Friendships

‘Walking with a friend in the dark is better than walking alone in the light.’ – Helen Keller
 
Our friends are THE BEST! We have so many of them in our Umbrella family and today our talented writers wanted to share their thoughts around the people who make us happy and warm our hearts…
 
 
Today’s blog is what does friendships mean to me.
Hello my readers and welcome to my last blog with Just Write and Monday is going to be my last day at Handmade. I am just letting you know my friends that it’s going to be an emotional one today, but I had a blast knowing all my friends. Some of the words to describe my friends are positive, honest, talented, thoughtful, kind, and caring. I have learnt so much along my journey about teamwork, supporting each and other through our highs and lows.
 
Making beautiful memories along the way at Handmade with my arts, I will dedicate a special place at my new house for my art and this it will remind of the good times I had with my friends. One of the staff members calls me JESSICA and it makes me giggle, I am going to miss all of my friends so very much.
 
Friendships to me is having someone to talk to about anything, I love having a laugh with all. Thank you to ALL my friend’s for always being supportive of me in every way thank you, to also my family are my friends too. 
 
All my friends, don’t judge a book by its cover love from Jess  
 
 
 Hi friends, today’s topic is friendships and what it means to me. I have so many friends but I have two bestest friends. One of these, is Jessica. I have been friends with Jess for three years since I started with Umbrella. 

With Jess, we have a wonderful connection and she is kind of like a big sister to me and an interesting fact about Jess and I is that we both love art and craft and I love doing art and crafts because it’s sparks my creativity.   We both are emotional people who struggle with similar things. I think doing arts and crafts is a way Jess and I both release our creative energy, it is calming for me too.  We can talk to each other to work out our struggles and she is a trustworthy friend.  Sometimes I have trouble with separation anxiety and I know I will miss Jess when she leaves but we will still see each other and face time with each other. 

I have another friend named Amelia also for three years we have been friends. 
I see her on Tuesday for cooking and dinner with friends on Tuesday nights once a month and I see her on Friday mornings. I talk to her on FaceTime and on phone calls and sometimes in a group on our FaceTime and Snapchat.

I value my friendship with my friend Amelia because we both love cooking and being silly and it makes me feel happy. It is important to have common interests with your friends as that’s what keeps you together. I believe in astrology, and I believe some star signs are meant to be friends with other star signs and that’s what makes people comfortable as friends. 
Thank you, friends, once again I look forward to next weeks blog. Beth
 
 
Hi my readers, todays blog is about friendship.
 
Friendship means to me, having a friend you can talk to and have a good time with, laugh at the funny moments you have, there can be ups and downs but it is important to work together and sort troubles out with one another. You can trust a friend when you tell them stuff, and they can trust you too. 
 
There are lots to do with friends, you can have sleepovers with your friends, hang out during the day, and go shopping for lunch and things like that. At the end of of September Katie and a few of our other mates are going bowling for some fun on Friday afternoon.  We haven't' been together as a group for a long time so it will be fun to see them and play bowling together.  
 
At night Katie and I, and three of our mates play Fortnite together.  We play squads if there are only four of us playing, otherwise if there are more than four people, we play free for all.  If it's just me and Katie we do 1v1 or duos.
 
After all, friendship for me means that a friend is always there for you and you always have someone to talk to, or you can just annoy them for a laugh. It means you have a lot in common.  Katie always steals my food, so I have to bring extra food for her because she's always hungry, but it doesn't bother me because I steal her food too so it's fair  haha.
 
Thank you for reading my blogs this week, your friend, Alannah
 
 
Dear readers, today's topic is friendships.
Let me start by telling you about my friends.
I have a lot of friends that I made at school and Umbrella Support and I’ve been friends with my school friends for five years.  My friends from Umbrella Support for three years including a friend called Jess from Umbrella Support.  Jess is a good friend and a beautiful human and she and I talk on the phone and text almost everyday.

What I value in my friendship with Jess is that we are honest with each other and we are both supportive of each other.

Do you have a couple of friends or close friends?

Friendship what is it? Friendship is the emotions or conduct of friends; the state of being.

Friendship can be also a part of your family. Let's talk about my friendship with my cousin. My little cousin is like my little brother to me. We always play games together. We play VR chat together and we do a bit of role play. Yes he's not really supposed to be playing VR chat but if he's with me he's fine.

He also listens to my podcast by the way my podcast is "Press Start with Ryan". It's on Spotify. Me and him always role play skibdi toilet in VR chat.

Now let's talk about a different relationship with my girlfriend. She means everything to me. We met each other on Discord. We've been dating for a month now and she is an amazing, wonderful person.

Me and her always talk about stuff, sleep calls and she watches me play my games through Discord. Like I said, she is an amazing person. I love her endlessly and I will always be there for her. If you find that person that you love, make sure you hang onto them, you might not get the chance to love tomorrow. – Ryan
 
 
Friendship for me is with Alannah and Cody and we play games together.  We also hangout in real life and we all love talk together. 
 
I have online friends from my game too.  Cody and Alannah make me happy for hangout with friends we love talk in game and I worried Cody all the time but not for Alannah sometime she been in trouble.

I think it is important to have friends because we look after each other and be friendly to each other. – TJ
 
 
Friendship makes life beautiful… 

Hello Friends,  

What is friendship? According to collinsdictionary.com a friendship is a relationship between two or more friends. Now what does friendship mean to me? Friendship to me is beautiful moments with beautiful people, the people who connect with each other's souls and who bring you the most joy while also having the ability to be the most annoying people on the planet.  

Did you know there are national and international days to celebrate the different friends in our lives? I honestly take any opportunity to celebrate friends because they deserve it and its good to let people know that you love and appreciate them. (I did my best to get the spelling and the dates correct, though some might be American dates and spelling.) 

Galentines Day (13th February) Galentine's day is usually described as a day to celebrate women’s and girl’s friendships, I however will celebrate all my friendships on this day because why the heck not?  

Siblings Day (10th April) as the name suggests siblings' day is a celebration for your brothers and sisters but I think you could also celebrate your friends that are like siblings to you too.  

National Best Friends Day (8th June) best friends' day is to celebrate your best friends, and I would include my dog in this one.   

International Friendship Day (30th July) I would say friendship day is to celebrate all your friends.

National Pet Day (11th April) some of the best friendships we have is with our beloved pets, so I needed to add this day in, so we remember to celebrate our pet friends.  

While there are many days listed dedicated to celebrating our different friendships, I believe that every day and any day can be a day to celebrate your friends. You can tell any of your friends today how grateful and appreciative you are of them, because they are always there for you and love you endlessly, show all your friends some love just because you can!  
​
Now to finish off my blog I have a fun fact for you, did you know that the 4th of September is national wildlife day? What a great excuse to celebrate our wildlife friends!  
Now go off and spread kindness around like confetti my friends!  
Your friend, 
Shan.
