About This Quote

When you’re a university student, you occupy a special place in the world. Yours is a world of your own, a bubble of time separate from everything before and everything after. You’re not really living on this planet. You’re kind of living inside your own little world.

And whether it’s good or bad, there’s a lot of freedom in that. But at the same time it does seem like you’re isolated from the rest of the world for awhile, and that can be hard to accept or understand until you do it.
