48 Hours 8/24/2001
Ok, fantastic. Linda's best friend is up here. That's no fair. If I had my best friend up here, or even just a casual friend, I would be a lot calmer and a lot more confident in meeting people.
I know where Eileen's room is but I'm afraid to knock on her door and be like, "Hi. You knocked on my door before and now I'm knocking back."
I was chillen w/ Sara and some other girl today. Sara and I went to the A&S orientation today. We met up with some girl and her guy friend. It's very hard to peg people up here. At home, I could tell almost automatically whether someone liked me or not. Sara stopped by my room to go to the orientation with me, but...I dunno. I get an odd feeling from her. I have too much free time on my hands.
I went to a health professions orientation after that. I sat with some random girl whose beeper and phone kept going off. It was almost all girls.
Some pretty cute guy just walked in my room. I got all happy for a second, figuring maybe he saw my cute sign outside my door and wanted to say hi. It turned out he was just a bored RA informing me of the comedy show that's playing agin.
At my George Mason program I was already friends with Tammy and Jesse the first night. Here I don't have anyone and it's absolutely terrifying. I see girls walking around with clumps of guys planning to go to frat parties. How the hell did you people meet that many guys so f**king fast? Nome of the poeple I've met so far are interested in frat parties. I don't want to go by myself because that's downright dangerous. Linda wanted to go to religious services tonight, but that just doesn't sound really appealing. Then again, my other option is staying home. It doesn't help that I'm at the ass end of my dorm, away from everything.
I desperately want to call home and ask my parents to pick me up. But then what will I tell people? Yeah I went to college--for 48 hours. And where will I go? Stonybrook? Suffolk Community College? I'm not sure which is worse, coming home or staying here. How come everyone thinks college is so great? Maybe I just have that type of personality that keeps others from liking me and vice versa. All I know is that so far college sucks. Maybe things will be better tomorrow, or when classes start.
Until later
