The Person Whom I Admire the Most

Okay, my English teacher, Miss Kamisah, asked the whole class to write an essay about the person whom we admire the most. Our teachers, our parents, our friends, idols, anybody. She told us to describe the person, and write about what the person achieved and had done in the past few years. She told us to write about why we admire that person. And okay, so, here's my essay:

The person whom I admire the most would probably be my friend, Dina Dzafira. Honestly, I have no words to describe her, except that her height is normal, she has long, straight, silky black hair which she ties in a ponytail everyday to school and that her complexion is fair. Dina is the kind of person you can describe as amazing and tremendous, or in other words, awesome. What makes her so amazing?

Well, for starters, she's an amazing artist. She draws pictures of characters from her favorite Japanese cartoons. She draws at any possible moment she can. Even at 3 AM in the morning if she's still awake. Her passion for drawing just inspires me. I have never seen anybody who has ever criticized her drawing before. And I don't think anybody will ever do, because if you look closely, it's as if the drawings can speak to you. A blank paper and a pencil can create so much if they're in the hands of a true artist, don't you agree?

Dina is a great friend, in a lot of ways. She helps me with my problems, gives me a space to express my feelings and tell me what to do, not even mentioning that I'm wrong. She jokes around with me like nothing's ever got to her. She talks like she doesn't care what the other person thinks. She appreciates her friends, in some ways you have to look closely to really see it. She's not just that, she's also a very forgiving human being. I don't think I've ever seen her get mad at somebody for more than a day. Not even a full 24 hours, I bet. She once told me that being mad at somebody is just a waste of time and it will get you no where. It amazes me how she can convince herself that. If it were me, I'd be all negative if I ever get mad at somebody.

Dina, she's one of the bravest person I think I've ever met. No, not in the "I'm not scared of ghosts" kind of thing. Well, partly in that zone, but mostly in telling people what she thinks is right. She's not afraid to speak her mind. It's not that she doesn't care what that person feels like, it's just that, she wants to tell them what's right. And that's a good thing, if you see it on the bright side. So, maybe she uses harsh words sometimes, it doesn't mean that it's a bad thing she's saying, does it? Sometimes, I wish I could be like her. Brave enough to tell people what I think, and risk losing something I love rather than living with unsatisfactory for the rest of my life.

Someday, I hope to be more like her, kind, brave and to inspire people with what I do. I also hope that we'd be friends for many more years to come, because she is like family to me. She's my best friend in the world and I don't wish to lose her. And I will never be ashamed or embarrassed to say that she's the person whom I admire the most.

I know, it sounds weird, like, not a formal essay, but that will do. I'm so lazy to write a formal essay, with bombastic words. I still have piles of homework to finish in less than 48 hours. Bye!
