NARRATIVE ESSAY

MY NEW FRIEND

Have you ever been in a similar situation?
The way that I met Miriam was very special and different as our friendship.
First, when I saw Miriam I thought that she could never be my friend because she was very rude with me that first time; however, nowadays she is one of my best friends something that I never belived.

I remember it was in April, I do not remember the exact date, but I´ll never forget the intense heat. I was wearing sandals, and Miriam was there when I arrived at the store that it is near to my house. Suddenly, I turned around and my sandal broke. I tried to walk, but it was impossible, so Miriam instead of helping me, she did not stop laughing of me that was something upset for me.

After that and with a lot of problems I arrived home. I thought " I can believe it " she was the only person at the store in that moment , and she should have helpeld me. I would have done for her. But she was very impolite . For this reason, I had a bad impression about her when I met Miriam .

A few days later, I continued seeing Miriam because she was my neighbor. So one day I started talking with her about many things , and I knew that she was totally diffferent to what I thought, she was special in many aspects. Infact she was an excellent person since that day , we began a friendship.

Nowadays Miriam is one of my best friens something that I never believed that could happen . She is a good friend and she isn´t impolite and my point of view about her changed and I learned a very important lesson that I´ll remerber for the rest of my life.

Global Warming
Do you know that the north pole is going to melt in some years?
I remember when my hometown Aguascalientes,was un-polluted; If you did not know it, Global warming is the biggest issue that the earth is facing nowadays,(and there are many real examples) its principal characteristic is the unespected change of the climate and environment.

It has several causes like urbanization, lack of environmental education and the greenhouse effect; the urbanization has begun to grow very very fast reaching villages and little towns with transportation, pavement, these originated pollution that in the past did not exist.
Other cause is the lack of education that is affecting the earth indirectly like in the past this problem did not exist; the society is not familiare with this kind of issue, it is very difficult to create consience in old people.
The last cause is greenhouse effect, there is a group of substances that are needed by the atmosphere to keep the warmth of the earth; but everything in excess is wrong

Global Warming has lots of negative effects that are taking our planet to put it in danger like the radical changes of climate, the collapse of the countries and many human epidemies.
The first effect is the change of climate, one example is that the seasons of the year are out of control; e.g. in spring the strong warmth feels like in summer or in the fall you can feel the cold wind of winter.
The second effect is the sinking of the countries, this could sound hard but this is true, if we continue destroying the environment in some decades the north pole is going to dissolve in the ocean and the sea level is going to increase as a consequence some islands and coutries are going to dissapear.
Other effect is the begining of human epidemics because of the other two effects the humanity is going to be in danger and more disposed to get illnesses like a great variety of cancer, breathing issues, etc.

If each one continues like if there were not any problem we will see the effects of this horrible issue, so I propose to change our mind and open our eyes to the reality because there is not other solutions Talk to all the people that you know about it!!!

However in United States exists an extense variety of food exists an extense variety of food because fast food rules in United States because all the people have a very busy life and they do not pay the same interest on the food.

The second difference is that in France the monuments are an essential part of the environment that surround the complete country , because there have had many artists and they are an emblematic of the city like Eiffel Tower, Luxembourg Garden, Louvre museum, etc.

The Last difference is that France is in the European continent and has a short length, the country has a lot of rivers, is overpopulated and shares borders with Spain, Portugal, Brucelas, etc.
Nevertheless United States has an extense length and is rich in sources, like nature there is the most cosmopolitan country in the world because there lived millions of people of different races; and USA shares borders with Mexico and Canada.

The first time when I fell in love...
When you are in high school, six months can feel like forever. Just remember back to a week before graduation and how slow those last few days moved. I know it is hard to imagine but I dated someone for almost one year. Although there have been many life defining moments, breaking up with Viri was by far the biggest challenge I have ever had to face. My ability to move past her impacted my life in ways you cannot imagine.

Viri and I met in the summer of 2005 during a family reunion. At that moment I felt what it was like to have butterflies in my stomach and the racing heart when her eyes caught my own. I felt as if I were in a romantic movie, Or a chapter of a soupopera, even Ihate soupoperas. I fell harder andharder in love for her and she did the same. For the firsts months, I felt nothing could go wrong, yet I was oblivious.

Viri and I embarked on a 11 months relationship based on fighting and lack of trust. It became more of a chore, rather than a choice, to be together. There were too many nights of tears, rather than smiles. It is incredible how someone can be everything you want but can’t be at the same time. After way to long I realized that I no longer longed to be with Viri. I became dependent on Viri to make me happy. I needed her to be there all the time.

When Viri and I realized what it was we had become, I made the decision to leave behind that part of my life. It was that single conversation that changed my life dramatically. I realized after my decision how far from my friends I really had moved. I now know that true happiness comes from within a person, not based on another individual.

But now I felt me much better I guess that time cure any hurt, even though I would do it again, je je je!!!
