My life is really happy

I believe in the fact that my life has been the best its ever been.

Since coming to college there have been times where I wanted nothing more then to be alone and just have a negetive idea to everything and everyone. I thought that things were just really hard and I only had a good time on occasion. I felt that life here would be just as tideous as life back home tends to be at times. When I started to balance the new things that college was bring into my life I began to try to figure it all out. I would look at people here who had jobs, friends, and awesome talents in arts and education and they're only freshman. I wanted to be like those freshman that attend Columbia, but I didn't know anyone who were like that, and who would want be my friend.

I think about that time back then when that idea was almost the center of my life here at Columbia. Then over time things changed, college life was going the way that I wanted. I meet people here who have those wonderful qualites mention before and became my close friend that I never want to let go of. I believe that my life is happy mostly because of these close friends acting like close friends to me always. Its very hard for me to be away from my friends here. I feel that when they aren't around or when even one is missing, it becomes hard for us all to really enjoy time together to the highest degree.

I see that my friends helped me enjoy Columbia and making me not ever want to leave this school. There have been so many things that I have done while being at Columbia, and Chicago in general. I was able to these things without being alone.
