This is me

[Seo-Kyung Oh]

There is only one thing in this world that could wake me up from sleep, a girl who can’t even wake up with alarm clock that is loud enough to wake up everyone else in the house and that rings every 5 minutes. That one thing that could wake me up is a call from someone who needs to talk to me. One of the best values in my life would be being a friend who is there for someone who needs a place of comfort. During my high school years, I had many friends who were there for me whenever I needed them. I took that as granted and thought that I was just simply gifted with many friends. With that arrogance, I wasn’t always there for them when they needed me. I just didn’t try hard to be their ‘good’ friend as they did for me. During my senior year, I broke up with my boyfriend and was tortured with broken heart. However, since I didn’t keep in touch with my friends while I was dating my boyfriend and just thought that my friends would be there for me when I come back to them, when I found out that there was no one around me when I needed to spill out my sorrow, I felt that the world just turned black and everything just started to fall apart on me. Then there was a girl who held out her hand and brought me out of despair. What she did for me was the greatest change and lesson in my life. I learned that when I want people to care for me and be there for me, I can’t just take things for granted. I should be the first one who offers them my friendship and company. Now whenever there is anyone wanting me around, I try my best to always be there for them to hear out their distresses or happiness. I’m a people lover and hopefully a loveable person for them as well.
