| So I never quite stopped the emailing of xangas to me, because I was too lazy to click any of those buttons that said "unsubscribe me". After seeing so many college entries...I just had to throw one last one out there, and give some closure to the end of xanga for me. Since we started this thing way back when..how about a nice finish in college.
I was going to write one after my party, but I think Facebook notes was just that much easier. Now that most if not all are actually in college, I hope everyone is have a great time! I don't know for you, but the first few days for me, were realllly overwhelming. It's not high school anymore- there's new clubs to join (we have to be members again!), new people meet, customs to adjust to, weather to adjust to (coooold ithaca i.e.), and the inevitable start early for the end. And somehow amidst everything outside of the academics, doing everything here was just a lot of fun. I'm not joining random clubs that i don't enjoy, or stupid honor societies that did nothing. everyone in the cornell campus has to be the nicest person i've ever met period. granted us br kids are like a huge family, in which the br grapevine will probably never die lol, its so refreshing to meet people who are just - so nice. There's too much to do here, and I don't think I can complain that i'll ever be bored in college lol.
I kind of like this new experience- the college experience. I might try going home once a month, but so far my vacations force me to do just that. And i don't mean force in a bad way because it's always good to go back to bridgewater, but staying in Cornell has a lot of bonuses. I hope everyone is finding the perks of their college, the best places to eat, the people to stay away from, the of course, the best libraries to study in. Don't party too hard too fast, don't say no as often, and try not to get homesick by thinking of the past! The past of bridgewater will always be there, every time we visit. We all miss each other (even those who don't explicitly state it!) and we're going to have a great time when we get back for Thanksgiving and Christmas break. So look forward to then, don't dwell on the past, and live for whats going on right now- because its supposed to be the best time of your life!
--and fyi. BR formal writing rules are a m a z i n g! lol

My decision theory professor was mugged three times and twice by gun point (one of which by a 13 year old) and hit on the head with a pole the last time.

| I would like all of you to know..that i think bridgewater is completely overrated this summer...as I will only be there for one week (in which I'll probably not be able to see anyone unless they stop by the temple in my free time ::hint::)
Looks like UPenn is the beginning of my summer...3 more big things left. and as much as I would like to see all you guys when we're not dead/tired/sleep deprived...I can't. So hopefully we can make the year somewhat fun/nice/enjoyable?
For anyone who has ever done a program like this...does it feel wierd to think of coming home? For some reason...I just like being here and meeting new people and experiencing a new enviornemt completely different from what we have. A fresh start. No stupid competitiveness. i'm not stressed when studying. we do things spontaneously. if we want to go see a movie..we go. if we want to go bowling..we go. no deliberation to see who else is going...and wait till its some huge gang and that way no one is left out.
i don't know...maybe a break is good once in awhile. it feels refreshing to come back home...i think i'm a little different |
