I Remember My Friends
by Nora

When I was three or four years old I had just one good friend. His name was Henry, but everyone called him Henkka. We were really good friends. We lived in the same neighborhood and we were in the same kindergarten. Our mothers were good friends too, because Henkka's mom was worked in the bank where my mum and dad usually went.

I also had another friend whose name was Jukka. He lived at the same place that Henkka and I did. We used to play football (soccer) and we also used to play "coppers and robbers".. I had a Nintendo game. Henkka and Jukka used to come and play with me. I sold the game to Jukka, when I moved. ukka is now Henkka's best friend. Henkka and Jukka are boys.

My other two friends were girls. They lived close to my old school. We were in the same class. Their names were Jasmin and Laura. Jasmin was my best friend before I moved to the house were I live now in Finland. Laura played in the same basketball team as I ded. Laura was a really good player.

Once Jasmin's bicycle was stolen, but me and my other friend Tiina found it. It happened like this: Jasmin and I went to a place that was close to a river. Jasmin was with her bike. Jasmin left her bike up on the riverbank and didn't lock it. When we came back, the bike wasn't there anymore. After about two or three days Ti ina and I came from her mother's job. Then we saw Jasmin's bike. We were sure that it was her bicycle. We were very close to Jasmin's house, so we ran really fast to her house. We told her father that we saw Jasmin's bike. Then her father came and we went to the house where we saw the bike go to. Then Jasmin got her bike back and she was really happy. Her mum said that I could go with them to McDonald's and she would pay for my meal.

With Laura we played some good basketball games. Some of them we won and some of them we lost, but we had always very good times together.
