What’s In a Good Friend?

What qualities and characters do a good friends have? I wanted to jot down a quick list of 5 qualities you want in your friends. All of these qualities are aptly named for a friend that inspires me.

1 The Snyder quality- the friend that will patiently listen to you and let you complain and talk about your problems. I would always call Snyder in high school and even in college to vent or complain about my problems like why won’t girls respond to my late night texts like wanna watch a movie? ;) ? Or how long is too long for my back hair? Everyone needs a friend that will listen to them.

2. The Sardoni quality- this is the friend that is just hilarious that will make you laugh in any situation. Like the time he ate 2 Del Taco bean and cheese burritos at Sammy Hansen’s baptism. This is the friend you can hang out with in any setting and you know you’re going to laugh and have a good time.

3. The Tyler Smith (Owl) quality-

This is the friend who’s dependable and you can always count on in a bind. Like for example in high school late one night I chased out of a house by 2-3 men with a malicious intent (don’t ask what happened) and as I was sprinting from my pursuers I saw Tyler jogging for his own recreation. I gave him a quick hoot and he jogged over and ran with me for 2-3 miles until I eluded my pursuers and later the police. I don’t think I would of made it if he wasn’t there.

4. The AJ quality-

Growing up AJ was always the guy that had the thing you needed or wanted. For example his freezer was always full of frozen pizzas and Jimmy Dean Breakfast sandwiches. He also had a pinball machine, waterbed, all of the Zelda games and a shake machine. Also he had a King Cab Truck (you could at least ten guys and a 2 love sacs in the back of that truck ) and a pool. You couldn’t go wrong he had everything you wanted. AJ was always there with something you needed and his pool would always be open on the hottest of summer days.

5. The Sehcrest Quality -

Now one thing you want is to have a friend who’s always down for anything. Whether it’s hiking Mount Timpanogas, sneaking into your old high school teacher’s class room to change your grade, or that will come with you to hang out with some crazy chicks you met on Myspace. This type of friend is always up for it. This quality is aptly named for Sehcrest who’s always down for anything with anyone.
