It's quarter 'til three in the morning, and I really should be asleep as I need to be up at eleven thirty to drive home, but I'm having a massive moment of self-doubt about this fall. I'm leaving in four weeks, first to Toronto for a day or two, than out to BC, and right know, I'm wondering - is this really the right choice for me? I think I can safely say that out of the two places I got accepted, UBC is definately the better choice, but...I only applied to four schools, and I wonder now if I should have applied to more places in Boston, because while Vancouver is an awesome city, Cambridge and Boston are what I grew up with, pretty much. I'm going to miss the T, even - there's something about subways that buses just don't quite touch. And while it'll theoretically be nice to be closer to a bunch of my friends, without a car, it's still a four hour trip out to the island or down to WA, which is probably just long enough to keep me from doing it with any sort of regularity and make me totally frustrated in the process
*sigh* I wish I wasn't perpetually second-guessing myself.

And I guess some of it is that I'm just used to everything being close here in New England - I was doing a five-hour train commute up to visit
(And your icon deeply amuses me for some reason)

And the grocers on campus are good, though quite a long walk away from Totem so I advise using the security bus :P Totem IIRC also has a bus-stop, and I think you can take a bus from there down Marine Drive to the ferry terminal.
<-- was in Ritsumeikan right next door

BC Transit tells me I have to transfer somewhere downtown, for either terminal, although this may be lies - will have to ask around when I get out there, I guess.

I know now I wouldn't have fit in at Princeton at all, and I'm glad I went where I did. As long as you approach college with open-mindedness and a willingness to try new things and make new friends, you'll do great, and there's nothing to worry about. *hugs* I'm sure you'll find plenty of friends on campus, and I know you'll have fun.
Live it up, man. ;3 College is the place to try new things. Don't pass up opportunities, otherwise you might regret them later on.
