Let's see, what do we have-

Close relationships
Living for a while in a different culture
Drama studies
Drugs
Meeting interesting people
Experiencing total solitude
All sorts of "big experiences

Make the following beautiful words by Goethe to your life maxim:

Sich das Halbe zu Entwoehnen
Und im Ganzen, Vollen, Schoenen
Resolut zu leben!
