    Hey!
    Well, I like going to movies, museums... things like that. I'm not really a bar person but I don't mind going for a drink from time to time. How about you?

    Hello out there...

    I never realized how difficult being a grad student is socially. You get so busy with your studies... and work... and life... there isn't much time to meet new people.

    Other individuals are looking for friends on this thing but they are mostly undergraduate (which is fine!) but I know they aren't in the same space as I am in their lives.

    I have no social life. Any other grad students in the same spot?

    Suzanne...
