× I have friend whom I know I have known since childhood.
✓ I have a friend whom I have known since childhood.
The noun 'friend' is singular and requires the indefinite article 'a' before it. Omitting the article causes a grammatical error in English.
× I usually spend time chatting and hanging out with my friends either at at the cafe or in the park.
✓ I usually spend time chatting and hanging out with my friends either at the cafe or in the park.

× Sometimes we also enjoy watching movies or playing sports together to have a fun and relax, so it's very exciting.
✓ Sometimes we also enjoy watching movies or playing sports together to have fun and relax, so it's very exciting.
The phrase 'a fun and relax' is incorrect because 'fun' is a noun or adjective and 'relax' is a verb. The correct form is 'have fun and relax' without the article 'a' and using the verb 'relax' in base form.
× So, uh, also at school too.
✓ So, uh, also at school.
The phrase 'also at school too' is redundant because 'also' and 'too' have the same meaning. Removing 'too' improves clarity and correctness.

✓ We can meet up with each other every time we spend time together and try to share our experiences or just easily talk about our family issues.

✓ I prefer to spend time with my best friend because I don't know why it's more comfortable and we can talk about everything.

✓ So yes, of course, why not. Uh, because, uh, as I said, one of my friends, uh, always invites me to his home and we usually spend time together.
