Introduction:

This is a great topic to talk about, and I thank you for this opportunity to let me talk about a friend of mine whom I felt proud of. Here, I would like to talk about a time when I felt proud of my friend for his accomplishment.

When it was:

This incident happened a couple of months ago when my friend John received an award for his remarkable work in a national-level programming competition.

Who this friend is:

John is a brilliant computer science student and he has been participating in various programming contests for a long time. The competition he participated in was organized by a well-known tech company and it was held at the national level. John had been preparing for this competition for a few months and had put in a lot of hard work and effort to prepare himself for the contest.

When the results were announced, John secured the first position in the competition, and I was very proud of him. I congratulated him and felt proud of his dedication and hard work. I knew how much time and effort he had put into the preparation for the contest, and his victory was a reflection of his passion and dedication towards his field of study.

How often you two met:

I don’t get to meet John very often as we live in different cities and are busy with our respective careers, but we do keep in touch through social media and phone calls. I felt happy for him and I could see that he was thrilled and satisfied with his achievement.

Explain why you felt proud of your friend:

I felt proud of this friend on this occasion because he is a good friend of mine and naturally, I felt proud and happy with his success. I was delighted also because I knew that it was an important achievement for John and this would inspire him to do even better in his academic career.
