I'm doing okay. I caught up with old friends and even made a few new ones. I'm just sad because I ended up staying home on a Friday night. What normal college student does that with no choice?
Does this mean I'm a loser? I sure feel like one.

No, of course not. I think an important thing to remember is that everyone feels uncertain or insecure at times, even the ones that seem super confident. A good friend of mine is one of these uber confident people... you know, five people surrounding her at any given time, gorgeous, funny, etc... and she gets incredibly insecure too. I was totally shocked, but some people are just better at hiding it than others. Lots of times, it's only when you become really close to a person that they admit it.

Like someone else said - sincerity is key. If you say something you don't mean just to appease other people, you will probably regret it later. I know this might not sound that helpful, but trust yourself. Sometimes your judgment is better than you think.

“Go confidently in the direction of your dreams. Live the life you have imagined.” --Henry David Thoreau

"It is never to late to be what you might have been." --George Eliot

Not at all a direct answer to your question, but your question reminded me of these two quotes-- two of my favorites. And they ARE somewhat relevant, right?

'I have improved a lot since this thread began. Yet I wonder if this is it. I'm satisfied with my life now, but if it stays just like this months from now I will be sad.
A week ago, I finally came out of my shell. A personality that I didn't know I had just bursted out of me and everyone loved it. I ended up making friends. I'm not to the point where I can call and Facebook them regularly, but I feel like I'm nearly a part of their group. I just hope they're not one of those people who come and go in my life or drift away from me. I'm afraid of the momentum dying.
My social life is the best it has ever been, yet I keep thinking, "Is that all there is?" '

how did you meet these new friends?
