Last evening in Stevens Point.
I walk in Commencement tomorrow. (even though I technically do not graduate until August.) I'm sitting in my dorm room, a room that has been my home for 1 1/2 semesters. Most of my friends, people who have become like family to me have long since left, gone home for the summer, with plans to return next fall.

Those who remain, for the most part are us handfull of seniors who chose to stay in the dorms and not get apatments. We who are about to leave this institution of higher learning to start our lives.

I've never taken big life changes like this well. Hell, people with ADD like me tend no to. By the time I get back to Marinette County tomorrow evening, I will most likely be physically, emotionally, ans spiritually drained. Hell, I feel like I'm leaving my family forever. I know, It's all crazy talk, If I'm still in Wisconsin, I'm sure I can make homecoming weekend in the fall, and if I don't make the trivia contest in the spring without an extremely good reason, I'll have some explaining to do to my relatives down here. However, this feeling remains.

All I know is that it's going to be a very long night, and I'll be lucky to get much in the way of sleep.

1. Changes are opportunities...
You will do just fine, and in one year, you will look back and laugh at how scared you were. :hug:

2. I think the worst part is...
Before I came here to Point, I was a real loner. Here, I found friends with common interests who I have become very close to.

I just don't want to go back to being alone again.
