I'm afraid I chose the wrong circle. The wrong group of friends to take me through this part of my life.
They're not driven, they're not ambitious. They're not academically equal. Not in the same percentile.
That's not to say they're not smart guys, just smart with different things (couldn't find a better way to put that).
Growing up I've always been about my books and that's evident in my grades and achievement thus far. Coming to university I thought I could branch out and relax a little. I went into the path of girls and alcohol. Disappointed in my grades but I still do well enough to be called 'smart'. 3 years down the line, a few months from graduation and I've entered my comfort zone again I feel a shift in my friendships. I don't find my guys interesting anymore.
I'm finding comfort and peace in my books. My taste in music is changing and I'm comfortable with the girl I'm with. I don't see myself doing stupid things anymore.
I don't know if they see the same changes but I'm curious to see if these friendships last.
After graduation, I don't think I'll be making much of an effort to see them. I'm actually looking forward to going back to the friends I grew up with. The ones that know me.
Perspective.
