I have just started college, a small private liberal arts school near allentown, pa. Its been a hell of a couple days so far and Im sure many more days, both good and bad, are sure to follow.

Right off the bat things got interesting. I arrived at the dorm a day early before the big rush and got to meet the R.A. Hes a cool guy in charge of the 90 guys on this floor. Orientation starts the day for the rest of the weekendm Currently we just have a few stuff left to do tomorrow so I am free to sleep in tomorow. Today ends the third night that ive been here. I have worked out twice and did about 45 mins of cardio this time.

My freshman class of 2016 is about 500 people. I have met most of the football team, all the peoplr on my floor (4 floors total). I brought my desktop computer. My room is screwed for internet currently and so I cant play sc2. That was a huge bummer. It ruined saturday afternoon and evening. I say "ruined" sarcastically. I said fuck the world its life and found other ways to pass time.

I do not have any self confidence issues nor do I participate in uh much of what is going on. I am a very mature person and have wisdom beyond my age. we have taken a personality quiz called strength quest. I was given "Individualization" "Ideation" "Strategic" "Intellection" "Command". What this basically means is that I play a starcraft2 type real life game; I make decisions and choose what is in the best interest of me.

I have developed a little tool I like to call Intristic Motivation. I have even done almost 2 readings and taken notes about them for bio in eager preperation. I am majoring in neuroscience in which I have a great interest of discovering more. I want to continue somewhere to med school in the future.

For time management, I do things in my interest. I am going to stay very physically active in athletic form with weight lifting which Ive done for 5 years now. I also have the chance to control what I eat and I can only say this, fruits and nutrition gice you more energy and better mood about life. Great bonus is that they taste good.

On the drugs side, A guy on the football team drank too much and threw up during a speech that was being given in front of everyone and the emts came. I think a girl is in the hospital tonight as well. I am not surprised that this has happened. It just makes me more interested in seeing how the rest of the freshman class acts. For the most part, typical athletic and school bound seperation because they have had time to bond.

I guess you could say I grew up during the second half of my junior year to where my ego didnt get in the way anymore and I stopped caring what people might have thought about me or any self doubt about myself.

On the marijuana side, I was walking back from working out and I smelled weed. I was looking at my phone but smelled it, looked up, and saw 2 guys walk buy. I went up to them and asked "Do you have weed"?
Saying that to a complete stranger rewarded me with a bunch of sophomore friends by the end of today and a source to buy weed. I am the king of weed currently in the freshman class haha.I am relieved at meeting a lot of upper classmen girls and seeing even more. I was worried for a little while that I would have to put up with freshman girls for the immediate foreseeable future. I am not ruling out everyone, but for the most part the majority of them havent fully seveloped their bodies and personalities yet. Different story for the upper classes which is great for me.

I have never had sex before but I have developed he belief that sex is natural and i will not have a really "serious girlfriend/ or jist having sex with one person either aka being exclusive. Im not too concerned with getting laid. I know I will get laid this year even this month by someone new i meet, the power od meeting new people.

I choose to think nothing is set in stone and that you create your future. So instead od saying this is luck i would call it persistence

Great blog, I bet your parents are proud.
SC is like sex. You should play often, but never too hard. And you should only try hard when it matters.

Good luck . I see some similarities of when i was your age (im just a few years older).

Just hope u wont take the wrong turns like me. Considering yourself smart, more delevoped/mature can be a major downfall. Ppl used to say im a nice guy and social to everyone. But I always considered myself better and smarter so in time ppl started to hate me. Uni went from awesome first year to shitty last year.

Its not that ppl dont like me, or that im a total asshole, but somehow I managed to build a wall around me that blocks me from getting to to know stupid ppl. Trust me, even in uni ppl are stupid.

Now im 23 nd run my own company. I shouldnt complain, because the choices I made had the most benefit (financially spoken) but by not being another sheep I missed out alot on social terms.

Life can be a real rollercoaster sometimes..

Sounds like you are overthinking things. Are you always this introspective?

My advice: stop thinking about things so much or you'll never enjoy yourself. Have some fun and don't worry about things like getting laid. All that stuff will come. Focus on your classes. As a senior applying to medical school, trust me when I say you'll appreciate your focus later!
