life in university isn't easy. but it is amazing. it's amazing because of the people that you meet and the things you learn. not just the things in class either, the important stuff, like what bar has the cheapest wings on tuesday night, and how if you're wearing a short dress, darling please do not dance on the stage.
but life is never easy, so why does university suddenly feel so much harder? because you're alone. and despite what you may say right now to interrupt me, you're wrong. hear me out... yeah, i know you have the best friend that will always be there for you, but they wont. sometimes they'll be busy, and that's okay. but at those moments, you're going to be alone and you're going to have to be okay with it. it's hard because everyone else is alone too and we're all just clinging to the person that will provide us with stability, even for a day. if you're lucky they might stick around longer than that, but soon enough, you'll be alone again.
don't interpret this post as this little girl sitting in her room with all the lights off feeling lonely. (i'm actually in a very well lit room listening to this) i'm not saying that. unlike some people, i find the answers i usually need when i'm alone. despite my best efforts to try and talk with people about problems, i usually just end up solving them by myself and ignoring all prior advice, unless it's what i actually believed. being alone is something i need in life. especially this life. when everything's going to fast and everyone's in a rush to do something bigger, be stronger, live faster, be older, i'm content enough with myself to sit and reflect...and decide that yes, today was a great day and yes, i am happy.
