Not done with college but:

- On the Computer Science track. I don't absolutely love it but it's not mind-numbingly boring either. I get to do it, enjoy myself a bit, and save the stuff I love as something I don't have to do as a job, like writing.

- School I go to is close enough that I can see my family when I want/need to but far enough that I can have some space for myself, haha. The people here are mostly 'meh' but you can make friends anywhere, in my opinion. Just have to find the right people in the right places. So I guess in that sense it was a 'good choice.'

- I don't party at all, but that's just because that's the type of person I am. Don't drink alcohol or do any type of drug. That makes me boring to a lot of the people here, actually. One side-effect of weed, apparently, is the fact that you can't shut the fuck up about it. You can work hard and play hard, so as long as you don't go overboard, I wouldn't worry that much.

You'll probably switch majors at least once. Probably twice. Everyone will look like they have it figured out. They don't.
