oh, I feel so guilty for not checking in with my fav collegegirl.
You know, I remember the stressing over these very same things way back in 1985 or something like that, somewhere in Benedict Hall I agonized....one thing for sure is that first semester is a tough one. The other thing is I agree with your roommate - a group or club that you have something in common with is key. Once that happens the rest kind of falls into place. {i know that sounds corney...but at some point you will not worry about it so much - really}
There are always going to be the groups you hang out with on occasion like while your out or at a party. and then there will be the buddies that you share more with...I was lucky I had two roommates that where fantastic, in fact we still all meet up with each other once a summer. Yet we were all different from each other...a soccer jock, a down stater who loved to party and me shy, studious girl. Doesn't sound like a great match huh? in fact, our personalities meshed somehow. They helped me be more outgoing. There were some crazies along the way believe me and I always felt bad for the 4th roommate who had nothing in common with us or the one who just didn't even want anything to do with us, then those that were just plain rude and only cared about themselves {try this -- she stole books from my room and sold them, used the money for her diet pill habit, nice. real nice. we tried to help her, we really did. some folks just don't get the friendship thing}.
Its okay if some friendships don't "fit". Wish I could say "don't sweat the small stuff" but of course sometimes we do. Move on to places you feel comfortable with. More classes will mean more opportunities for other friends. Just hanging out on the weekends is good too -- I personally liked the larger dorms for this {found memories of Bramley Hall}. There is a common bond that builds slowly. I think the more roommates the better chance there will be someone you click with.
It might be good to point out here .. Remember college isn't just about learning out of books its about discovering the person you are -- and dealing with all sorts of personalities...yeah just like the real world 'cept you get to take those neato breaks.
peace.
your pretend mom :)
