Hello College

I should use this more. Let's see if I can post every day this month. This wonderful month of October.

I’m in College!!!!

WOW, this is weird, to say the least. I started with two roommates to one and one major to two. I started with Communication to Communication and English, well once I get the papers signed. 

But that’s not interesting… 

So how am I doing in terms of social life… 

Not well. I miss my friends back home so much. It took me over half my high school career to find my lovely friend Moe (that’s not her name, it’s a joke in our friend group that we are the three Stooges.) who read “Night Shift” with me and help start our own little book club during lunch. Then the whole four years to start hanging out with Larry (another alias) and that was the last two days of high school. We spent all of the summer hanging out and found out we have a lot in common. Now I’m three hours away from him. And an hour and a half with Moe. 

I’m not a social person and am having a hard time finding my people here and am terrified that it will take me just as long as it did in high school to make friends in college. 

I have met some people that seem to have the same belief and hobbies as me and hope I can make something out of it…

But… every time I get out of my comfort zone, I over-analyze the people’s facial expressions, and speech, and think I’m being annoying or am pushing myself in a situation that isn’t welcome to me or too excited… I don’t know…  I don’t want to be that annoying person who forces themselves in friend groups… 

I might be self-sabotaging myself a bit here. 

Please comment on what you think and I hope I can keep you posted.

Sincerely

Miss Midnight
