Transfer?

Charlene and I have been talking a lot and neither of us really feel "at home" here. I really like some of the people I've met here, but we both feel like we don't exatly fit in. Buff State is pretty much mini NYC. Pretty much every 9 out of 10 kids here are from the city. It's not a bad thing, it's just that both of us are small town white girls lol. I have fun with Raisa and Lisseth and Amanda and Noemi, but they'll be telling a story and start out in English and randomly switch to Spanish for the most important part...I took Spanish for about 5 years, but I can never keep up with them. Char's first choice school was Brockport and I've started looking into it and it seems like a really great school. So we are thinking about transferring there. We'll probably finish out the year here and go to Brockport next year, but if it gets to be too much we might transfer next semester. I'm almost positive I could wait it out, but I don't really want to. It's not that I don't like the school itself, I love it. It's just that I don't really go out all that much unless Char and I are going somewhere or if I go to Kristin's room. I have homework and stuff to do so it's not like I sit in my room alone and do nothing all the time, but I just don't feel comfortable with a lot of the people here. Not to mention, at Brockport I'd be about an hour closer to home, granted it would still be around 3 and a half to 4 hours...it's less than the 5 to Buffalo. This is all still tentative, but I'm seriously considering it. Oh and Brockport has the best food in the SUNY system, so that's a plus (especially with how much Char and I eat lol)

Just a random note: I want to go home for a visit. It's been about a month and I'm starting to get homesick. I really didn't want to miss Mary's party yesterday. I'm going to try to come home sometime in October with Amarius or take a bus or train or something. (whether mom likes it or not :-P )
