Sit down Basil, let us chat for a while
Honestly, how have you guys been? Any trials or troubles bothering you?
Or perhaps, life is going pretty smoothly for you.
I've entered college a week ago, and it's a really lonely place. Because it's a community college, most people are focused on transferring out of it, which leads to a lot of quiet classes where nobody really starts conversations. In my case, I just go to my classes and leave right after, not bothering to stick around. I haven't managed to make any friends, and all of my friends from highschool enrolled into a different college from me. I'm certain that eventually my friendship with them will fade away. They don't really bother contacting me, and I've given up for the most part. My life at this point in time is mostly me keeping to myself, and just wasting time at home. It's a pretty lonely moment in life for me right now, even if I have only one person whose there often for me. I don't expect you guys to really say anything helpful, or positive, I just wanted to put this out there. Thanks for reading this, or skimming this, or whatever.
[b]TLDR:[/b] Life sucks. Blah blah blah, rant rant. Obligatory thank you.

[quote=Fiercerain]@ZombieOverlord: Don't you dare kill my aspirations for Marsha, my future pet Martian rock. D:
u jus jelly I get to have as many Marshas as I want.
OT: Remember that you recently made a transition, it's natural for people to drift apart. Someone once said that journeys are like social scars that can only serve as reminders for how to handle your future if you decide to act on the wisdom. ;p[/quote]
Social scars huh? What an odd name I've been too tired lately too care much.
I'll try what I can though.
Now if you will excuse me, I have class to attend.
[quote=SapphireTurtle]@FallOfMan: The thread 404'd, so I will not confirm nor deny that I have her nudes.
But, if everything is like usual... Chances are, I probably have her nudes![/quote]
Requesting said nudes. Please deliver <3

@Fiercerain: A Martian pet rock is just your average unearthy rock though.
@teresa: Perhaps, but man are some of them long or what?
@Ickest: Oh, you're one of [i]those[/i] people.
@iShottedSnow: Sure, you know it.
@ZombieOverlord: It's not genocide if you're not human. ;p
(lol at my fail logic, I just want a Martian pet rock )
[quote=Fiercerain]Slow down there slick.. take some time for yourself and if you're already introspective enough well congrats. Spend some time getting to know your way around your new school. Unfortunately it appears as though a good chunk of people are focused in on what they're doing and if socializing seems to be a bit difficult, you might have a better shot at a social event. Then again it depends on how receptive you are with people.
For me... I'm usually type A and I tend to focus keenly on what I'm doing... which at times leads me to completely ignore people around me that I don't socialize with.. :x
But at least I socialize when I need something from people. ;p
As for the whole disintegrating you and repossessing your land.. I guess Martians are okay..[/quote]
Thank you for the advice, and...Martians are okay...after you commit genocide on us?
[quote=ZombieOverlord]Martian am I?
I know for the most part that I have to take charge and get to know others, move out of my bubble and all that, but I make too many excuses, and there never is a clear opportunity to get to know others. People are too focused on their own things. You can't really just barge into groups so easily now can you? Again, I'm making more excuses. I know what I have to do, but if others did it, it would make life a lot easier.[/quote]

That's definitely not going to help you.
I'm having trouble with one of my characters. Can't seem to find a way to properly convey her personality and style.
@XGoldGunnerX: omg, LOL Grammar Nazi. And yes, I know not to capitalise those words and not to begin a sentence with and.
BECAUSE SHE JUST IS >:
Well, in my case. I'm a prisoner at my own house due to legal issues, preventing me from leaving the country. I graduated highschool a year ago, but I can't attend to college due to the reasons stated earlier. All of my friends have left the country, and I'm left with barely any communication with the outside world. My best friend suddenly just started to ignore me as well, which really hurts. I'm suffering from PTSD, and the anxiety attacks I get from being alone is torturous.
[quote=SapphireTurtle]I think, due to a post on b, I have my friend's nudes...
The pictures match up with her body and everything...
If it is her, wow, this gon b gud.[/quote]
...you know what to do.
@XGoldGunnerX: I'm sorry >: Its just that, this girl. Is perfect.
@XGoldGunnerX: I'm sorry, but your just not enough. -cries-
[quote=Fiercerain]Earlier today I thought I was going to have a panic attack. I had a final exam earlier this morning and I was ready to throw up because I was really anxious. I was in a really testy mood and I was about ready to rage... A lot of things hit the ceiling (figurative speaking for you literal lolnubs) and I thought I was going to get my ass chewed out at work today. My partner hasn't been in the best of shape, but while working I started feeling much better.
As for you Martian, keep in mind that at some point you're going to have to learn how to move out of your comfort zone and move beyond your bubble. Though you'll likely not be receptive of this advice.[/quote]

I stopped playing Maplestory for 5 days.
Everything goes downhill.
WTH? Isn't it supposed to be getting better?
[b][i]Sigh. Forever alone.[/i][/b]
Daww CC's are pretty bad in terms of retention. You don't also get as much social nourishment like a regular college, but like you I started college a week or so and I've been feeling distanced in a difference sense. I'm more lost than the other kids and I thought I was the only kid that played online games, but I was waaay off, in fact I play not as much games as the majority at my school.
If it's quiet just walk over to someone and introduce yourself. On my first day I just knocked on the open doors in our hall and met almost everyone. If I see a kid who's familiar and he sits alone at lunch, I invite him to the table where I'm sitting. Be open and confident, you'll never get such a chance to get to meet so many people around your age.
I feel you, bro. First week of university and although I have a lot of friends from high school, none of them are night owls like me and have early schedules.
I really only see one or two people a day and exchange a "hey" at most. My classes are all lectures, and unless I purposely show up late to sit beside people, it's not all that great. I spark conversations well, but I've not been feeling it these days.
