I have just woken up, it is 1:45 in the afternoon and I am still very tired. I am thinking about doing some more volunteer work throughout the summer and maybe do a bit of travelling up the coast to maybe New York and the Jersey Shore. I don’t really have any friends to go with because during high school in the midst of my senior year, my friends of almost eight years said they didn’t like me anymore and as a result dropped me right before the holidays (That’s a story for another time). I have some people that I am still friends with, but they have their own stuff they are doing this summer to prepare for college. Has the summer leading up to freshman year of college always felt like this for everyone? You feel like you don’t have a purpose, because if you were still in high school then you would be planning out summer work and doing cute things with friends to prep for the incoming school year. I feel like I have no purpose, obviously I have to prepare for college and buy decorations and sheets and books and whatnot, but I feel like it is too early to start doing that. What do you guys think? I am very type A and like to plan everything out down to the last second. Most people my age are not like this at all so like when I talk about it I am met with oh i don’t need a list, or oh I’ll just figure it out. I physically for the life of me cannot just figure it out, I NEED a plan of every little thing I need. At the end of the day though my birthday is nine days away and nothing really matters after 18 anyways. My new roommate is super fun and is extroverted but not in like a go out and party every night type of way just like in a few parties here and there like me. She likes going out on walks, personal time, and people (just not in the dorm, but honestly I’m the same way). I feel like we will get along pretty well but like always I am scared that she is absolutely gonna hate me, like obviously I know she won’t but I am permitted to my irrational fears just as much as the next person. I get to live in the new dorms on my college campus with AC, modern kitchens, and get this there are only two other dorms buildings near mine. Alright that is all I can think of for now. Tell me some of your college roommate horror stories, stuff I need to pack but most people forget, and tips and tricks to survive freshman year especially the first few weeks.
All the best,
The Future Messy College Girl
