*Sigh* It’s that time again: time for departures and good byes.
I hate that. I spend 5 weeks getting used to my peers and the environment. Then all of a sudden, just when I become comfortable with this new lifestyle, time comes in and flips the bed that you are sleeping on over in the middle of the night.
To be truthful however, I am also relieved that I am going back to my good ol’ home. I can only handle a certain threshold of 2-3 hour sleep nights and college food. I need to eat rice and chinese cooking. It’s built into my genes.
In a semi-good way, I haven’t particularly become attached to anyone here. I became decent friends with a few people here, but nothing really more. I will certainly miss their help and company, but my friends back at home are just as cool–in different ways of course.
Leaving this year was a lot easier than last year. Besides the awesome classes here, I have really nothing else to miss. I was packing today for the grueling 9ish hour train ride back home, and I was feeling quite good until my roommate started playing sad, leaving-type music. It made me sentimental and caused me to think about life here. I made it through PGSS. I am now an alumnus of this prestegious program. It’s kind of like a feeling of graduation, I suppose. Everyone was in this together. Everyone worked through long nights and difficult days. Now, I can’t believe that this is the end. Never again, will the exact same thing happen again. The people here are awesome. I wish I could continue courses here instead of going back to school.
So, I hate saying goodbyes.

Are you considering CMU for college?
On the subject of food (since my one-track mind focused in on that from your entire post) the food at CMU is ranked second worst in the nation by the Princeton Review.
Yeah, goodbyes always suck.
For Euge:
Yeah, why not? It’s a fairly good school. Good computing place.
Dave:
Hm, figures why I lost around 5 pounds when I was there. I really can’t survive on pasta and cottage cheese every day.
