Yeap, it's the final stretch for the semester. Hard to believe how quickly it's gone by and how much I'm "used" to my new life now. Ah, crazy crazy. In the beginning when I first moved here, it was hard to even see myself getting used to the "adult life" of a grad student. The life of having to cook meals for myself every night and making sure there would be leftovers to pack for lunch the next day. The life of having to juggle the many exams and assignments that are constantly being handed out week after week. The life of quiet weekends in the apartment with so much lesser social plans compared to when I was in undergrad. A life without my "family" around me constantly.
But I did it :) I still have good long distance relationships with my friends and boy and I am so thankful for that. Because they keep me sane, and keep me excited about random stuff just like the old times except we don't see each other as much any more, but talk on the phone or online so much more often. It is easier to keep in touch with some, but not for others, which at times get me down. But I guess that's life. I imagine myself as an older adult with only a handful of close friends that I talk to constantly. As for the others that I still treasure as my close friends that I don't get to talk to as often, I hope they know that I will always be someone they can call to talk whenever they want, but there's only so many times that I will be initiating calls to them.
The final 2 weeks (and 2 days).... There's so much to be done!! ARGH. Is it bad that I can't wait for it to be over?!
