First: join the skype group, it directly solves this problem
I am doing well. I'm finding time to work on Blizz-ABS, start my research project for my masters thesis, play soccer, and hang out with my lab group all on top of classes, so I'm pretty happy with my schedule. My roommate is getting on my nerves, because he is really into singing/songwriting, and although he uses headphones, I can hear him pressing the keys on his keyboard quite loudly at all hours of the day and night. On top of that, he is pretty messy, and I have to do 99% of the cleaning. Besides that, we mostly stay out of each others way and get along well in person, so hopefully the next year won't be too bad. I definitely intend to get a single room as soon as possible though.
What about you? How many more years until your degree? Do you know what you want to do after school yet?
I'll have to keep the Skype group in mind. I used to use MSN a lot, but I haven't pulled it out for a while. Maybe I'll make a Skype and join you. Actually, I think I can just sign in with my Microsoft email thing, right? I'll give that a try sometime.
I know what you mean with the roommate trouble. So far I've avoided bad roommates, but it's something that I've always dreaded. That's why I'm in a single room this year - four single rooms to one "apartment," with a kitchen and a couple of bathrooms. It's nice to have a little bit of personal space, though of course the trade off is that it's a little smaller and a little more pricey.
This is technically my junior year, because of credits from high school, but because I still need to complete quite a few classes for my major, it's really more like my sophomore year. After I graduate, I think it would be fun to go into programming. I know I'm not very good at it yet, but that's what the classes are for, right? Haha. I love programming when I understand it, but when there's something that I can't get to work the way that I'd like, it's really frustrating. I particularly think game programming would be a lot of fun, but there probably aren't as many open positions that are specifically in the gaming industry.

I know what you mean haha.. Sometimes I'm not on here for a bit for the same type of reason, and even when I do log in, all I do is check messages quickly. I'm actually trying to find a job, so that's what takes up most of my time nowadays. I'm actually interested to know if you have decided what you want to do once you obtain your degree as well. Has it changed since you first started towards getting it?
I've always kind of been on the programming track (when I was really little, I wanted to be a doctor, but that was a really, really long time ago. Haha.) I didn't have any trouble choosing Computer Science for my major, and haven't ever thought about changing it. Of course, there's always the chance that I'll get sick of it and look into other things. Who knows?

Winkio already said it, the Skype group will solve half your problem. Whenever you feel lonely, just drop a message there. Usually at least one other person is online.
I'm great. Work at Cateia's good, having fun in life, I'm about to finish King of Booze for iOS, etc. So it's great as always with me.
I always try to keep in mind your advice to stop being sad and be awesome instead.
I'll have to give the Skype group a try - it sounds like it might be a good way to keep in touch with people without being too much of a time sink.

I've been the same way rose with the lonely and busy thing, but I have a lot of time on the weekends lol...and I spend it all by myself ._.
No worries rose, as long as CP is here it doesn't matter if you visit it all the time. I've been gone for months on end and then come back as if I never left lol. You should get pen pals you could write to each other and mail it haha then you would have something to look forward to
That's a good idea. Maybe I'll find someone with whom to write back and forth.
