I’m just an incoming freshman, but my brother’s four years older than me…I learn a ton from him.

Ok, my brother was pretty lonely his first semester of college until he got involved on his dorm basketball team. He became really good friends with four or five guys doing basketball, and then met a crap-load of great people through them (one of which is his girlfriend of two years).

He’s a bit reserved around people he doesn’t know, so he comes off a bit stand-offish. But once you get him doing something he enjoys, he’s really outgoing and pee-your-pants-hilarious (I’m talking Jon Stewart/Stephen Colbert hilarious, here).

The best thing to do to make friends is get involved and let your guard down a little.
