Taking Philosophy was not the best idea. As soon as the class started, I'd get very confused and the readings frustrated me. I am a very logical thinker - there always has to be a definite answer for every problem. Pondering on thoughts annoyed me and made me agitated. So that was my first mistake in college.
Other than that my first week, it went great. I liked my classes, I started making some friends, and I was happy.
During the first week of college, there is little to do, at least at UCF. But on Friday, there was going to be a rave and I planned to meet one of my "internet" friends (I met her on the page to meet incoming freshman and we texted) there. So Friday comes around and I take the shuttle to her and meet both her and her roommate. We all automatically clicked and before you know, I was over at their dorm every day.
That was my luck because my main worry was: "What if I don't make friends?" I was so so so happy with everything going on. I attended tailgates, went clubbing, and also attended sporting events. Tailgates were very fun - waking up and getting ready was my favorite part. My first ever tailgate I wore a shirt I made the night before, and it actually turned out pretty good. I cut a gray T-shirt into a tube top and some black shorts. Getting ready was the fun part.
The day before, my friend and I went to a store to buy some black and gold (Go Knights) accessories. So we bought stickers, lipstick, and even necklaces. The next day we added everything we bought - we truly went all out. It was amazing to see everyone decked out in their UCF gear ready to cheer our team on!
However, weeks passed and I began having fights with my friend - frequent fights, and about little things. Many people say that you're never best friends with your roommate, but that's not true. Though we did encounter many fights, we are closer than ever now. We are even living together next year. Classes weren't that difficult, and honestly, if you prepare, you will do well.
As for friends, you will always find your group, but be patient and don't force anything. College is so much fun and there are so many things to experience.
