Not only that but if you don't know anyone at your school it's really hard to motivate yourself to do anything at all. Almost flunked out of my first quarter at Davis because I was a transfer student and had no friends to talk to at Davis.
Yeah, it sucks being an introvert. I have such issues making friends.
A thread on reddit got me thinking about the "cutting in line" etiquette. If you're in a long line and waiting for a friend who would then obviously stand next to you because you're going to the whatever event together, is that really cutting? I am not talking about Curb's chat n cut, but the cases when you're actually waiting for someone.
Its not that bad, you get to spend a lot of time by yourself and if you're like me you just revel in your own awesomeness.
That's what I spend most of my time doing. I also spend a stupid amount of time on HF.

Nope. I only get annoyed by it when you're at the Fair or an amusement park and some ******-bag 7th grade girl waits in line for ten of her friends, who then cut in right before you get to the front.

You said you almost flunked out because you had no friends, at least that's the way you worded it. Maybe you meant it differently.
Yep, because I got depressed not having anyone to hang out with my first quarter. Being down in spirits will hurt your academics. Maybe you are different, but I need people to hang out with when I'm not doing school/work. I can spend a lot of time alone but I can't spend all of my time alone, otherwise I get depressed.
I would get "Rowdy" Roddy Piper a pair of special sunglasses that reveal the secret alien menace invading earth for Christmas. That and some Bubblegum, cuz he's all out.

Owing to the fact the fight scene in South Park between Timmy and Jimmy in the scouts episode was a shot-for-shot remake of the fight between Roddy Piper and Keith David in They Live, here's a yt of the They Live fight with South Park audio.

Aww poor guy, you can come to Sacramento and watch me play SWTOR if you want.

Based on my undergrad experience/loneliness vs. my pharmacy school experience so far, this is very good advice.

I've found better success to make friends at work instead of school. Though to be fair I've only ever done half of a semester of junior college on two separate occasions, and the place I worked at had about 150 people per shift. Hopefully when you get into the work force, or start logging in more hours if you're already employed, things will seem a lot better.
I got that already! Anyhow, I need some help guys! Can you give tips for me because I am going to college and I need some tips in what to do to become successful.

Oh, they already are. It was a rough first couple of quarters but after making a couple friends in Davis academics and happiness level have been a lot higher.
SSG I suggest you look for some kind of club or do social events asap when you get to college, don't go into college thinking you'll be fine without it like I did. I always saw myself as someone who didn't need many friends before going to college and found out the hard way that long distance friends with people back home wasn't enough to keep my spirits up.
That's what I spend most of my time doing. I also spend a stupid amount of time on HF.
But I only had that problem the first quarter here.
