As students look into their post-Harvard future, they must sometimes confront their separation from a lifelong best friend or significant other.
Dai and Sherbany, who are applying to jobs and internships in different regions of the United States, will likely go their separate ways this coming summer.
“[Our separation] will be a bittersweet moment,” says Dai. “But I’m looking forward to staying in touch.”
Sherbany says he is not worried about the future of his friendship with Dai.
“Every time we sit down, it’s like no time at all had passed,” he says.
On the other hand, longtime best friends Meryl F. Natow ’13 and Alexandra “Ali” P. Berman ’13 jokingly say that a future apart from each other is incomprehensible.
“I can’t remember the last time I wasn’t with Ali,” says Natow. “I can’t get rid of her.”
