Comparison and contrast essay: Compare yourself now with the one five years ago

From being babies to become adults, most of us will also have a lot of changing. The changing is not only about our appearance but also our characters in our mind.I'm like that, especially the changing about me at the present time and I myself when I studied in secondary school.There have some different features but also similar ones in some ways.

I feel clearly the similarity about some characters inside my mind.I'm still a friendly girl and always pays attention to everyone.I remember that,when I was studying in secondary school,in our class we warmly greeted a new friend. She was so shy and timid.I approached her and talked gently to her.Gradually,we were beloved each other and became close friend up to now.Now,when I study at university,I feel happy because I have a lot of friends around me.They always believe in me,and often tell with me about their joys or their sadness,especially Ly,one of my closest friends.Once time,she had some troubles with her boyfriend.She was so sad and couldn't concentrate on her studying.I have tried my best to help her by giving her some of my sincere advices.Fortunately,at last she overcame that difficult period and I am greatly pleased about what I have done to help my friend.

Beside some of the similar features of mine,I have some different characters.Now I'm stronger and more independent.When I was studying in secondary school,I was familiar with the caring of my parents.I just thought that it is an usual thing that I have received from them.I did not have to go to school by bike as my friend because I have my father be concerned that.In addition,he help me with my studying about whatever problems I was still confused.About my mother,she always took care of me by delicious meals and sound sleeps.But I have changed a lot when I study at university.I have to learn the way to take care of myself and a lot of other things.Furthermore,I must solve much troubles which happen with me without thanking to my parents.I used to easily cry whenever something wrong came with me.But now,I often encourage myself:"Be stronger" and afterwards,I'm brave to face with it to find down the best way for solving it.

In short,it is very interesting to recognize the similar and different characters about myself.Also,I feel very happy when I know that,I become more better than I used to be formerly.
