How much is too much?

I just can't seem to figure that one out! Someone please just tell me how much is too much?

Are they sentimental fools or am I emotionally stunted?

Come semester 6 and all people can talk about is how we won't all be together ever after this. It is true you know, we won't all be together in either of the next two semesters. So it really is the end of life as we know it. But i refuse to be the person who narrates a million anecdotes about how 'we' had fun in college and then end it with "Awwwww I'll miss that" or slip a "I'll miss you" into any conversation wherever it fits or even if it doesn't. It sucks the fun out of every moment we still have left. Ahhh and don't even get me started on those Gtalk status messages. Just have a look and you'll see what I'm talking about. I blame it all on the ridiculously early farewell BITS throws us. We are bid goodbye when have a good one year left in college, though we will stay on campus for only half of that time period. I hated the farewell for so many reasons. It was way too early for us and even worse for the dual degree students and one hell of a lot worse for the winter batch students. The only thing I remember clearly about the farewell was the number of pictures we took. It was nothing else. Come to think of it, I hated the pictures too. Farewell would have been a lot better without the food and the stupid dances and music performances. I'd have liked a nice day at the beach with music for a farewell. Why the hell are we in GOA??? The dress code was nice though. Oh i think i took a left turn and went the wrong way..... What were we talking about again? Ah right, I think people should quit being such emotional babies and start accepting change as fate unfolds what it has in store for us. Frankly speaking, I'd love some change thank you very much. This life here at BPGC is getting way too predictable with no power or water and all the classes and the tests. Its the same thing semester after semester. I'd be happy to get out of here. As for the people i befriended, I'm not giving up on you guys just yet. So no worries. The best part of this otherwise sucky phase in college is the number of trips we've made this semester. A typical trip will be planned when 4-5 of us are sitting together thinking about how boring the campus and discussing things from here and there. Someone yells "Let's go to Vasco and have dinner! I'm sick of this place. Besides it is out last sem together..." And off we all go to Vasco. The downside of these ever so frequent trips is the empty back account and a month to kill in godforsaken BPGC. I sometimes wonder if I should show a little more emotion. But then i realise there is way more emotion floating around without me contributing and I go back to being my hypocritical self. Cheers!
