Hi, how is your life?? I am terrified to go to college and preseason Friday. I legit cry all day and every night. lol zero control over my emotions
Hello my darling, hello my honey, hello my ragtime gaaaallll~
But thank you for dropping in again lol! It has actually been good, better than I thought. Quite busy, but good. I was utterly terrified to come to college myself. Still am kind of nervous, because obviously I’ve just BARELY grazed the surface; I’ve only been here for about a week.
But everyone has been friendly, sociable, and I’ve managed to make quite a few friends simply by picking up the courage to introduce myself and say hello.
The things I miss most are my alone time and of course my family and friends back home, but it’s really not AS bad as I thought lol. I thought I was going to be so much unhappier and scared, but I adjusted quite quickly.
Because tbh, everyone is in the same boat. There are people coming from all over trying to adjust to a new life, and hardly anyone knows each other or what they’re….doing really haha. So it gives everyone an opportunity to say hello and be social.
Like I was so genuinely surprised. People say hi when I walk through the dorm hallways, in the bathroom, at meals…People just randomly start conversations…The best example was yesterday when I was waiting for my roommate to come out of her class. I was sitting outside alone, when a girl sat next to me. I didn’t talk because her friend was with her, but then when her friend left to do something, she actually turned to me and started talking! And because both of our roommates told us to head back to our dorms because they were running late, we ended up walking and talking together.
It’s just unusually amazing lol. And there are just so many people around here, more so than high school of course. So that means a larger possible percent of people who share your same likes and interests. I met a bunch of theatre people tonight for example, and I think it was the most comfortable I’ve been all week. Because we all shared a common interest and were just so…FREE around one another.
So sweetie honey sugar love, you definitely have the right to be emotional, but do not worry. So many people are going to be sharing the experience with you, and you’ll always have someone to turn to, whether it’s a random person down the hall or your roommate. And of course you can always talk to me about it, and we can like, share things, because we’re both babies lol!
But yeah, don’t worry, you’ve got this <3
