“Anybody have a bandage?” a voice echoed down the dorm hallway It was our first week at college. The voice made us feel a bit helpless.
Several months before, I sat at my high school graduation party admiring my gifts. The usual and beloved inspirational books were scattered around my feet. A small pile of personal checks lay nearby Laundry items, desk supplies—all well-intervention and well-received. They would demonstrate their givers’ thoughtfulness during my college career. But one gift struck me as strange. I frowned when I opened it. A small packet of pills and medicine lay within the wrappings. Who would give that as a gift?
“You’ll need that gift from your friend once you’re at school,” Mom pointed out. “You won’t have to go to the campus nurse for every cough.”
Not long after, in August, I packed my luggage into a borrowed truck and slipped the bag of medicine in. I barely thought about it once I reached campus, caught in the hurry of unpacking, book-buying, scheduling and meeting new friends.
When “anybody have a bandage?” rang out in the dormitory hall that day, I remembered my little medicinal package. I swallowed self-consciously. “Actually,” I gave a little wave, “I have one. ”As I dug out the kit and helped my new roommate, we began to chat.
Soon, many of the girls in the other rooms of my floor heard of my little kit and paid me a visit. One had bug bites—anti-itch cream popped out of my supply. The girl with the headache nearly kissed my hands when I passed her simple painkillers. As cold season approached, many needed cough drops. Each girl stayed to chat for a few moments.
The little gift I had questioned now led me toward new friendships, and earned me the nickname“the bandage girl”. As it broke fevers, it also broke the ice, allowing me to meet and make friends with many girls living on the same storey. Gradually, the others purchased their own supplies and my magic kit rarely left the closet.

It seemed to take forever, but I finally turned thirteen last Saturday. I decided to hang around my room and junk a bunch of kid stuff. As I sorted out the drawers, a photo fell to the floor. The face staring up at me was my friend, Jane.
Jane Farmer was the smartest girl I’d ever known. She almost always got straight A’s, and she was pretty, too. Part of me wanted to hate her, but I couldn’t. She was too nice, instead. I envied her and longed with all my heart to be just like her.
Jane was a top student and always sat in front of the class. My desk was in the back. I’d watch Mrs Schnell, our teacher, pace back and forth in front of us. She as short with thick red hair and a smile she turned on and off like a water tap.
I always slumped (弯垂) way down in my desk, desperately hoping to hide myself. I was terrified that the next name I heard would be my own. Sometimes my heart pounded so loudly that I was sure her ears would find me even if her sharp eyes didn’t.
Each time she called out a name, the victim would have to rise, stand straight as a broomstick, shoulders squared, and read to the entire class. More than anything, I hated to stand and read aloud to the class. Unlike me, Jane rarely made a mistake. And if she did, she was never made to feel ashamed. Mrs. Schnell would flash a pleasant smile and patiently guide her toward the correct answer. I wasn’t good at reading and could tell that Mrs. Schnell was often not at all pleased with me.
One day after soccer practice, Jane and I were standing together waiting for our mothers. We weren’t friends yet. I wanted to ask her if she liked movies, but I changed my mind when I looked at her face. She seemed to feel my eyes “What are you looking at?” She asked. “You,” I said. “Why?” she asked. “Because you seemed so sad,” I said.
Para 1:“I got B+ on the history test,” She said, sounding like she couldn’t accept it.

Donna is my sister, and I had always considered her beautiful. Our father called her his princess, and in high school, she was known as the school babe. Our parents were protective of us, particularly our father, who kept close watch over the friends she made.
One Saturday in April, a boy invited Donna to a park with four other friends. Unfortunately, on their way to the park, their car crashed into a guardrail and flipped over three times before it came to a stop on its roof. Donna was pulled from the car and rushed to the hospital without delay.
Donna was in the hospital for two weeks. Many of her friends went to see her, especially Claudia, who was there a lot. However, Mom and Dad never liked Claudia. I don’t really know why. They just didn’t like her being around.
Donna returned home with the entire top half of her head shaved. She had hundreds of stitches (缝线), some of which came across her forehead and between her left eye and eyebrow. Knowing Donna’s concern for her appearance, Mom found her a human hair wig (假发) that perfectly matched her hair.
Donna finally recovered and went back to school. But she never felt good in school. There was a very loud-mouthed, self-centered girl in Donna’s class who took great pleasure in teasing her. This girl, seated behind Donna, would pull slightly on Donna’s wig and mockingly said, “Hey, Wiggy, let’s see your scars (伤疤)”. Then she would laugh.
Donna endured this mistreatment in silence until the day she told Claudia. From then on, Claudia kept a close eye on my sister, preventing anyone from bothering her. There was something about Claudia that was frightening, even to the worst kids in school. Nobody messed with her. Unfortunately, though, Claudia wasn’t always around, and the teasing and name-calling continued.
One day, Claudia came to our home with a special surprise.

On making friends
In life we can hardly do without friends. There are many difficulty and problems that we can’t overcome with only their own efforts. Moreover, we need friends to share with our joys and sorrows; otherwise, we will suffer from loneliness. However, all friends can help us when we are in great need. So what on earth is true friendship? As a popular saying went, “A friend in need is a friend indeed.” True friends are those which never desert you when you are in need. On a contrary, they will offer you sincerely help even at the cost of their own interests. Beside, they will encourage you to stick to what is right or avoid what is wrong or illegal. In conclusion, true friendship lies in sincerity and self-sacrifice.

Although friendship is important in our lives, some consider this hard to make friends. A fine way to make friends and introduce yourself to your neighbors in Norway is to present them for a simple gift like a cake but a loaf of bread. If you gave them expensive gifts, they may suspect your intentions. If you have never baked a cake before, it may take you months to produce a beautiful cake whose can stand upright. But don’t wait for perfection. Do your better, and when you think your creation is good enough give away, do it. They will appreciate your honest gesture of friendship even if your bread is hard, and the cake looks interestingly. In fact, that helps you make the true friends is not a valuable gift but a sincere attitude.
8 . How to use humor to make friends
Be cheerful and not worried about anything
Bringing laughter, happiness and smiling to others is more about being light-hearted than it is about “being funny.”

Joking is a great way to make others laugh and develop a new connection with people, but you shouldn’t depend upon making jokes at the expense of others, and don’t fall into the trap of making fun of others around you.

A.With a joke |
B.Be able to take a joke |

9 . Whether it's the slow drifting apart from a childhood friend, the sudden, sharp distance created by a disagreement, or one of the many relationships that have quietly fallen away during the pandemic, losing someone that you thought would always be in your life is deeply jarring.
But friendship breakups will happen over the course of our lives, and we need to start learning how to deal with them in healthy ways, says friendship coach Danielle Bayard Jackson.
The most significant thing we need to do, says Jackson, is normalize the fact that sometimes friendships do end and that can actually be healthy. However, we haven't been taught to carry this expectation into our friend relationships.
“We’re not looking at our friends through a lens (透镜) of ‘Gosh,I hope this works out’, but we’ll do that with a romantic partner for sure,” says Jackson. “ With a partner, we wonder if they're going to be the one. But with friends, we assume they' re the one from the minute we establish that we like each other.”
And because we don't view the loss of a friendship as a normal occurrence, it feels like a personal failing when it happens and something we should be ashamed of. Or, as Jackson puts it, “If friendship is supposed to be easy and yours ended, what did you do wrong?”
But that isn't the case.
Friendships, like any relationship, sometimes aren't meant to be and even if they are, maintaining them takes real work. Kristen Newton has been interested in this work for years and founded HEART Convos, which aims to help people who feel stuck in unsatisfying friendships have the kind of open and honest communication that keeps a friendship healthy.
“I think we feel blindsided because we belittle the value and significance of our social connections and friendship. Yet we recognize the weight that they carry when they don't work out, and we experience that hurt and disappointment,” she says.

Thanks to her encouragement, I finally get out of the shadow. How lucky I am to have so a nice friend!
