Friends are people that help out through thick and thin, are supportive, or just make amends with people that one used to dislike.<\/p>\n

People have different definitions of the word friendship, like junior Emily Miller who says a friend is \u201csomeone who is polar opposite of myself, I’ll connect with them so much better because I am interested in opinions.\u201d Junior Kayla Hoober defines friendship as \u201csomeone who will be there for you through thick and thin\u201d
\n<\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n

In high school, people have new opportunities to make new friends like senior Jennifer Figueroa that said, \u201cI have made so many friends, yet I have lost some as well, those new friends are much less complex to talk to and it’s nice to talk to new people and get to know them throughout the school years.\u201d One could make new friends because they have moved. For example, Hoober said, \u201cyes because I transferred this year from LaVille.\u201d<\/p>\n

As time goes on people\u2019s friends may change. Freshman John Lara said his friends \u201chave gotten more mature and less how they used to be I guess.\u201d Figueroa said, \u201cI have made so many friends, yet I have lost some as well, those new friends are much less complex to talk to and it’s nice to talk to new people and get to know them throughout the school years.\u201d<\/p>\n

There may be those who have people that they dislike, there are new opportunities in high school there is more opportunites for the people that disliked each other to become friends. Freshman Gladis Solorio said, \u201cYes I have made friends with people I used to dislike.\u201d Figueroa said, \u201cActually I have, and I think that’s a good way to just stay drama-free.\u201d<\/p>\n


\nIn high school there are times that it is important to balance your social life along with academics. Supportive friends can be nice to have no matter how long one has known them for.<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
