Just dropping in to say hello!

Other than the grad cafe forum, this is the first forum I am a part of. 
I recently moved a little over 9 hours away from home and everything/everyone I know for graduate school. Although I do love where I live now, I am having a hard time transitioning. I am hoping writing how I feel and getting some good responses will help make things easier.


I am looking forward to trying this out 
Thanks for reading!
 
Change sucks sometime. .. even if we have control of it
Most of us resist it lol

Yes. Some days are better than others, but I am doing okay.
 
I've moved away from everything and everyone I had known before, too. Three times actually....at age 14, 17 and 29. It can be difficult in so many ways.....the old normal is gone and there's a new normal.....when you go back and visit, the home you knew may seem different because the place kept moving on into its own future without you being there and you yourself have moved into your own future....the old life that you knew will never be the same.
OK, that's how it was for me anyway.
Transitioning difficulty? Let the home you left become a fond memory and think of graduate school as a stepping stone to the rest of your life.
And then recall grad school fondly as well.
Be looking forward out the windshield more than backward in the rearview mirror.
