Wheres this college experience thing im supposed to be having?....so the other day i was early to my psych class. the other class had gotten out a little early so i went in the class and sat down. people started coming in shortly thereafter. the teacher comes in and is unable to get to her powerpoint, she asks us to wait a bit while she uses a students flash drive to get it off her computer your probably wondering why im telling yall this, it is kinda boring....just a preface....but i have a point while the teacher was out everyone starts talking to their friends. chatting about other classes, room mates, goings on around campus. what am i doing you ask? im sitting there. talking to no one. why? well, i dont really have friends at my school. sad, i know. but its hard to have friends when you dont live at wesleyan. i commute. im there for class and then i go home. in warner robins. ok, i have friends in some of my classes, but we talk in class about this and that. and thats it. we dont hang out afterwards, we dont hang out at night. nothing. i have no idea whats going on at my own school. so what am i supposed to talk about?? everyones talking about what happened the night before or how much fun they had at some club or something that happened in their dorm. i have no clue what they are talking about. i feel like an outcast. and it sucks. i drive my car around campus and see people walking to class together, talking, laughing. i walk to class alone. i long for the college experience that everyones been talking about. i hear people talk about how great college is and how much fun they have and dorm life and all that. i dont know anything about it. i wish i did. i want a chance to actually enjoy college. all my of siblings...every last one....got the chance to go off to college. where am i? at home with the parentals. and im not gonna lie, it sucks sometimes. i want the opportunity to go off to college!! why am i being forced to stay at home??? it just doesnt seem fair. |
