What it’s like to be an adult
The more I age, the less I find myself laughing. As in “laugh so hard that I almost feel dizzy.” I hang out with friends less often that I used to see on a monthly basis. It’s like end of an era. Getting married, having our own family and being tied up at work. That’s how you get through your early 30’s in Korea. And it’s kind of hard to find true friends at your workplace. It’s not like I’ve been falling out with my friends. Let me say “life gets in the way.” Sometimes I miss those days where I would do stupid things with friends.

What It Is like to Be An Adult
The more I age, the less I find myself able to laugh, as in “laughing so hard that I almost feel dizzy.” I also hang out with friends that I used to see on a weekly, if not monthly, basis much less often. It is like the end of an era. Getting married, starting a family, and by focusing on work—that is how you get through your early 30s in Korea. Furthermore, it is somewhat hard to find true friendships at your workplace. It is not as if I have had a falling out with my friends, but perhaps I should just say, “Life has gotten in the way.” Sometimes, I find myself missing those days when I had very little responsibility, and had plenty of free time to do stupid things with friends.
Hi, Jeong. Good job! Whatever changes I made were to allow your sentences to sound more natural to my native ears, to clarify your thoughts, and for ease of reading. My sincerest apologies if I have misinterpreted. I hope that this helps you. Jonathan.
