                                                                           A Unique Character
 
                Firstly  I joined at Hamka university, I met a girl who has a unique character. Her name is Dwi Arih Lestari. She is my classmate. She is a girl, but she is manly. She behaves like a boy when she speaks and clothes. She doesn’t care  about her style and speaks louder like a boy. Although she is manly, she is very kind. She can be trusted to keep a secret  when I have some problems. She is always near to me to listen my problems and helps to solve it. I have been making friendship for 2 years. I am really glad to meet her. If someone doesn’t recognize her before, they will think she is unfriendly because she has a rude face, but she is very kind. I hope our friendship became even tighter.
