The impact that our friends have on our career and personal life

It was not a great time when I started college because of COVID. We are a year late, and everyone in the room appears uncomfortable because we are already a year late. As we all know, engineering is always the most difficult and competitive. In a busy place called GVPCEW, every individual had their own way of thinking about and dreaming about the future. One was always thinking of cool and creative stuff; another was into business ideas; and the third loved working with computer codes.

When the difficult examinations arrived, the business-savvy friends organized study sessions to keep things in order. The computer code pals were always willing to assist with difficult challenges, making the difficult tasks easier. The creative thinker added levity and enjoyment to their late-night study sessions. In both difficult and easy times, everyone is there for everyone.Through thick and thin, everyone was there for everyone. We celebrated each other's victories, provided a shoulder to lean on during stressful evenings, engaged in friendly competitions, and supported one another through personal and family challenges. Our friendship became a refuge, a safe space where we could be ourselves without judgment for each other through numerous difficulties, stressful evenings, friendly competitions, and family issues. During these trying times, the rest of us stepped up, offering emotional support, understanding, and even helping with practical matters. It was in these moments of personal difficulty that we discovered the true strength of our friendship.

Beyond the classroom, our common experiences had taught us valuable life lessons. The value of teamwork, tenacity in the face of adversity, and constant support were the foundations of our friendship. We had evolved into more than just classmates, we had formed a close-knit group that transcended the stresses of college life.
We gained life lessons as well as academic things throughout the course of four years.

I understood the friendships would have an impact long after we graduated. The contacts I made, the skills we learned, and the emotional support we gave each other would be crucial in our future employment and personal lives. As we prepared to enter the professional world, we were confident that our friendships had not only enhanced our undergraduate experience but had also laid the groundwork for a bright future, both individually and as a group.

I conclude that this is the story of my final year, a chapter where friendships went beyond the lecture halls, shaping not only our academic pursuits but also laying the foundation for the adventures that awaited us beyond graduation.
