A Brand New Beginning
What's changed?
The food, buildings, professors, classrooms, classmates, groups, rooms, dorms (though not mine, yet), my computer and a hundred other things in ways minor and trivial.
But some things have changed perceptibly, observably, consciously and clearly. Among them:
1) I no longer have vague notions of heroics and minor delusions of grandeur or illusions about myself - I know now exactly where I stand; and not in academics alone. My feet are Fevistuck to the mezzanine. Let's hope it doesn't go crashing down.
2) Following from the above:
My attitude towards people; let's call it a shift from naive optimism to a stance of optimism tempered by selfish demand.
More effective I think for everyone.
And what hasn't changed?
The good dream. If anything, my conviction on matters such as friendship have only been strengthened.
That's not change; that's progress.
Post-script: The Gods have smiled upon me. Finally. Sundays through Wednesdays completely free for the next two months.
So here I come, all ye near and dear.
