I think that it is ALWAYS a good idea to randomly remember livejournal.
So this is me. Being almost halfway through my second year at UD (which was the best decision I have EVER made) maybe not the engineering part but it has it perks like meeting some great people and having people think I am really smart when I tell them what I am studying.
This past summer Emily and I went to Europe (Germany, Switzerland for a night, Italy, and Greece) it was absolutely fantastic in every way. We met a bunch of neat people who we don't talk to but that's okay, we still met them. We visited Em's friends from Finland, one in Germany and 2 in Greece where I managed to bum off them for almost 2 weeks. I saw a boy I went to high school with the one night Emily and I went to Mykonos which I still think is pretty cool.
Next summer I plan to return to Europe. There is something about it that I can't get here, and I like meeting new people. I plan to visit a friend in London, one in Germany, and one that might be in Amsterdam or might be back home in Greece. Also one of my sorority sisters is talking about moving to Greece so if she does, I will be there for a while. I think I am going to study abroad in Leipzig too. I am really looking forward to that.
Back home......I am trying to co-op next semester instead of taking classes. I had about 4 interview and I got an offer from GE in Louisville which I think I am going to take. It pays good and the work sounds interesting. I want to actually co-op in NorKey though....sounds stupid since I couldn't wait to get outta there, but it would be nice to not have to pay any rent and be with my family. I know they would love it. You don't know what you have until you don't have it.
Right now, most things just seems to be falling into place. I have met the people that will always be in my life. I think it is amazing how you can tell the difference between the people you will always be around and those that you are just around at the moment. While I miss a lot of my old friends, and I always will, I know that those bonds are different now. What I have with my new friends seems to be a stronger friendship...its the kind of people who understand what you are and why you are that way...and not to mention they are aware of what you are going though. I really have nothing to complain about. My life is nothing to cry over especially when I see what everyone else is crying over.
