My best friend

Well, I’d like to talk about my friend Lily who was my classmate in grade eleven.

She is a lovely and pretty girl, long black hair always tied in a ponytail, fair skin, and bright eyes. You know, she likes laughing and even a little joke can make her laugh for a while. When I am with her, whatever we are doing or talking, I just feel relaxed and happy.

We were always in the same class. But at the beginning, we were just strangers because at that time, students were more likely to talk with classmates who sat near them. I remember she sat far away from me. In fact, the first time I began to notice her was during a class presentation. After the presentation, I was totally attracted by her eloquent speech and then I really wanted to know her and be her friend. But it seemed to be strange and intended [not sure what word you meant here] to directly ask someone to be your friend, you know, we even didn’t have a talk with each other before. So, we still didn’t become friends until the day of my 17th birthday.

That morning, I received many text messages from my friends saying happy birthday to me. Surprisingly, one of them was from Lily. You know, I couldn’t describe the feeling I had at that time and I just replied and asked her how she knew my phone number. She just replied to me that it’s a snap! Since then, we became best friends, sharing stories with each other, studying and discussing things together, and having late night talks during weekends. She is my ladybro. Now, I still cannot describe how we become best friends, you know, it just happened. Maybe it’s fate and there is nothing better than having such an intimate friend.

I thought this was very good! Just one note - you wouldn't usually use the verb 'discussing' by itself, you would have to say what you were talking about. Either say 'We were discussing school' or 'We were discussing things' but not 'We were discussing'.   You can say 'We were having discussions' though.
