    So it has been a while since I have been on this site but I was thinking about it today and came back on to check it out. I am almost done with getting my degree. I will be graduating in June and this summer I will be moving to Colorado Springs to attend grad school at UCCS. I am looking forward to the change and new environment but I am also super nervous because I don't know a single person there. Hopefully I am able to make a new set of friends but it takes me a while to open up in a new environment. It would be great if there are individuals on here that live in that area on here. Since I have never been there I am trying to figure out what all there is to do. I am also open to making friends with those not in my current area or in Colorado. I am glad to be back and feel free to say hi. :slight_smile:

    Thanks for that. I hope that everything goes well. I think I will enjoy the degree when I am done with it. Two years can't go by fast enough.

    Well I am actually graduate with a Bachelors in Social Work in June not from high school. haha I am finishing my fifth year in college. I am going to UCCS for graduate school to get a Masters in Student Affairs. I don't think I will love in the residential hall there unless I get a job as a manager of them. Otherwise I plan on getting a one bedroom or studio apartment. I have had roommates and currently live alone and I like it. Plus getting my own apartment is much cheaper then the res. halls.

    WhiteRaven, good luck at university. It has been a great experience for me so far. I think that you will have a great time.

    Well you can't do much with a BSW and I have been involved with the student govt. at my university for about 4 years now and I love the environment which is why I am going into Student Affairs. As for grammar I am also now the best. I preferred math and science over English classes. I am an okay cook. But lately I have been so busy I just live off of cereal. Not healthy but it is what it is. I just love the freedom to do what I want, when I want. Roommates were okay but sometimes there were disagreements and bills not being paid. I on only responsible for myself living alone.

    Well the cereal thing was mostly a joke. I do eat other food other then cereal but some nights when I get home at like 7-8pm I am too tired to cook so I will have a bowl of cereal. I wish I had a personal chef to cook food for me so that I wouldn't have to cook for myself.
