Just a quick update because if I start pouring my heart out I'm going to get all emotional. I am living on campus at SUNY Plattsburgh, lucky for me I don't have to share my dorm room, but I did end up in with about 80% freshman. I had requested to be in one of the two upperclassman buildings but it didn't happen.
I like my classes even though chemistry is a pain in the ass. I don't really fit in as most of the other students and a few of my professors are younger than I am... I haven't really made any friends on campus and the only social life I have up here is thanks to the local SCA group. If it weren't for them I'd probably feel even more lonely and isolate than I do. They have been very friendly and welcoming.
I have no clue how I'm going to deal with two years up here. I have had a number of people suggest some hook ups but I'm not really comfortable with the under 30 crowd in those circumstances, yes they can be young and pretty but I like a little more maturity and then there is the other end... the over 60 crowd... for some reason I attract guys outside my age range like crazy. I try to stick to within about 10 years of my own age as it's easier to have common ground there.
So I haven't vanished I'm just trying to deal with all this and spending a lot of time doing homework and trying to convince myself I'm OK and this is a good idea.
school,
life's hassles,
sca,
whining
