Sample Answer:

Thank you for giving me this opportunity to talk about my best friend, Julia. I believe friends make our life more meaningful and special. Julia is such a friend who is very compassionate and my best buddy.

We are friends for more than seven years now, I met her in my college days. I started to enjoy her company from the very beginning and her essence in my life had a defining purpose. She always supports me in thick and thin and gives me a shoulder in times of need. Moreover, she’s a good listener and one of the most talented person, I have ever met. We share many hobbies and have common interests. Whenever, we get time, we meet each other at Cafe and discuss about books we read, criticize or praise any recent movies and talk about our future plans. Most of the time, we love to watch TV shows at our homes with a cup of coffee. Apart from this, we often go shopping together and help each other to choose dresses.

I love Julia a lot because of her personality in and out. She never hesitates to tell me the truth in an unapologetically and blunt way and never resists to stop me when I am wrong. The best part of our friendship is speaking your heart out without being judged. No doubt, she is  an indispensable part of my life and I am very lucky to have her.
