This point in my life kind of sucks

[thirstyhippo]

I'm doing a double degree; my course takes 5 years, at the least 4.5 years if I rush it. My seniors graduate earlier than I do. & so do my peers. (It only recently occurred to me that majority of the degrees take only 3 years to complete, not 4 years like I used to assume) By the time I graduate, who's going to come for my commencement? My family

I love you. Am feeling better now.. Who says people don't plan for meetups >1 month in advance? I do!! But only with important people. I wouldn't go so far as to set a date but you + me + Lois must meet up when you're back. Send me a reminder when you've touched down okay because I tend to forget these things :O

still, i think it's brave of you to go on with your double degree anyway - i can name a few people who have already chosen to drop theirs (though for a variety of reasons). and there are always friends to be made when you're doing your second degree, right (i'm not sure how double degrees work in other faculties though, because for my law double degree friends they do two years in law and then go over to the other faculty full-time. do you do a mix every sem?).

and knowing you, yinks, i really have faith that you'll carry through. because i think you're a stronger and better person than you sometimes give yourself credit for.

and i know what you mean about thinking that you have to be smarter and nicer to make up for well, looks (although i have to agree with ^ as well that you're looking good these days =)). now that i just got unattached i'm starting to feel the pressure again =(

[thirstyhippo]

Yeah I only recently realised that more people drop the DDP than I thought would.. To answer your question, I do a mix every sem- I guess for Law is different because you're on a totally different campus. I don't have many friends from Biz that I made while studying; rather, the friends I know from Biz are from external activites, in a oh-by-the-way-I'm-from-Biz manner.

Aiyo, you're now single? What happened? (Drop me an email if you don't want to post it up here, I understand perfectly.) I hope you are doing better these days. Stay strong.

oic. but at least you get a change of scene once in a while? i get what you mean though, sometimes when i'm in a place i'm not used to i just feel... bleh.

lol i'm okay, thanks dear. i just suppose i need more space for myself at the moment.

[stillingfleet]

as in, that was part of why i broke up with my ex, not that i need other people to give me space about it xp
