Mitsue is one of my friends from swim. I met her at the YMCA swim practice in August of 2015. I was 11, and she was 12. Our coach put us in the same lane and I got to know her from then.

Essay 1: Descriptive Essay of a Beautiful Friend of Mine Helen Keller once said that “the best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched, they must be felt with the heart”.
