Sample Answer: Friendship has always been very important to me. I’ve lots of friends and I’m proud to say that all of them are special to me. Today, I’m going to talk about one of my closest friends.

Her name is Abhilasha. I was in the first semester of my bachelor’s studies when I first met her. Although we were in the same faculty, initially we never talked much. It was during the end of the semester that we became good friends.

We had to give presentations for a science project. We were divided into groups of ten and every one had their co-ordinators. I was pretty much good at making presentations, so I was relaxed and working on something in our lab. It was then, when Abhilasha came worried and she told me about her problem. Her group mentor asked her to prepare her presentation a week ago but she was unable to do it because her mother was very unwell. The next day was the deadline of submission.

I felt sorry for her and I decided to help her. So, I took her to my home and without wasting any time we both started planning what to put in the slides. Since the coordinator was very picky, we had to be extra careful about the details. By late night, the presentation was ready and she even rehearsed a few times. We both felt confident. In the morning, she delievered a beautiful presentation.

I think the fact that I helped her even when my work was incomplete made her my friend. We understand and value each other. We have been close friends ever since then.
