I want to be an undergrad again! :(

May 10, 2002 23:15

Ok, so I am currently visiting my family because it is my brother's graduation weekend. I attended his honors convocation today, and while I was waiting for the ceremony to begin, I was suddenly overcome with a longing to be an undergrad again (my brother is graduating from the same university that I attended). I miss my old school. It was a good school... and while driving around campus, I discovered that they made a lot of changes. For example, there are a ton of new apartments on campus which weren't there when I was going to school. It figures that after I graduated, they decided to fix up the campus.

And on a related note, while I was at the ceremony today, I discovered that my undergrad GPA had missed magna cum laude by 0.1. A tenth of a point! Stupid 2nd semester freshman year! It messed up my GPA. Though, half an hour into the ceremony while still at the beginning of the alphabet of name announcing... I realized that maybe it wasn't so bad that I missed by 0.1, one less ceremony for me to attend... I didn't need the gold rope anyways. Hmph. *sigh* Oh well... I guess I didn't need an extra title anyways. As long as I am interested in learning right? :)

I wish I could start all over as an undergrad. I think if I could, I'd double major in CS and Biology, or at least CS and something else. Maybe check out what the dorms are like now or get one of the nice new apartments. I miss walking around campus between classes, playing on the computers, hanging out in the student union... Can't I just rewind time a bit? Please? :( I didn't really miss school after I graduated, but now that I went back... I find myself wishing I were still there. *sigh* Oh to be young again... ;)
