Friends are very important person in the life of all people. As says somewhere, “are the family you can choose”. A good friend is a person you can share your problems and it help you to find a solution or to stay quiet if you are very desperate. But a good friend also enjoys your happiness, your success. You have to looking for a person to give happiness, time and interest. The important things are you can count with this person, independently if you see your friend daily or if you only talks with he on the phone or chat.
I'm a good friend. Sometimes, too much. Should be for this that I don’t have many friends. I want to say that some people aren't the person do you think but you have to trust. I'm honest, funny and if a friend needs me I run for help him.
I like to meet people in the university, but the best friends I have I made in other situations of the life. My closest friend is Paula. I know her since 2008, when I worked in a shop. She is seven years older than me. She gives me good advices and I see her quite often. Always when I to go downtown, I pass for her house to visit her and talks long hours about life, boys or family and the projects of everyone.
I keep in touch with many friends of the school. My best friend of the school is Patricio. He is a really good friend. We don’t meet hardly ever but soon, on November, we’ll make a school reunion.

When I was a child I read many books to the school. Now, I don't have many time to read the things that really like me. I remember when I was around four years old and my mother bougth me a story collection. It was very special because the books was very big, like an atlas and come in a box. Was the stories of "Blanca Nieves", "el Hombre de Gengibre" between others.

Now I enjoy reading some books to the university, about the old history or books about the best works of journalism in Chile. I dont have an special writer but between the chilean writers I like to read Cristobal Peña and also admire the works of Vicente Huidobro and Maria Luisa Bombal.

I recently read a book of a chilean young writer. It was "Canciones punk para señoritas autodestrctivas", of Daniel Hidalgo. It took me a couple days and read it in the bus and subway. This is a book of stories that happen in Valparaíso, mixing the reality with fiction, accompanied by a soundtrack of punk songs. It trapped me because the stories talks of real problems of young people, love, poverty, the misery and punk music. Is a comparission between a punk song and the reality of the port.
I reccomend this book specially if you are young and if you love the punk music.
