Wow Fone i cant believe you even remotely remembered where I was going. But yeah, its called Sewanee (or more properly, The University of the South) and its a 10,000 acre campus on top of a mountain so its obviously quite pretty and has tons of caves, and trails, and stuff like that. I was supposed to go on some pre-orientation thing this wednesday to meet people in my class and camp out for a couple of days but ive been feeling shitty the last couple of days with some kind of virus. Ill timing. So ill probably go on Friday when orientation begins. Its pretty weird leaving for college though. A lot of my friends have already left and it hasnt really hit me yet that i wont see them again until thanksgiving probably. I love those guys and theyre absolutely the funnest group of friends i could have and its weird to have to try and find another group like that but im sure it will work out. Another worry is leaving my girlfriend. Shes going to Vanderbilt which is only about 1 hour away but neither of us will have cars so seeing each other might be difficult. Nevertheless, im sure college will be awesome and ill get used to the changes.
some advice, BREAK UP WITH YOUR GIRL!!!
seriously
it will be much more fun that way, and easier
^yup. good call.
^YES! Love the avatar!
My roommate was from Albany, about an hour or more away from school, and he maintained his relationship with his high school girlfriend all though his four years at college. He kind of missed out on an awful lot of rowdy times, and not having a date to hang with on many many nights, or even just to go to a movie with. He took a lot of buses back and forth to home on the weekends and really deprived himself of so much of the local social life.
Well, he student taught in his last semester up near Albany so that he could be with her more of the time. But they broke up before he graduated because he met the girl who became his wife of these past forty years, while doing that student teaching.
We can offer a lot of advice as to whether or not you should struggle to maintain your current relationships while at school, or not resist letting it dissolve from the situation. With internet and cell phone connectivity, maintaining relationships over long distances is much easier than it used to be. But you’ll definitely miss some great social opportunities if you choose to remain loyal to one. If that one is worth it, you might not, on the otherhand, care.
no breaking up is out of the question. i promise its not going to hinder me. im still going to be able to take dates to parties and stuff
riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight
Spooks is a swinger?

Getting ready to stay in Memphis so I can go to University of Memphis and get my shitty music degree. I need to pass Calculus this semester. What the fuck does calculus have to do with music?
Everything, man.
Everything.

Substitute teaching for little punk ass middle schoolers!
They’re gonna eat you alive.
You gonna be in Memphis on Sept 21&22? Come to Panic!
