: Sample Answer

Throughout my academic years, I had many good classmates with whom I spent a significant amount of time and did different interesting stuff. Some of them became my long term friends at a later time. One of my classmates whom I would like to talk about is Ron who later became a good friend of mine

I met him at class six after I got admitted to the high school and on the first day of my school, he sat next to me. We started reading together from class six to class ten and after that, he got admitted to a different college. So we studied together for more than 5 years and during these years, we did lots of things together including preparation for the exam, playing, making stuff and visiting different places of our hometown. We often played in the evening together and sometimes we were on the same team and thus enjoyed the games. He often came to my house to watch TV and we mostly watched interesting TV programs. Before the exams, we used to study together and share our notes and other study materials. I remember learning swimming and riding a cycle together. We often used to walk by the bank of rivers and enjoyed our stays

As we have been very close for few years, we had some minor quarrels as well. But those were not very serious as to interrupt our relationship. Most of the days we used to sit close at the classes and shared our books and notes as well

I mostly remember him because he was a good classmate and a friend a well. We spent good times together and since we had been together for a long time, I have many happy memories regarding the things we used to do together. And that’s why I still remember him
