The
Boys
The boys, the bayz, the gentlemen.
No other creature on this planet could have such a bond. We make the good times
happen and leave all the bad things behind us. Do you have a friends like that?
I do and I love them all. You don’t have to be a male for this kind of
relationship. The girls should be as close as we are to each other. It’s all
about the kindness and the brotherhood we have.
The laughs, the good times and the
wings we’re all under, never leave us. Whether it’s backing a buddy up in an
argument or taking the boys out for a McDonald’s run, we always have a good
time. We have our own language… made up words, our own humour and making things
up on the go. Once a bay always a bay. A bay is one of our made up slang words
and it means one of the boys. I could tell you story’s about us, but you’d take
our ideas.
How this all came together was me
meeting one of the many boys I played sports with when we were very young. He introduced
me to his school friends. Later on we became the best of friends, or “besties”.
Ever since then we added on to the group and now there are about 10 bayz. But
there are other groups of them and we all come together usually at party’s or
other large social gatherings.
The thing is, nobody can tell the
future. We don’t know where we all will be in 10 years. Maybe some of us will
be on an African safari, or we will be
on mount Everest drinking beers and such. Hopefully we will all stick together
or at least stay in touch. Losing friends is almost like losing a finger.
I really found this speech interesting! I liked the fact that you named all the good things about being in a group. I suggest maybe put a few cons about it just to take both sides... But Good speech Brock! Can't wait to hear it!
ReplyDeleteI like that your topic is a personal one for you. Friendship is one we can all connect to, no matter the age. There are a few phrases that are vague or use informal language -perhaps you could be more vivid and deliberate with some of the description. Closing line is interesting but makes me want a little more.
ReplyDeleteyo that was sick
ReplyDeletei like the ending but maybe you could extend it, besides that it was really good i like how its something we can all relate to.
