mg85 - I spoke with my professor (I'm not behind in work just attendance) and told her I had a personal problem and she was completely understanding. I go to school in the US at one of the biggest party schools, which probably didn't help my problem.
Day 3 is chugging along great and now in my second class of the day, then a meeting tonight. Keep going everyone!
One concern I have is about socializing up here. It is all centered around parties and bars and I know I'm not ready to be in that situation - it's way too soon. What could I do so that I'm not stuck in all weekend bored and alone which would probably lead to depression?
