Casillas is my favorite goalie. Since I am also a
goalie I really admire his skills. I started liking him about 2 years ago. I
really enjoy watching his games because I feel like I learn from him. He is a
great role model and I look up to him.
Over time my opinion about friendship has changed. When I
was younger I thought friendships last forever then I thought it
didn't and now I think it does again. As I grew older I realized that even the
strongest friendships come to an end. Sometimes life and other factors like
moving house or moving schools is what causes the friendships to end. When I
was growing up I had a couple of good friends but the fact that my family would
move a lot it didn't make my friendships last long. When my family decided to
move from Salinas to Oxnard is when I really thought friendships was
just something temporarily. I lost all the friends I had and I was
afraid to make new ones because I thought I would end up moving again and I
would not have them around. And I was right! Even when we moved here in Oxnard
we would still be moving houses and therefore I would be moving schools as
well leaving me with no friends one again. I kept on making friends but I
never really got real close to them because I knew something would come up and
I would end up moving or they would end up moving. Finally when I started
junior high my family got a home in El Rio and I knew we would be there for a
long time. I made a best friend and we were really close. I thought we would be
best friends for a long time but unfortunately we ended up going to different
high schools and we grew apart. After that I really thought life would always
be like that. Especially after high school, since I stopped talking to most of
my friends. I only talk to a few of them now. Now that I'm in college I
came to realize that there are some friendships that can last a life time. My
best friend now is someone I know will be there for a long time and us moving
will not affect our friendship. I know this because we are more independent now
and we drive. So if either of us moved we will make time to see each other and
hang out and talk.
