Hey there, folks.
I am now a college kid and a west coaster and incredibly lonely.
Haha. I am just awful at making friends. Sure, I have made some aquaintances, but everything is so awkward. I am not a good conversationalist and I am not outgoing and I am not a fan of huge crowds. I either feel like a lonely tag-along or simply a loner.
Like right now. It is 3:00 and I am sitting in my room. Everything just gets so overwhelming. I am not an extrovert and so much of new student orientation is geared towards those kinds of people.
Plus, most people here already know at least one person else their age to hang out with. The vast majority of students here are Californians, many of them from SoCal. I am such an outcast, shy and from Colorado. Haha.
But it's not bad. It is about what I expected and I am trying. It just have to take breaks in between the chaos and people people people.
Tonight we have a big bonfire at the beach and I am going, so I am conserving my energy for that.
This whole "getting to know you" thing is very painful for me, but I am not sorry to be here, and I know it will be better when classes start on Monday.
I have already aquired an admirer named Andy and he makes me uncomfortable. But it is sort of nice that I am not invisible to boys here. Maybe there is hope after all.
Anyway, my roommate is nice and I know we will get along fine, but she has a couple friends here already and they are pretty much inseparable. I know I am welcome to join them, but they kind of have attitudes and they act like they are too good for stuff, so they aren't that fun to hang around. I feel bad to say that, but it's true. I really like my roommate when it is just the two of us, though, so that's a positive thing and maybe she and her friend will change as the year starts.
I will post a picture of my room sometime soon. I am not quite done with it yet, so maybe I will do it tomorrow. I had to send home all but my accoustic guitar. My room is just very small and we did not get bunk-able beds, which really stinks. I am very sad for my loss, especially since I know that if we had bunkable beds or if I was in Klassen I would have been able to keep my guitars here. Oh well. Maybe next year. Other than that, I got everything in here and everything fits. Hurray! And I have my wonderfully comfortable desk chair that everyone in the world should be jealous of.
I want to keep writing because I haven't talked a whole lot in the past week, but I have little else to say and it would just be more rambling. I just thought I would post in case people were wondering if I was still alive or something.
I use the word "just" a lot. See above.
Okay. Talk to everyone later.
Oh, and I would like to conclude by saying Tea in Sea is better than most of your faces.
Also, my computer is very hot.
