thoughts on college

I just got back from New York and will have something to say on the subject, including pictures. Until then, some thoughts. In my struggle to get into medical school, I wonder whether or not it will be like college. I don't mean whether or not the work will be the same. I imagine, and hope, that it will be much more intense and challenging. I wonder what the atmosphere will be like, what the people will be like. I worry because the people will be the same premed kids I have taken classes with, and frankly a good number of them frighten me. I just hope something is different. So many people say how they want to go back to school, how they hate working and college was so much better. I guess I am in the minority when I saw I hate that I have gone back to college. College and I don't fit. I can't say it's because I'm older with more experiences and I don't have as much in common with the students...I didn't fit when I was in college the first time. Except for my roommates and a few other folks, I didn't have many people I could relate with. And I fashion myself a socialable gal. In the work world, I think I have an overabundance of friends. I guess it is a good thing that the work world suits me better, as that is the world most of us have to live our lives in. But I'm hoping medical school will be different. Anyway, as I sit in the computer lab at school... its just what Im thinking.
