well, tomorrow i'm off to university. i'm sure most people my age go through this when they head off to a university away from home - missing friends, family etc. - but it all seems different to me. the friendships i have with people seem to go much deeper than with all those popular kids at college who rejected me, they just head off with a few tears but soon forget their old friends. i just can't see that happening to me. i spend almost all of my time with friends - the old group from school, the unruly bunch i go driving with, the old friends i havent seen for ages anyway, and the close few i have been to hell and back with.
most of my friends are staying put, in decent jobs already or doing apprenticeships, most of them dont really see why i should bother going away.
i'll miss all the pratting around - the chucking eggs and flour over eachothers cars, the stealing eachothers shoes, the vowing never to speak to them again but seeing the funny side of it all the next evening in the pub, the staggering home at 4 in the morning. i'll miss the friendly bunch at work, i was never there long enough to quite get to know them properly. i'l miss the family, who i might not even have when i leave if their plans to emigrate go ahead.
and of course my girlfriend, who i am really worried for. im terrified social services will move her back to the druggie-infested hell hole that is Dagenham, away from the first real family she has ever known, and even further from me. Bastard useless social worker tossers. I'm the only thing that has remained stable in her life for the past two years, and she really needs me. and i can tell she means it.
of course i will have fun at university, of course i will make new friends, but i just cant let all this fade away while i am gone.

Haha swears you're one insensitive bastard.. but I like you anyway.
Don't worry about the university Ezkerraldean. Unless it's in another country you won't completely lose contact with your old gang. Probably what will happen is a filtering of the friends you have. The best ones will become evident and stick, the peripheral pals and acquainences may fade to make room for the new friends you make at the university. It's not gonna be too drastic and heartwrenching, I don't think. Just let things work themselves out and have a good time, but don't neglect your old friends either.. and you'll be fine! :)

Mate, haven't they told you what university is like?! It's 3 whole years of that sort of fun and games, with even more drama as there are no parents around to keep people in check.
On a related note, (years after leaving school) I'm going for a night on the lash with my old school mates in 2 weeks time and last night I went over my ex (school days) girlfriend's house for a cuppa and a natter. You will stay in touch with the people you really liked and you'll care less and less about those you can't be bothered to get in touch with as time goes on.

Too many people go to uni now. They need to get it back down to about 2% of school leavers, get the rest on some useful vocational shit. Otherwise, the chinese are gonna eat our useless 2-2 degree holding asses alive.

I made the dreadful mistake of trying to save money by staying at home and commuting. I don't see how I'm going to make any friends this way, as everybody seems to be having a riot of a time at halls and I have to piss home on the train at night.
