I am going to talk about Minh, who is one of my closest friends.
His full name/real name is Bui Duc Minh. He is my high schoolmate. And he also has a
cute nickname, Minh Minh. He is 25 years old now. He was born in June. He is an
auditor currently working for KPMG, one of the biggest audit companies in Vietnam. He
has been working in this company for about 2 years. He lives with his family in Hanoi.
He is a very kind person. He wants to be someone who can help others. When he was
young, his dream was to be a volunteer. I remember when I accidentally fell down the
school stairs and got injured. I was moved to tears. But then he came and took care of
me. I really like him. I want to meet him more in the future.
So if I had to talk about a best friend, it would have to be Minh Minh.
