Alma Mater

A girl in my hall is withdrawing from Stanford and going home. I think she's leaving within the next week. It's not because she got into trouble or anything, she just...didn't want to be here anymore.

Even though sometimes it gets hard, sometimes the workload threatens to crush my spirits (which may partially be my fault), sometimes the three hour time difference makes me feel so isolated from everything (and everyone) I used to know...

I love being here.
