Last Couple of Days

So as I write this I am two days away from heading out of Chicago. It is a strange feeling to be leaving I suppose because this is the first time I have left people behind that I did not have to. In highschool, I clearly had to leave. That was also the case when i graduated from college. However, in this case, I could have pursuded my doctorate at the same school.

As I head out of Chicago, I will be leaving a few people behind. In my life I have left many people behind and I wonder if I will stay in touch with some of these people as I sincrely hope to. In grad school a lot of times you meet a lot of people but make very few friends. This is because people tend to lead their own lives and not be as involved with school activities. Many of these people have serious boyfriends/girlfriends or are even married. It is a very different lifestyle to college and can take some serious adjustment.

I had thought about sayign something to each of these people I would leave behind here, but the fact is, I would rather do it face to face. And thats why I havent upodated this blog in a while. I have been spending time with these people and leaving "the right way". I do not know if I will see them again, or if I will keep in touch, but I hope to.

With that, I think this will likely be my last real update from Chicago. Tomorrow, or later today I might put up a small thank you chicago post, but this will likely be the last real post from the Windy City.
