Part of NYUAD No One Talks About
Today was a mix of "see you later" and "goodbye" as my bestfriend, roommate, and partner in crime, Juan, waved goodbye. The semester wrapped up for him, but what's on my mind isn't the break – it's what comes after. Get yourself ready for it: Study Away.
We've all heard about the cool opportunities Study Away throws your way, but let's spill the tea on the less sparkly side. It's not just about new adventures; it's also about friends turning into long-distance buddies and partners playing hide-and-seek.
So, why the drama? The answer is simple – Study Away. Juan won't be around me listening to my problems for at least a year (unless we visit each other during breaks). It's like a friend version of hide and seek, but with a much longer waiting time.
We're all set for a rollercoaster of emotions. Juan's off to explore the academic world, and I'm left here, wondering how our friendship is going to handle this long-distance thing. Our cozy room chats will now be on pause, and our hangouts will be replaced by virtual catch-ups.
NYUAD's best-kept secret? The unspoken tale of Study Away that pulls friends and partners in different directions. Sure, it's sad, but it's also a chance to flex our friendship muscles. We'll navigate the ups and downs, adapt to the changes, and eagerly await the reunion that's bound to be epic.
So here's to Juan, to the memories we've made, and the adventures that await. It's a temporary goodbye, but the welcome-back party is going to be legendary. Until then, it's emojis and video calls keeping the friendship flame alive! 🌟👋
