Friendship is too broad of a subject to blog about, so I'm gonna change things up a bit.
Let's talk about role models!

I have only a few role models, most of which are my peers. The majority of my friends would be shocked at who they are, since they're so unlike me (which is kinda why I look up to them). I won't list them here, but I'll give you a few key aspects I like in each one...

Aggressiveness. I know in health class everyone was taught to be assertive, not aggressive. I don't think that's always the case. Aggressive people speak their mind and don't care about the consequences--a trait I wouldn't mind having. I always think twice before commenting on anything. I never want to hurt anybody's feelings, stomp on anyone's beliefs. I tread with caution, especially in conversation. For once, I'd like not to care. Go ahead and call me a bad person for it; I'm too scared to say anything back.

Tolerance. Each of my role models have this quality. Tolerance of what? Well, anything. They always keep in mind a person's race, gender, religion, sexual orientation, handicaps, and never judge. They only form opinions of a person by their actions, and are generally accepting of people. I strive to be like this, even though sometimes my first impressions get in the way.

Determination. This is one trait I really need to work on. I have so many things I have yet to complete because I dropped out at the last second or just plain forgot about them. I always say to myself "I'm gonna do this" and somehow always fall short. This applies to most things, even my school work. I've started so many books, puzzles, games, and left most all of them unfinished. Though the one thing I'm determined to follow through on is band. And I have my reasons for that. Haha, gave up on that too... Who would've guessed it.

There are so many other positive things that I idolize about these people: their will power, likeability, leadership skills... But there just isn't enough time to go into detail.
