Just that being much older than the rest of the kids, I am inclined to being a bit more laid back. And thanks again! @IKnight StrikerS was a frustrating love-hate affair for me. I cannot really say it is really crappy, but it has fallen into the YOU ARE DOING IT WRONG classification for me. Having spent some time in the UK back when I was younger, I can definitely say that university life in the States is way different from that in the UK. But somethings never change! Like the tendency for people to engage in seemingly pointless conversations about how 'wicked that was'. Of course, they are just being enthusiastic about making friends so there is nothing really wrong about that. @Anonymous So sweet! @Panther Thanks! But my college does not demand a lot from SAT scores, which I had completely messed up at, and regards 'personality' as a main factor for admission so I did not exactly get in because I am darn good in studies. Though most white students claim that my year is the hardest ever to get in, with over 80 000 students applied for only 4000 places. lol @issa-sa I never watched Koko wa Greenwood but I can tell you I am still not used to the oddity of the place I am living in. I entered my room and it was decorated with anime posters. To add on to that, there was a white boy and a black boy grinning at me with anticipation upon my arrival. Not trying to be racist or what but I have never met a foreign weaboo in person! @Kitsune

Objectively I think we agree about <em>StrikerS</em>, but I'm sure my excitement graph would be very different. I imagine it would peak similarly at (4), jump at (6) (RIOT ZAMBER HELL YEAH) and stay high to (7), 'Section 6 dissolves, IKnight cries into his mug of tea'. Interesting observations about US uni. I suppose universities vary from country to country, but the prevalence of Facebook (which I refuse to use) and the tenuousness of early fresher friendships are certainly echoed in my own experiences last year.

Good luck! Boston is one of the best and expensive cities in the US. It has a very different feel compared to other major US cities. Boston University was more expensive than Harvard last time I checked. haha Very interesting observations about college life :) As for seniors and graduate students, they are ghosts because their life consists primarily of sleep, food, and studies (some do manage to find time for anime though) :P Congratulations on starting a study in Boston! Good luck!
