It's very very awkward....That being said I wish so many people weren't going. It reminds me of high school and that makes me want to throw up.

A lot of people from my high school also came to McMaster with me last year, and I hardly saw any of them during the year. Granted we were in different programs, but Mac is a pretty big place. You will meet a lot of new people and it wont feel so much like highschool!  |

I'm glad That's one of the reasons I'm relieved to be taking Business. Yes, I know it's foolish to base your career on trying to avoid people you would rather dunk in itch cream but there were other reasons too, so don't base your decision on me kids
I didn't want to run the risk of seeing the same people in the same courses...(Life Science kids) though I am taking 3 Life Science courses .
One of the reasons I feel glad about my choice to pick Mac despite...the...inter esting...high schoolers I know going there is because of the warmth I saw on MacInsiders. Even before the IA system and I think it's fair to say, despite it's introduction, people are just so happy to help...with no personal advantage being gained.
That's a nice thing to see.

You can actually meet the creator (Chad) at the MacInsider's get-together hosted by Mike (Mowicz). That is, I think Chad is going to be there. Not sure if the get-together has been finalized yet but the date is Sept 19th and we are tentatively meeting in MUSC at 5pm going to BP or 1280.
At any rate, just keep your eyes open for an announcement.

Aww you guys. -hugs- MacInsiders is totally awesome. I would have been totally lost last year, and this year too a bit, if I hadn't been on this amazing site. Everyone here is so nice and helpful that it's honestly a bit surprising. MI was one of the reasons I came to Mac, and I believe it is like that for a lot of other students as well. So Cheers! To a wonderful site. :] <3
