The last time I was really happy or sad I think I can say was at the same time.  This is the first time I have had to leave my family, my friends, and my whole life behind in my little home town in south jersey.  This was the biggest thing I have ever done in my life.  It was very depressing to know that i am leaving everyone and everything I loved and grew up with.  Who cares though is what i started to think on the drive to state college.  It is something that everyone has to grow through so why am i getting upset about it.  I then turned my emotions around.  Knowing that i am finally starting to really grow up and take things under my own control was over whelming.  Being a freshman at the great school at first was crazy.  This huge campus not knowing anyone, i really wasn’t sure what to do.  But now here I am sitting in the hub watching the tours go by with all of the other soon to be freshmen.  I know that they must feel the same way that I did when I entered this huge new world leaving everything the love behind.  I concluded that it’s nothing to be sad about.  I should be happy that i have this great start to my life. Speaking of being really happy i went home this weekend and loved every second of it.  I brought a friend home with me from psu and let him meet of my home town friends.  We all had a lot of fun and it made me happy that people who i grew up with and love bonded so easily with the new friends I’m meeting here.
