I Wish I Had More Time To Be Your Friend

I wish there was more time for laughter and memories and love.

I Wish I Had More Time To Be Your Friend
Ailin Kim

Do you have that one friend or group of friends that you met too late into your college life? Now you're about to graduate and leave them and all you can think is, "I wish I had more time to be your friend."

It's one of the best feelings to find your forever friend at college, but it's one of the worst when you have to leave them behind or go live your separate lives. You know that you'll stay friends and visit each other all the time but it's different when you are out of college.

In college you live no more than a few minutes away from each other, there are nights that last forever, and most of your life is spent with them. A late night fast food trip is always on the table and when you need a buddy to keep you sane while you study for finals, there right there beside you. They're the first person or people you turn to when a boy said something stupid to you or when something hilarious happened in one of your classes and you have to tell someone. You share memories and feelings and laughter and all you want is more time. More time to be filled with even more memories and feelings and laughter.

There could be a plethora of reasons for why you guys didn't meet until junior or senior year but you're just happy that you got to meet them at all. Fate was on your side and presented you with a friend that will hold you when you cry and be proud of you when you accomplish something great and love you endlessly.

So keep them close, even as you part your separate ways and life different life paths. Keep in constant contact and let them know how much they mean to you. Plan visits and trips and quick coffee dates.

Create more memories.

Don't waste your time trying to write that paper when there are so many more interesting things you could be doing.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?

sisters

I can barely remember back when I was the only child. Most would say it’s because it is extremely difficult to remember things as a toddler but I would say it's because I was bored until my sister came along. My mother always says how important the "sister bond" is and with every year that passes I realize how right she is. Instead of writing a novel about all of the wonderful things there are about having a sister I decided to list a few of them instead.

It is the time of our lives that we are beginning to enter the adult world and most of us, if not all of us, have no idea what we are doing. It's like starting a video game, but skipping the tutorial. We're all just running around aimlessly hoping we accidentally do something right that moves us along the right path. Now that graduation has just happened, or is right around the corner for some of us, it's time to start thinking about how we are going to take care of ourselves once we are on our own.
