I hate when people whine and complain on their blogs, that’s why I’m glad I don’t have to read what I write.
I cant believe it. It’s the 5th week and I am BORED. My whole routine consists of going to uni and then…coming home. I barely do anything on the weekends. It’s pathetic. I seem to be severly lacking in the friends department. I have about 2 friends, and a few other people who I pass by and say hi to every week. I thought that by now I’d have a group of cronies together. Not just friends but, you know, mates. It’s not that I’m anti-social but even in tutes and lectures, you say hi to the person next to you and it pretty much peaks at that. Then it’s goobye. Sigh. It’s getting to the point where I’m starting to find it really difficult to study because I know at the end of all that reading and researching, there isn’t gonna be any party or get-together or beer-drinking at the pub. There’s no reward. Study study study, then sleep, then go to school and come home and repeat. I know, isn’t it just riveting?! If things get any sadder around me a funeral might just break out.
In closing I just hope that this is going to be a temporary thing and that in a few months or hopefully a few days, I’ll be looking back at this blog sheepishly, in total embarassment at how whiney and pathetic I came across. Hopefully by then there’ll be a new entry about how I need to stop hanging out with my huge circle of friends, or how I need to cut down on the parties and booze conferences because it’s getting too much. Now there’s a post I look forward to writing.

I’m exactly the same! So far, I’ve made one friend, one sort of friend and several acquaintances that I really don’t like that much…
In the first 2 weeks, I made an effort to sit next to new people and say hi, but that was really pointless cos then they just kind of disappeared and i’ve never seen them again. I assumed that once tutes started, it’d be better but people kept on moving in and out of them and now that our tute classes have been finalised…I just can’t be bothered.
I know exactly what you mean. I feel like I’m studying all the time and that I haven’t got to know many people from university yet. But that’s the good thing about college – there’s people around and things going on all the time.
I think that everyone’s still trying to settle in and to find a balance between study and social activities. Hopefully after the Easter break things will start to look up for you. 🙂
Have hope! It was over a year before I found a place to hang out (and people who tolerated me) outside class. Of course, that may not be entirely comforting… but the point is, it’ll happen eventually 🙂
