In college I learned a lot of things, but the two most basic are that you don't have friends and that life isn't fair. Don't even try to say I'm wrong, because I know. You might think you have a friend, maybe you've known since kindergarten, but ultimately you break up and never speak again. Of course, no one will admit it, but it's true. When I say life isn't fair, it's because it isn't! In college, you have a bad hand and there is no way out. Say no to plagiarism.

The lemmings follow each other, and are trapped; there is no way to escape it. Even if you try to get away from other lemmings, it never works. Friends are like lemmings who follow the lemming's head. As soon as they find someone better, a faster and prettier lemming, they forget about you completely. Often you think that this person or people will be there to confide in forever and will always have a shoulder to cry on. Then one day your best friend finds a more perfect lemming and slowly begins to move away from you. Slowly at first, then faster and faster until one day you look up and find yourself alone. Then you start to think about it, and you realize that they weren't really my friends to begin with. You are alone, alone, alone, and there is no one to pick you up when you fall. It's because life isn't fair. In a way, you always knew because you didn't always get the Popsicle color you wanted, but now it's because of real things. Life isn't fair because you don't get along with your family, and they put you down and insult you all the time. Life isn't fair because your so-called friends betray you and there's no one to turn to, and whenever you have a bad day, there's really no one to turn to. Life isn't fair because after missing the bus, failing a test, getting a reference and pulling a muscle, you still have to go home, do three hours of homework, take out the trash and listen to a lecture from his parents. Life isn't fair because often you feel like no one loves you and you can't go on. Keep in mind: this is just a sample. Get a personalized article from our expert writers now.

Most of the time you get nothing except people being fed up with you and angry with you, but you feel better. Since you have no friends and life isn't fair, you might as well do things that make you feel better because you're the only one you have. I don't know if it will stay this way forever, I sure hope not, but if it does, then at least I learned two important things in college, and I know I will always remember them, true or not..
