on a mission trip to Costa Rica together. It's amazing how much you get to know someone even more when you are spending every waking moment with that person for 10 days. I have to say that before the trip we weren't as close, but now we really are. We don't go to the same school, but she lives close enough that we hang out whenever we can. We talk on the phone a lot, but sometimes if we are having a really busy week and don't have time to talk much we write little notes to each other. We almost always see each other in church, youth group, and other youth events such as small groups, Alpha (a class at my church), and youth retreats. We hang out outside of church too. Just this past week we went shopping. I think an important aspect of our friendship is that it doesn't matter where we hang out, we always have fun. It's funny because we both like speaking spanish a lot, so we talk to each other in spanish (as much as we know of that language).
Whenever i am having a stressful week or day i can talk to her and just get things sorted out. She one of those people where you can be your total self around them- goofy, funny, and just weird. I think that's also an important thing, that in today's crazy world we can just hang out with someone and relax, not caring if you don't look good that day. Along with those things, Becky and i share a common belief. Our relationship with God is just as important to me as it is to her- its major. Plus the mission trip is huge common ground. If Becky were to move to Alaska i would miss her a lot. I would still talk to her as much as i could, but i know my life wouldn't be the same as it is with her living 10 minutes away. Church and all church events would still be fun, but not as fun, if she wasn't there. School life wouldn't change much since she goes to Shen, but everything else would. Becky is one of those friends where you can never find another one like her.
