well since i hit up the whole sports thing last time it was time to go a little more serious. since the start of school alot of things have changed for me. work has become more stressful school is great but sometimes its just annoying to have to be there before i have to go to work and i do believe my personal life has changed ALOT. you see well in highschool i was in a very close knit group of friends, it was what you could say us against the world. no matter what was going on we were there for each other be it one of us getting hurt by someone or something that happened or if we were just having a bad day it was our close group of friends that stayed together. now this is where the change comes in, i grew up. see my friends were well how do i say this not the most mature people. as i grew and prepared myself for the adventure that is college we seemed to grow apart.
my life without my highschool friends is different. at first i thought it sucked that these people were not going to be around. what was i going to do, who was i going to talk to? well you see college opened the doors to all new things. new people have entered my life and the old, well still there sometimes, are not really there. although it is a very hard thing to grasp im happy this change has started to happen. my key friends are still there from highschool and now there are more people moving in that i truly believe i could talk to. this is the greatest thing about college the new people that will enter your life will make you appreciate the change.

I understand what you mean completely. It's odd, you think there's going to be this one group forever, but then some leave forever and others come into prominence. I definitely relate.
Same thing for me... Up to the end of high school, I hung out with the same group of 10 people or so pretty much daily. After that I went to university in New Brunswick... and I didn't know anyone in the province, let alone the city.
The experience worked out okay in the end. School sucked and I couldn't take it after awhile, but I wouldn't have lasted there nearly as long as I did if it weren't for the friends I made. They kept me (mostly) sane. So now if I ever end up out east again, I'll at least have some people I can call and not feel like a total outcast.
One thing I like about college is that I feel like we're all in this together. In university, everyone sort of picked their own classes and went off and did their own thing. Here we've all got the same classes, so we can all help each other out.
Oh yeah, not having classes with 300 people in them is nice too.
