I'm kinda nervous about this. My first semester will begin on August and I'm just wondering about how to make new friends in the college. Can you guys tell me your first day as a Freshmen?

Oh, and HELLOOOW everyone I'm new here, nice to meet you all:wave::wave:
 
You'll be fine. Everybody is super friendly and outgoing their first week of every year. Just hang out with some kids on your floor, be friendly, and you'll make a handful of friends right away.

I ended up with 8 girls in my room playing apples to apples my Freshmen year. My floormates thought I was a pimp or something.(!)

lol Thank you so much!(*8*)
 
Consider it an adventure...of the best kind. Unless you're going to a Community College or two-year college in the same city or county you went to high school, nearly everybody you meet will be "new" to you.

Just being yourself will work wonders. You'll definitely find that you'll run into people with the same topics of interest as you have, and no doubt you have a different viewpoint or experience to contribute.

If you're one who enjoys being around people (you weren't specific about that), don't be the least bit surprised if you find yourself fitting in entirely. I assume you're going to a University, and probably living in a dormitory the first year, which is a very common requirement. Few upperclassmen live in the dormitories (sometimes the R. A. on your floor is an example of that), which means that you'll be surrounded by dozens of other people on your floor who are in the same situation as you.

Are you going to college "far away" from home?

A big welcome to you here!!

Thank you Frank:D! I am actually from Bangkok but just move here to live with my cousin in Orange county hehe. My college is in Newport beach, which isn't far from my house.
PS: I'm thinking about moving out to live in the dorm too!
 
dunno

maybe go rounds says Hiiiii ta everyone ans dress ins nice skin tight silk?

sure lot a ways they educates ya knows

Well the university I used ot go to always had events. Once a month in the courtyard they would have like rock band, karaoke, these inflatable things, food, etc. I'm sure where you go they'll also have clubs and other events :)
 
If it's at all practical for you, live in the dorm. It's a great place to hang out and meet lots of different kinds of people. Some of them will get to be your friends without your even thinking about it.

The clubs are a good idea, too. I made a number of close friends through a club.

I was a theater major, so we used the green room as a tiny student lounge. We got to know each other extremely well.
 
Yeah I suggest living in the dorms the first year. This is how I met a lot of people. I always thought the people that commute were missing out.

And college was completely different from High School to the above poster!
 
College and high school were nothing alike for me, haha. College blows high school out of the water.
 
Get a Facebook! I've kept in touch with a lot of people I met at orientation recently through facebook. AND GOOD LUCK!
 
Don't worry about making friends as a Freshmen in college.

IF YOU'RE HOT THEY WILL COME TO YOU!
 
I was a Freshmen at the University of Alabama back in 1982. At first I really didn't fit in since I had a spiked punk haircut and wore a black leather jacket. LOL. Anyway, I joined the staff of the student movie theater and met lots of very cool more "alternative" people. From there, you meet friends of friends and your social circle widens. I also hung out at a cool little indie record store.

So, look into student clubs and see if there's anything that interests you.
 
Wow! Thank you guys! I didn't expect to have much replies and advices <3.(*8*)
 
Hey, I just wanted to say, I'm in the exact same position as you... You're not alone! :) You can be my friend!!! :kiss:
 
Hey there. I was very nervous about this when I started my summer program at my college. It being my first college experience and living in a dorm for the summer, I didn't know anyone or anything. But honestly, even coming from a shy and sort of a socially awkward person, my worries were very irrational. Maybe it was the icebreakers during class, but I definitely had an okay time with the new people.
Just get involved in conversations, maybe ask someone where a building is. "I'm ____ by the way!". Everyone is usually friendly and open to new people at college. There will be those people with the judgmental, immature temperament in class but you just ignore them. It's been only two weeks and I've had new friends in my dorm room just to hang out and get to know each other more. I've never had a better experience.
Don't be nervous about it.
