OK, so I thought that I would be very happy to leave MSU for the summer, but as I was paking all of my things up today and saw all the parents coming to move everyone out, I got this weird sense of sadness. After all my complaining about hating classes, being annoyed with people here, and missing people at home, you'd think i'd be happy, but the truth be told, I am really going to miss this place. I know i need a break, but almost 4 months is a long time. This year has had it's ups and downs, but i wouldn't trade a minute of it (well ok, maybe a few instances). Classes weren't as bad as I made them out to be. I've had some incredible professors and some crappy ass TA's, but all in all I feel smarter, and that makes me proud. I've also made some AWESOME new friends, and had some revalations (good and bad) about old ones. I'm going to miss my new friends this summer. Not having anyone to get pizza with at 3 a.m, not having anyone to have interpretive dance sessions with, not having a roommate to go "bum-hunting" with(like a hobo, not an ass), no more drunken walkes down grand river and every other street up there, no more cake fights, and not having anyone to eat dinner with (no offense rachie). I know that's something so small, but dinner time is one of my favorite times (and we all know it's not because of the food). As for my old friends, people from high school that I thought I would never like again, have now become some of my favorite people (one especially :). Relationships with my closest friends and incredible boyfriend have gotten closer and if it weren't for them (you guys know who you are) I would have never gotten though this year. And on the other hand, people that I thought I would never lose touch with, I have ( no one's fault, it just happens). This summer is going to be weird going back to all of the people that I've just spent 8 months away from. Everyone will have their new friends and sure we will all do the same stuff as last summer, it will be different because everyone will have changed so much. Many people have become a lot more extroverted, which shall make for an interesting summer! Hopefully everyone has matured and this summer everyone will hang out, not just the "groups" of friends that everyone tried so hard to be part of in high school, and so hard to get away from in college. We'll see how this summer goes, but I know i'll be itching to get back to this place in the fall!
