<p>Lets say i dont drink,smoke or hang out at clubs because i will be spending way to much time on the following: College work, Job, Other activites.</p>
<p>I mean dont your peers look down upon such a guy? I spent two years somewhere else and I dont have a girlfriend anymore. and i dont want one right now because I am too busy. </p>
<p>o yeah i am not a nerd.</p>
<p>bottom line WILL I SURVIVE COLLEGE LIFE?</p>
<p>yes
Just try to find your niche, it’ll take a little time, but it’ll be worth it. Join some clubs and hang out with people who share your ideas. Not drinking and smoking is not a big deal. Just don’t shut yourself out to the rest of world.</p>
<p>Eventually you’ll find a group who enjoys the same low-key social life that you do. But it will take effort on your part. You sound a lot like me, and I’m a girl who is extremely shy. It’s a little hard, but you have to put effort into finding where you fit; good friends do not magically appear. Take heart, you’ll find you place :)</p>
<p>you’ll survive. drinking can be good, but smoking and clubs are unnecessary. working hard and doing a good job will pay off later.</p>
<p>Once you find your niche (which, I promise, will include people like you) it will be all good. People don’t care wether you party or not. I will be spending 4-6 nights a week in rehearsals and performances, and I couldn’t be happier because that is my preference - I like it more than I like partying. It sounds cliche, I know, but just do what you love and things will fall into place.</p>
<p>ETA: about relationships, don’t sweat it. You’ll find someone who understands you. I know I would rather date someone who describes themselves as you do rather than someone who says they spend a lot of time drinking, smoking and clubbing. Not because I have anything against that, but because it’s not my scene. Everyone has their own scene and one is not better than another.</p>
<p>good advice</p>
<p>Not everyone in college parties 24/7.</p>
<p>I haven’t gone to any parties nor have I ever had alcohol or done drugs. I can assure you its easy to stay clean. Live in isolation and only talk to people you know and trust. Most people are evil and are up to no good.</p>
<p>I am just like you greenvison. You can survive college during the school year but if you’re in several activities like me it can be hard. Sometimes my clubs will have trips and I can think of a lot of others things I’d rather do than go dancing or getting drunk. I was alone in the hotel room most of the time…Well I just got back from another situation like this but I forced myself to go along with them to a stinky smokey night club. Just turned 21 not long ago so I just sat and drank apple martinis. My real friends at school and my roommates are pretty tame so I got lucky. We love (thrifty) shopping, bookstores and coffee shops :D</p>
