Trip End
Dec 11, 2008
For most of my friends, summer ended about a month ago when they packed up all their gear and shipped off to college. In the beginning, when everyone was still insecure, I had loads of people to chat with online until the wee hours of the morn, but now that time is over. Most of them are settled in now - they've got their new friends, enemies, professors, workloads - and the internet became a pretty quiet place yet again. Going online at night became less important, the air around me began to go stale, and the delicious coffee I drank every morning grew bitter. As comforting and loving as home is, it is no place for this eighteen year old. The summer is over. Tomorrow, I leave for Zurich. Wish me luck.

Daniel, when I signed on, the site indicated you were 'online'. How could I have texted with you ?
