Should I transfer after 1 or 2 years of cc?

I'm enrolled in my CC and I keep telling myself it's gonna be fun. I've only had 2 days of classes, but recently visited my friends at their dorms (at a huge nearby university, currently famous for football at the moment) and a huge feeling of depression came over me. That could've been me! I could've been their neighbors living with a possible new friend. But no, I decided to go to CC and get into a school I really want to go to. So here I am. My first weekend of college, bored as hell, sulking about my life.

Originally, I was going to ride out CC for 2 years and transfer afterwards, but seeing my friends living it up at a university made me jealous and I'd like to transfer out ASAP.

Is it wise to transfer after only 1 year of CC? What are the pros and cons of transferring after 1 year and after 2?

Will I have enough college 'background' for them to judge me on after 1 year? Will they still look at my HS transcript closely? (which isn't bad, at all)
Are SATs going to be a big factor? Should I take them again? What about scholarship opportunities?

OR

Should I just suck it up and do my 2 years of CC? I was told it would 'fly-by', but it seems like forever now. And if they do 'fly-by', so will my opportunities to go out and make friends.

I've only had 2 days of CC, but I can't see myself making lasting friendships! A lot of people already know each other (I don't know HOW... seriously) or a lot of people just leave to go home after class.

I'm just really concerned about the social aspects because my friends who went away are living it up, and I'm living it up in my parent's house.
