Join clubs and sports. I met almost all of my friends and gfs through my club

Don't live on campus a minute longer than you have to

Cook your own food ($100/mo vs $400). No, you don't have to "learn to cook". Anyone can grill chicken and boil pasta and drown it in your favorite sauce.

You probably have some semblance of hope and excitement. Dont worry, eventually all strong feelings will be drained and you will be left a husk like the rest of us.

this is just my opinion but even if you enjoy anime/gaming, i would suggest not isolating yourself with it by getting into anime/gaming clubs.

college is a good time to branch out & pretty much the last chance you'll get to explore yourself freely before real life kicks in, so you dont want to waste it in a comfort zone with low effort passive activities

What's your major, TC? A LOT of people regret their major. My advice is seriously look into what kind of jobs you can get with a major like that.

Like I picked Wildlife Biology because my advisor said "pick something interesting to you!!". Well 99% of biologists sit in a lab with no windows getting paid $40k a year, and even field biologists are only in the field like 1/10 times, and even then you never end up studying interesting animals, you study slugs and roaches and small birds usually.

Eh, depending on what youre open to teaching, getting the education degree can be a lot more useful. My parents and brother were/are teachers so Ive heard the debate. With English, a lot of high school programs integrate it with history so those districts tend to prefer education degrees in those places.

my wife is a HS english teacher, she says that the english BA is much more valued than an education degree if you want to teach at that level. if you want more specific knowledge in relation to education then go for a MA, it gets you an automatic pay increase as well

Most other people there will also be new and confused and won't know what to do. Don't be afraid to go up to someone and ask if they want to study or get food or something like that. And don't be afraid to talk to upperclassmen because they'll be willing to help out and give advice.

Also back to asking people to chill, its hard as shit and weird but you literally just have to ask strangers who are heading to eat if they wanna eat with you, strangers in athletic clothes if they wanna go ball with you, strangers with games if they wanna play with you, etc.

Its a lot like being a 4 year old at a park except with more boners. Its definitey weird and a strange time for people.


This. Everyone else is also finding themselves and confused and trying on different personalities. No one has life figured out yet, even though other students will pretend that they do
