<p>I wonder how seadogg is!</p>
<p>Less than a week till I start and I’m really nervous myself. In fact, I tried sleeping for over four hours, finally realized I couldn’t, and just got up and found ways to pass time. </p>
<p>Mostly worried about the friends that moved away and my roommate whom I think already hates me just based on the few emails we’ve exchanged. :(</p>
<p>Also worried about doing well in college, getting the classes I need to graduate on time, and paying for it all. I’m not getting any financial aid, yet I come from a single-parent household.</p>
<p>This is such a difficult transition. I feel for you. Just do things “one day at a time.” That’s all you have to do. It’ll work out! I remember the night before I went away to college. I took a long walk alone and paced, paced, paced. It’s the unknown that’s so scary, but soon it will be known. If it seems as if your roommate hates you, it’s probably because s/he is feeling scared and thus defensive.</p>
<p>You’re about to embark on an interesting adventure! It will be fine. Try to get some sleep!</p>
