sigh i this for this past 7 months all i day is study
i've got 3 more yers of uni left
how can i be more fun?
do i need to be more fun?
i'm pretty okay watching shows/play some sports/ just hang out with people who know how to have fun....

what do i want i guess?
be an extrovert
be funny
not to be so inhibited?
i got drunk for the first time, it was weird, i was soo inhibited
afterwards it made me feel like i'm missing out on the other side

like how do people have fun playing drinking games? i wouldn't be able to do it sober ...

so catch 22 i guess. i want but i can't

does travelling really help?
i think i'll just be the same old me but simply at a different place XD

yeah maybe i should try the booze thing
but i don't want to rely on it ...
don't think it's good for me though, i had 4 cans of 5% beer, i went crazy and started having tremors/i don't know kind of like a seizure? don't think that's normal...

Get out and do something you enjoy.

And no, you don't want to get drunk and screw yourself up. :p

Allot some time for studying and some time for fun. You'll go insane if you don't.

as someone that hated school and was burned out, I dont know if I have anything good to say other than find the moderation that fits you, find the balance where you dont get behind on the studying but still have time for fun. And stop the whole "no one is like me" we all do that but its not really true.

You don't need to be an extrovert to go to parties, get drunk, or be funny.

If that's what you want, just go to the parties and get drunk, the funny will come. There's nothing that stops introverts from getting wasted. Take your time with alcohol, though. Get a little drunk a few times before you get wasted. And if you eventually decide it's not for you, that's cool, too. If you do get drunk, get drunk with your friends. It's a social drug, and drinking alone is depressing. Standing by yourself at a party counts.

Don't worry about your roommates so much. If you'd rather do what they're doing, put down the books for a while and do what they're doing. An hour away from studying won't ruin your future, but you'll never regret making friends.

Thanks guys. I feel a lot better now.... Thanks for the thread too, I'm going to go through it very carefully some time, probably this weekend.

Actually, I'm kind of glad for going through this one day of unhappiness :p. It means it's time to make some changes in my life for the better :).

Probably a bit late here... but you don't want to waste your life doing something that other people want to do. Drinking is such a pointless activity, it's great fun for some people, other people just tag around all miserable wishing that something would happen and they'd become one of the people having fun. That's not your life. Relax. If you want to spend your spare time at home watching TV, then do it. That spare time is yours, not theirs. What makes you think you need to change? Those people on that seemingly green grass are immature. Find some better rolemodels if you want to be happy, because that green grass is not only fake, but layed over vomit and lies. Do you know who you want to be?
