I had a biggish change this year, starting my postgrad degree. It doesn't seem like a big change since it's all uni, but it is a big change in terms of workload and responsibility and so on. But I'm enjoying it. Good luck with uni, Ilander! As well as making sure you make friends and join clubs and all that, because it's so important to have a support system, don't be afraid to try lots of new things subject-wise - don't feel like you have to be locked in to any one track. Especially if you find you're not enjoying whatever you're studying - you don't have to have it all decided before you even get there, and there's nothing to gain by 'throwing good money after bad' as it were and continuing down a path you know won't satisfy you [img]smile.gif[/img]
Good luck with your studies, Kathen! You won't be disappointed going into the mental health field, trust me! Alex! I really have to make time for MSN one of these days, I am so out of the loop [img]graemlins/awcrap.gif[/img]

believe me, Aelia, I know a major in Physics will require some other classes to keep me from frying...I hope you're adapting well to your postgrad work!

Yeah, well I'm going to a different school and I'm afraid it will consume my life and I won't get to spend time with people or my hobbies outside of that. But things will be ok, I just know it. I'm going to have a great time though. Things will work out. You will have tons of fun at UK. I know I would have fun at a place like that. Parties, people... my kind of life.

Hey Ilander, even if you don't drink, it'll be worth it to go to parties. You can meet lots of people and get some solid entertainment. Constant binge drinking is for idiots anyway. I don't drink that much, especially when I go to parties where I don't know everyone; it is just as enjoyable, if not more, and considerably safer. You can also laugh at drunks with the smug knowledge that you won't have a hangover the next day.
I've got a couple friends that don't drink (one because he doesn't like it, the other because he has Crohn's Disease) and they're great fun and great to have around. It's a comfort to know that there's always someone who is fit to be a designated driver. Nobody I know has died from drunk driving, and those two guys are a pretty big part of why I can say that. Everybody knows that they'll be there, so people take the bus to parties with the knowledge that they have a free ride home. You can honestly save someone's life by being a DD at parties. Your friends will appreciate it.

That's funny because I know some people who play the DD every Friday night and practically get paid for it. Because these guys pay for their gas and food and everything. So I guess it's a good thing to play the DD. Plus you always get to laugh at your buddies the next day when they're puking their guts out and downing the Tylenol and you're not because you were too smart to go through that. lol.
