508's Secret English Garden

Dear Linda,

    Yesterday, you told me you got a boyfriend and asked me for some advice. As your best friend, I don’t think it is a proper time to have a boyfriend at the age of 17. Do I sound like your mother? Let me tell you my reasons.

    First, schoolwork should be your priority. If you fall in love with someone, you’ll spend more stamina on clothes, dates, and some silly behaviors such as day dreaming about him. Don’t let the temporary passion obstruct you from your dream of being a legal medical expert.

    Moreover, I don’t want our friendship to become indifferent. We got along with each other less and less recently. I used to be comfortable with you, but now I feel embarrassed when being in front of you two.

    So, Linda, my friend, take my heartfelt advice. Let us focus on the things we are supposed to do. If he really loves you, he’ll wait for you and think for both of you.

                                                                                                      Yours,             

                                                                                                                            Serene
