Fucking can't wait to go back to school. I'm loving home, but I just have to be on my own again or I'll lose it.

You're not the only one. It took me nearly three years to miss home and yearn to go back, but now that I have, I end up missing it more often. I can only stay back there for so long, too. You'll love college. :)

I'm from Mammoth and I go to school in southern California...enough said. I mean, I love the freedom and whatnot of college, and of course the education, but I don't think that college is a necessity for a healthy, intelligent mind. Also, I miss the mountains like crazy...it's kind of difficult sometimes.

i hate school hahaha.
i had a lot more fun in high school. i mean i've had good times in university but its almost over (just a few months left and im done univ for good!) and i feel like all it's done is kept me from doing the things i love to do and kept me from furthering my career as a writer..whereas the reality of the situation is, it's best to have the degree. some of the greatest writers have degrees. being educated in many fields is key...it enchances writing skills...and enhances the width of your mind..therefore you can write about more things. still though, i cant help but feel time has been stolen from me. but now that im finishing up im excited to start doing things i love.

Your lucky, my buddy came home and his roommate was naked watching brokeback mountain in his bed.
Then later he tried to get the door open when he was showering.
My buddy moved out due to molestation.
Think about that when you see your roommate.

yah, you finally get paid to do something as opposed to paying to go somewhere you may or may not like.
I hated university (except for drinking at 11 AM before going to class) so I went to a technical college. Graduated with a telecom engineering degree. That shit was cool... learning to tap phone lines, intercept satellite signals, eavesdrop on wireless communications, make FM transmitters that can overpower people's car radios...

It gets better, move out of the dorms now that you know what hell is like and get a place with some friends. Everything gets better once that happens, trust me.

No man I missed college. I really like my two roomates and parties all the time are sick. Home was kind of boring. Seeing all my hs friends was nice, but you still had to get rides places, and my ex girlfriend wasn't all that fun to see. College is sick

just write a kick ass essay and get a 1900+ or so on your SAT and you should be alright bro...
just remember, with admissions, you can be in one day, and then next they wouldnt even think of admitting you...admissions are arbitrary, and you just have to hope to catch them on a good day..
im starting to feel better about it...but i feel sorry for my mom who's gonna be alone for 5 months now.. =(

they're super nice people. probably way different from what you're used to. it will be a culture shock, but after you get used to it, you'll love it. i have a TON of friends who go to MSU and i love them all dearly. montana is a super chill place where you're able to really get in touch with yourself. (at least that has been my experience growing up there)

i know that feeling man, i was home over the holidays for a few days and it just felt dead to me. i couldnt find people to hang out with because they have all moved on to other things. its gonna be weird going back and spending the summer there for sure. plus college kids are wayyyy cooler than high school kids. college kids dont give a shit about status.

at this point I could go either way.
I'm missing a Mistah FAB concert by one night so I would like to stay an extra day. And I like my sister, sucks she goes to school in Atlanta. But I love Missoula and I'm excited to get this semester started. Plus when I get back I start PT for my knee, so thats good. And I miss my three roommates! But I was out for surgery for a week or so so I haven't gotten to see my friends too much, so I could stay and go to Poly for a weekend or soemthing.
Eh.

College sucked for me at first. Then I moved out of my triple dorm and in with my friend, and its kicked ass ever since. Imagine living in a dorm barely big enough for 2 people, but with three, and the other two guys took all the closet and drawer space for themselves.

i go to school where I lived before (Vancouver), which is nice because I love the town and its proximity to the mountains, but on the other hand I am sure it takes a lot out of the university experience to live at home. Also, the fact that I don't know what I want to do makes me feel lost and that I don't quite belong in University yet, so I'd recommend a year off after high school if you need it, I should have taken the chance, because now I find myself learning things that only mildly interest me, and I force myself to think shitloads about my carreer (not that much fun).
