Ya, but afterwards you will still miss it a bit compared to UBC or SFU.

Very true on the easier transition to Uni, get's you prepared for the whole 180 degree change that you would experience from HS to UNi. Now that you mention it.. i think i will miss the class size and the overall friendly and close relationship you will develop with the prof and classmates. When i was at UBC profs gave little to no care for you. All the teaching was done by the profs and if you had questions it would be the TA's that answer them... so the relationship is very distant, and teaching methods would obviously be different as well. But College it's very close, just like HS. ya, i will miss it.. but reason i hate it so much is cause i'm going no where in the college. My courses are so random... more like i have no objective in the school other then getting high grades to transfer out ? lol feels empty and pointless when i got to school.. i don't want that feeling.

Good luck!

Ya I totally agree, i wish i had taken some time off. since gr 10 i haven't had a summer to myself lol. It's been school, summer school, school, summer school. Right now I'm taking 3 courses at Langara as summer classes. I only have about 2 weeks off and then class again in September. *sigh*
but yesh good luck and have fun to everyone going to langara this September, school is amazing even the courses, and everyone is friendly.
