I'm 18 and I'm a Senior in High School. I'll be going to College when I finish up my Home Schooling my senior year. My High School life has been nothing but hell. So I was wondering what College or university life was like.
Like are people more nicer and more mature. Are the girls much nicer? Would I adventually make friends with gamers and anime fans? Cant wait to go to College. I have a career goal to accomplish.
Join the anime club. Look for people in the right places. Try to be outgoing.
Everyone finds their niche. Generally people are more mature yeah, but meh. It all depends on the crowd you choose to hang with.
Same with girls, look for them in the right places. If you're looking for them at some frat party where everyone's dead drunk, well, you know what I mean.
I stress joining organizations you're interested in. You're bound to find people with similar interests + get involved in school.
Even people who like anime are too cool for the anime club.Quote:

What's college life like? Well, let me put it this way. You're going to be broke. A lot. Unless you can land a job on the side that pays over $15/hr, but that's highly unlikely.
Best advice is to take it like a man and not lose your freakin' MIND. Limit your spending...severely. Live like a poor man. Eat nothing but cheap-ass Top Ramen. And hope your parents are kindhearted enough to allow you to live with them rent-free.
lol my parents are cool like that. I'm 18 and a Senior in High School. They still want me to live with them rofl. I'll probably still be living with them until I graduate College and have enough money to buy my own house. I'm still single so that wouldn't be a problem.Quote:
