One month ago I was starting grad school. It does not feel like a month has gone by, but it has. It has been different than I expected, and the 5 pounds lost already tell me it is far more stressful and time consuming than originally thought.
I think that I thought grad school would be less lonely. I don't really know the area and the people in my major all have their own lives and things now. It's not like undergrad where people are looking to make friends and things like that. We are all here to study and that's basically it.
I am at UCONN, which most people know. The apartment I live in kinda crappy but I'm dealing. I miss Boston and Cory like crazy. I go up there almost every weekend since there is NOTHING to do down here except go to the casinos.
Overall I'm fine, just a little lonely. Becoming a doctor is hard and lonely work.
In other news, Cory is busy applying to grad schools all over the country. Everyone is hoping for MIT, because having him 2 hours away would be a hell of a lot better than Caltech, Stanford, or Nortwestern.
