Hell yes.

What university is this again? Because I'm gonna go there now.

Yeah, it's the whole flexibility of your majors that is the main difference with your system and ours. I think it's better. I tried to change course last year and had to drop out of my uni and reapply. So basically wasted a year just becuase they wouldn't let me switch!
You're lucky you're not too far away. I do like having my own room, and it's really pretty ^_^ I'm ringing up some different unis tomorrow though, to see if I can transfer. I'm not optimistic about this at all, but I'm wishing I stayed closer to home SO much. It's not about leaving my family or homesickness, I just don't want to live in student accommodation and the only way to avoid this is to commute to uni, so live close. Honestly don't know what to do if they say no tomorrow...I think I'll break down and cry probably.
I'm not a stereotypical student, so I don't fit in with this environment at all. I know it's only been two days, but I moved out into student accommodation lat year too, and that didn't end well. Been regretting my decision for ages now.

Still, I know how you feel, I feel kind of strange adapting to student life. I'll try to act like myself and chime into conversations... but then no one responds or laughs. If one of them starts a conversation, everyone else somehow carries it along. Ugh, it seems my awkwardness has returned.
Still, things could look up. Once classes officially start, I might actually meet other internet/game-savvy people... or so I hope. Also, I'm lucky I live in the honors floor. People are already being kicked out of their dorms for drinking. Idiots.

Yes! I really want to meet some gamers, but the only gaming society they have seems sort of more Call of Dutyish than GOOD games :P
Totally forgot about the US drinking law being different. That would benefit me so much haha, although I guess most students still drink a lot, and it's easy to get hold of? It was easy when I was under 18 at least...

Oh my gosh.
They're annoying to the highest level.
And this girl who sits next to me in band.
Such a kiss up.
And everybody has a Facebook. Except for me. Even though they're 11 or 12. It makes no sense whatsoever.
And my friends from last year doesn't even talk to me anymore.
So now I'm a loner~
I don't really talk to anyone~
I just want my nerdy buddies from last year T__________T
Oh, and I think a teacher actually doesn't like me.
That's never happened before.
Oops.
fdaljflksa; Procrastination. I need to start my L.A. essay and my S.S. project.
Welp, school calls.
Annoying people yaaaaaay .______.

Anyway, I actually found another film school (I'm going for a film career) in my tiny, tiny country, and it's weird that I never heard of it before... you live on the school, they send you abroad within 3 weeks to film some stuff, and they pay for food and what not on the school. It actually sounds pretty descent, but my plan was to work for a year or two before I would continue my studies...
..and then maybe find a film school in England..
..or somewhere else just for the heck of it..
..but this is something happening right here, right now!
what to do, what to do.. hmm

You should take the opportunity, definitely! Why did you want to work before carrying on with your studies? Just to save some money up? Nothing wrong with doing it now. Keep us updated?
And...no I don't
I really don't like it. I just feel so alone when I'm there! I'm coming home every chance I get then I don't have feel lonely . It's so annoying because for like 90% of students, uni is the best years of their life. I've been twice now and never liked it lol, maybe I'm just not meant for uni...

I wouldn't mind telling you, but it's not something I want to share with just every random person and lurker out there 
I'll keep you all updated on what I choose to do though (only if anyone gives a damn of course 
). As for you: keep giving it a chance. Trust me, you will REGRET it so much if you ever find yourself giving up on meeting people and getting along with everyone. Even if it feels like no one cares, just don't give up, because then that'll end up being the very reason why you can't get along with anyone. Trust me, I've been there. I had a very rough second year at my gymnasium, only to notice that I've given up on people, and I had a blast the third year. The first year I started off optimistic and happy, but ended up pretty pestimistic. A lot of people just need time to feel comfortable around one another, and then you might end up feeling lonely. And even if that's not the case, then still keep trying.
Of course, if you still find it awful after a few months you should probably find something else but.. never give up on people
It'll end up being the reason why you feel lonely.

It'll end up being the reason why you feel lonely.Thanks for the advice :) I know I would regret it, so it's not really an option. I have my friends at home, so at least I'm not alone in every aspect of life! And there's always next year to make new friends if it ends up being that way this year.
I'm sorry, I didn't realise your reasons would be personal I guess
No problem for not saying, I understand. But even if no-one else is interested (but this is the school thread so it will always fit :P), I'd like to know how you get on :) One of my friends is just starting a film studies course next week, and is really excited haha. I bet it is an enjoyable course.

Well, I suppose it's a matter of taste, but I really enjoy making and studying movies :)And well, as you said, my reasons for being in doubt are a bit personal, but by no means a secret. Still, I'd rather not discuss them in a forum that's as open as this
My big wish is actually to study film in England (duh :P), because I would get to 'study' my two biggest interests at once: british culture and film making.

College - 16-18 year olds
Uni - 18+
I think americans tend to call uni, college. So it gets confusing.

You can only succeed if you open up to others. Don't ever hide your true self in order to fit in. If you're not accepted by certain people, you shouldn't be with them anyways. Just believe in yourself, and you can do anything. Don't let doubt keep you from spreading your wings. You need confidence to soar.

Good luck with that

Oh, I didn't know that about the UK. I learn something new every day
Slowly but surely, I'm talking more with my suitemates, though I feel so different from them that I stumble in trying to find a conversation. I usually end up talking about classes/university stuff, which is the only topic I know that everyone can join in, but one-on-one conversations seem to go better (because then they /have/ to respond to me XD). Still, there's like, one or two suitemates that seem to keep all talking with me to a minimum. I'm pretty sure there's no malicious intent, but one's a roommate, so it's a bit awkward to say hi to them and have them pretty much ignore you. :/
Still, I'm holding out on the idea that I will find more people to talk to. I met my Computer Engineering mentor and she's pretty awesome~ But because of the mentoring meeting I missed the first meeting for the Video Game Development Club, so I hope I can join that in the future. I asked around and there's nothing anime-related so far, so I'm sticking to this for the moment. >3>

About the difference between college and universities, here in America people use "college" in everyday talk as a blanket term for your education past high school, but if you get specific about it, universities are more formal, usually 4-year schools. College is usually short for community college, ideal for getting your general education requirements out of the way without paying so much, but for most majors you would need to transfer to a university after your second year because community colleges don't usually have the necessary upper division classes.
No, that's not right... not all colleges are community colleges, inexpensive, and only 2 year, nor are all universities 4 year and expensive... I decided to search this up and most of the results say the same as this site.

Ah, so it's based more on size? I see, that makes sense. I suppose I was describing more about the colleges I've seen in my area, which are basically either 2-year community or 4-year university SOOOO my definition isn't accurate, but this clears it up for me too :D
I have learned something new once again!
On a side note, my programming class is the bomb. Earlier I was telling my friends that I loved how I would type in code AND THEN THE MAGIC WOULD HAPPEN. So I attended class later and the professor was showing us some code with parts we hadn't learned yet... then he circled some parts and was like, "Ok guys, for now, this stuff is magic." And he writes "MAGIC" under it. I died of lulz.

That feel when you make a program that takes 2 hrs of work in under 30 minutes and just watch the rest of the class typing while you lay back and drink some Mountain Dew...

And that is the reason why I considered uni, even though I doubt I could manage the courses :P
And you being terrible at motivating yourself is another thing we got in common it seems
Haha, it's terrible isn't it?
I can motivate myself when it counts, like at exam times and stuff. But right now, I just can't! And I constantly feel guilty about it too. Oh well, I'm sure I'll be ok. I'm not the type to fail anything, I've never failed an exam or anything, and I don't intend to start now!

The SAT is dumb. That's all I'm really going to say about that piece of shit that wasted my time.
Yesterday I was just assigned ANOTHER essay (fourth consecutive one). This time I need to expand the definition of an abstract word. Fuck. I don't know what to write about.
I'm Blak, and I have shit taste.

Except I went to some presentation today by someone who wrote books on technical interviews and she explained the whole process to getting a job in this industry. I'm... pretty scared. I was looking forward to trying to get an internship after my first year just like my CSE mentor, but they're gonna ask me questions about a ton of stuff I haven't learned yet!! I don't know what these tree... table... things... whatever she mentioned are! Most second-years seemed to understand, so I guess that's when I learn it.
My first college midterm ever is on Monday and I'm a bit nervous. It's math, and though most of it is Calc stuff I learned in high school, we started on polar coordinates and I'm like "HOW DOES I MAKE ELLIPSE" so I need to get my butt in gear for that.
ALSOALSO There is a legit video game-developing club I just joined and we're now in the pre-production phase. I'm uber-excited for this.

Lucky. I've been trying to make a videogame developing club for a while now, but they won't accept it as a club until next semester... I'M NOT GONNA BE HERE NEXT SEMESTER!

Right? I didn't even fuckin' sign up and I gotta take that pile of shit. God fucking dammit.
So, me and my friend Jake are apparently the smartest in my Video Game Design class (Not that hard, really) Our teacher suggested we join the FBLA club. Suggestions?
And on a side note, my mom took my phone, upgraded it to a iPhone 4S, gave my sister her old number and the iPhone 4, and I get her old shitty Tracphone (which she only had because she literally destroyed every other phone she's had). I'm being very mature about this, even though I don't even get to keep my old smartphone to use over Wifi. I haven't complained or made threats at all. I deserve a medal or something.

Anyway, I took the SAT... I had to. All the colleges I applied to require it. Funny thing, though, I'm at a college that didn't need it.
