| Okay, for starters, do not judge your social aptitude on your Facebook page. That's what they want you to do. DO NOT GIVE IN.
Secondly, if you're that concerned, is there any way you can move into college?
If not (money reasons, etc.) then a few ideas:
- Join clubs. Awesome way to meet people with similar interests so you don't even have to spend the time sorting out your derro neighbors from the good ones. I doubt you've got classes from 9 to 5 every day with no time to go for a few hours every week (but correct me if I'm wrong).
- Get involved in a sport. Great way to meet people, keep fit and most will be the party-type.
- Join a study group.
- Ask those two friends if you can come along to any of their parties. You'll meet more people there.
- Be social with people in your classes and tuts. Do you have any group assignments throughout the year? Ask if people want to meet up at your house or somewhere in town to discuss the project. Go for some drinks or dinner or something.
- Every so often try crashing in someone's dorm room (obviously someone you're friends with). Plenty of socialising goes on in and around dorms without any parties or events being held so you'll meet plenty of people whether you want to or not.
Hope that helps in some way. |
