College has been good so far. The people here are friendly and kind, but it's still not the same as being around people who know me. People who know how I act when I am stressed, what makes me happy, what my favorite foods are. People who just get me.
I know that the relationships I am building right now will blossom into deeper relationships after a time, but right now, I miss my people.
Going off to college was a rough experience for me at first, too. People there were very nice, but I struggled to feel like I fitted in and I didn't feel like I had any close friends there at first. I was a transfer student, so I was only there for two years, but by the time it was time to graduate, I was really close to a lot of people. I miss it more now than I ever thought I would.
ReplyDeleteHang in there. It'll get better.
Thank you so much for the encouragement, Emily! It's always nice to know that others have gone through the same things.
