You see, I'm the type of person that is the social butterfly. I try talking to everyone in the group. I try to get close to people and try to have time with others. I just crave to get to know people. And I knew this summer would be a little bit crappy because of graduation, friends moving on, and the breakup with Rex. But I was distracted...I replaced my own weakness with a...temporary manner. But I had this mindset that college would be the coolest place ever. I'd get to meet new people...I'd love my classes. It was just going to be this fantastic experience.
But here's the thing... nobody really socializes at FCC...and the classes are alright and all but isn't it the people that really create the experience? I was overly excited when one of the cool girls from my writing class and I walked together because in a way I felt like I finally starting to to get somewhere with the new friends thing...but it's just not working.
It's like everyone is in their own little world there. For some reason the first thing I picture of is a world where everyone has their own bluetooth in their ear and are all walking the same way at the same time, talking in the same voice tone about the same things. And I'm the one taking out the bluetooth watching them all thinking, "What is going on here?"
Now you are reading this and probably thinking... omg... is she actually serious? And I totally am. I have felt this way for so long and I'm grabbing onto that last strand of thread trying to hold on. When I am with people the thoughts are temporarily hidden away but when its times like these where I spend hours alone... with no one that it hurts.
And just to let you know I'm not suicidal or anything. Those of you that know me very well I think know that I could never feel that way but I do know there needs to be something that changes soon.

can you make it to Re:action tonight?
can you share what your blog was about?
i think that the majority of people your age feel the same way and that's why so many of them end up at the parties, doing the things they never thought they'd do...
because someone was willing to hang out with them.
we're rolling out the next phase of re:action tonight and I think you'll be able to be a bigger part of it! hopefully you can make it.
as a fellow student, i agree with you about fcc. alot of people dont socialize there. since i am somewhat outgoing myself, it was a little bit of a change. however, i think you will find that not everyone is completely unsocial there. good luck in college!
