1st Trip Home
So this weekend was the first time I got to come home since being at Purdue. I was really excited because there were a lot of friends I left at home that I missed. I figured this would be the ideal weekend to come home since it was three days instead of two and I would be able to spend more time with them. Being home has showed me how things have really changed since I've been gone. I dont "mesh" with my close friends as well as I used to. I have come to realize that at Purdue I have a home away from home. I thought I would love being home, but in all reality I cant wait to get back to school. Dont get me wrong, I love seeing all my friends and my family, but it just feels kinda weird to me. I am leaving tonight to head back to Purdue and I cant wait! Boiler Up!

Hey Nick, I think i'll live the same situation by December, because I'm going back to Colombia. Maybe I'll get to understand your feelings. I'm sure things at home won't be as they used to, I won't be able to hang out with some of my friends, and it will be a pretty weird experience. I think of Purdue as my new home. Boiler up!!

ReplyDeleteIt is nice to know that you are liking Purdue and can't be away from here, but it is equally as important to maintain your friendship back in your hometown. Indeed, college friends are for a lifetime, but high school friends are the people who have shared many precious moments with you. If they do not respond well to you, try to talk it out and get it cleared, since loosing them is like loosing your past life. You could try, you never know what works out! :) (Jayne)
ReplyDeleteI'm jealous! You went home this weekend. I live like 24 hours away from my place. My bad. But am glad you met your family and friends. I miss everyone back in India.I miss the stupid talks with my friends and also the fights with my brother on petty issues.:p
ReplyDeleteWish I could bring those memorable moments back. I know I can't. I'll have to wait for the next four years. How far is your family from here?(Jayne)
Maybe i made it sound a little worse than it was... i still haad a great time with my friends and we are all still great friends! it was just a little different than i remembered. And my advice to oyu gys when you go home is to see as many people as you can! I think my visit would have been a bit better if i would have seen more people.
