Well, here are my thoughts on college that I have come to realize yesterday.
Yes, I do really like FIT. And yeah, I like the people and the overall vibe. And maybe it's just the wiggy coincidence that it's too similar to my HS therefore I tend to compare the two. But here's my problem with college.
There's no tie between people.
That sounds weird I know (it's the phrasing). But I realize really that in college, people seem to other people more disposable. Like, well, it has to be because it's always interchanging whereas in high school you'd see the same people everyday really for 4 years. So you're more prone to not become very good friends with people unless you really went out of your way to see them. Which of course seems to be the case most of the time (you'd have to go out of your way eventually), but the shear notion that now that people aren't seeing each other everyday, they're more detatched. Or people have an excuse not to see you.
People fear change probably 80% of the time so they tend to stick to people they know. I would like to, but at the same time I would like to meet new people. But just because I do I don't want to be disposed of by people I knew before. I mean, what is the point in that? Who wins in that? Even if it's unintentional, it seems intentional but purposefully meant to look unintentional.
My point is, college will probably leave me very jaded. And to go along with the tide, I will probably have to toughen up and leave all emotions aside so when good-byes come, I won't care.
