...I gotta stop making friends who live at least 6 time zones away exclusively. It's too expensive to meet them. ^.^;
@dillpops: it should also be a great experience because you're out without your family for the first time. My University is like 25 mins away from home, so there is no need whatsoever to move out. :| This way, you're really -forced- to make friends, which is just better, as it makes you more... well, desperate. ^.^; Just imagine if you didn't feel the need to make friends in your new classes and then you wouldn't chat up people there and couldn't copy their notes.
