ive met a few people been to some parties and been involved in drama within the past nine-ish months i’ve been in college and these are my thoughts:
- (when it comes to people my age) everyone is the same as how they were in high school. no one’s really grown or mature, it’s just high school part two with less restrictions.
- alcohol isn’t really that cool anymore, i never liked drinking and im liking it less and less. Who i’m looking for at parties are the queers in the smoke circle….
- people who you think are cool are much more socially awkward and insecure than you think (and probably more than you!)
- you will get more queer due to abundance of exposure as compared to your red state hometown
Overall college is pretty chill and thank god for graduating high school

still in college right now. i grew up with parents i felt were pretty strict so being able to move away was good and bad. with such a new sense of freedom i kind of lost it and partied more than i could handle. my grades took a tumble, but i was the happiest i had ever been. obviously, my parents were not happy with that and i really had lock in on academics. although this new party lifestyle kind of caused a unnecessary amount of stress, i wouldn't change how i handled this at all. through this whirlwind of nights out, i met my closest friends and really discovered myself. my university has a large music scene and most of the parties i went to were also house shows. while i have severely grown out of the crazy partying, i still end up at these functions as a photographer for the artists or clubs throwing the events! i wouldn't have discovered my passion for photography without exploring the music scene the way when i first got here.

My college years are better than my stay at high school. I hated high school no matter how much I look at it. Here you'll find some friends that will probably stay. I can still connect with them but not really that close anymore. Maybe because most of them have families now and I'm not really a "friend" that hangs out.
I was able to learn a lot more about life during this because high school books are too controlled. And I was able to understand more about myself. I suppose it's because maturity really catches you during your college years. Trust me, you'll actually be wiser (more than you do at any school) when you finally got out and be able to face the real world.

You’ll never have opportunities like this again. Or maybe you will and this will just be a practiceround , I don’t know!
Try not to let otherpeople’s drinking keep you from doing things (until they become obnoxious, then go home)
Be yourself, do what you like and look for people tolove
Don’t assume your first roommate is your new best friend!
Honestly college people these days seem so much cooler than back in my day!
you’re gonna do great!
