Is it just me, or are funny people absolutely amazing? From past experiences, I’ve definitely realized that a humorous person can make your day much better. Within the past year, I have become good friends with Ben, who is one of the funniest people I’ve ever met. With just one joke, he can brighten my entire day! It amazes me how people can do that; how they can change someone’s mood entirely based on their personality. Is humor something you’re born with? Or do you develop it over time?
As with Ben, there are many people in my life that make me laugh every day. Alessandra was my best friend from Kindergarten to the beginning of sixth grade, but unfortunately, we drifted apart. Although we didn’t talk for the majority of seventh grade, we’ve become a lot closer this year! One of the characteristics I love most about Alessandra is her humor. A funny face, a sarcastic remark – whatever it is, I always laugh so hard when I’m with her. Whenever she’s around, I can’t help but laugh, and I think that’s a really great quality to have.
Sadly, I don’t find myself very funny. Whenever I try to crack a joke, I usually end up standing there awkwardly, hoping people might smile a little. I guess you could say I’m the “laugher” in most situations at school. I rarely say anything funny, for I am afraid of looking stupid (which is usually the case). I envy people with humorous personalities, as well as people who aren’t so caught up in other’s people’s perceptions of them. I guess what I’m trying to say, is that I am so thankful for funny people – they bring a smile to my face every day, and even though I can never return the favor, I hope they know that they are very talented!
