I feel like I can finally start fresh, and maybe it'll be like you said - I can get closer to my sisters later in life, when we have more in common.

I would also like to apologize for any immaturity in any of my posts. I have been forced to mature very quickly in the past couple of years, and I often help friends and family with their personal issues, being forced to stay strong and mature the entire time. When I get upset, as I have been while posting here, I lose that, and have some immature tendencies, and I know those can be difficult to deal with sometimes. When I'm upset, acting a little immature is the only way I can really act my age, rather than acting more mature. So I would just like to apologize for that.

Hang in there.

BTW, you might find that a different college/university is a better fit for you overall. I attended a small LAC and a regional university as an undergrad. I had a lot more in common with students at the university than I did with the students at the small LAC. Your fit problem with your chapter might be reflective of an overall fit problem with your school.
