For the first time ever, I will be taking off school and heading home for a weekend. One of the reasons for this trek back home is to see the coffee group together one last time before we split up for the next year. Emoinacloset is leaving for Korea on the 26th and I am leaving for China in late August. This weekend is going to be the last chance for all of us to get together before we all separate for a year.
The other reason is because Robocop has once again taken leave from MIT and seems to be more lost than ever. Robocop seems to be getting himself stuck into another rut and as friend I cannot let that happen. Hopefully together we can give Robocop get some direction and peace of mind. Most importantly I want to show him that we as friends are there for him and that he should not feel insecure about telling us anything and to definitely not cut us out of his life
This trip was arranged at the last minute and all the the expenses are coming out of my own pocket. Not to mention that I have to finish some projects early so I have time to meet up with everyone. But hey! Anything to see all of us together one last time.
Though a part of me wonders if my parents feel little resentment over all of this. My mom has asked me a couple of times to come and visit but I have always rejected her invitations. Now all of a sudden I am going out of my way to come back home for my friends. I fear it might give them the idea that I value my friends over my family, which is of course somewhat true, but I do not want them to know that.
Personally, I do feel a little guilty that my first trip back home is for the coffee group.
