Why do these people insist on annoying me by not living exactly as I want them to!!!


Seriously, either you party or you don't, that is your choice, but what is this ridiculous need to feel superior for not partying? People aren't "partying their life away."

Nerd, there really isn't any word more suitable. Sitting in a corner, sulking at all the people having fun, angry that they aren't having fun the "proper" way.


Feel free to feel superior to everyone around you, but if you don't have anything to show for it, it's just sad.

This is an excellent point.

The OP sounds less like an intelligent person preferring the comforts of his own home, and a LOT more like an arrogant dick trying to justify his social awkwardness by citing his own intelligence, 'no bullshit attitude' (read: lack of tact), and the horribleness of other people.


The only person you're fooling is yourself.

I completely agree 100% about perspective

Why don't you party it up with great people. Party people aren't bad people or dumb people. Find the right people. And stop being a stuck up nerd.

You're not over partying until you've partied hard. Come back when you've been to crazy dressed up parties where 100 percent of the people is on drugs, where girls wear nothing but duct tape to cover their nipples, techno music is banging and everybody is making out with everybody. Come to europe, boy.

You should put previous blog entry links into new ones if you want to blog often.

Also, i responded on your last blog and the point I was trying to say you shouldnt make the wrong turns like I did. you are no better than other people yet. You might think so but in your time "not partying" its not like your making yourself useful as well. Your just making excuses for being socially awkward.

Fresh college year is best way to start over, meet new ppl, and enjoy new things. This is the opportunity to bang chicks and enjoy alcohol. If your done with school you need to get serious, but now you can do what you want. Like someone above said, ppl that never go out are kind of sad, nd ppl that are stuck on that phase are even more sad. Party gets real around your age, anything before is immature teen gathering.

Either go out and stop making excuses for being socially awkward OR what I did, make yourself better than others. If you cant make 100k $ each year while doing school or some other goal, then your no better than others

(I understand this is a generic label, but it's more apt to fit the habitual party-goer)

I was fortunate (or unfortunate) enough to go through an intense party and outgoing phase in high school, such that I've been over that kind of stuff for years. The scene is overplayed, the bars boring, and the people that do them often are the ones I'd rather not spend my time with anyways. That's not to say those of us that share my view or have similar experiences can't go out every once in awhile to unwind with friends or just relax.

It will more come to a point where you really start to determine your values that you'll be able to act with more certainty and enjoy activities.


Hey Id just like to clear up that I am NOT a socially akward person. I am a socially SELECTIVE person. Whats the difference? Well I mean like I call it being pretty social when I am out all day talking to different people. I haven't really "settled down yet" on a group of people that I really like and can make my close friends. Instead I just weave in and out of the many social circles in college.

Friday night, I smoked quite a few blunts and a couple bowls with about 10 different people and then went to a party for a couple hours. I chatted, made friends with new people, and then left because I know I had my limit on drinking. I honestly don't consider myself a socially akward person and to read these blogs thinking that I am probably doesn't put the right perspective to what I am saying.

Yesterday, one of the football guys kept trying to set me up with a bunch of freshman. It got to the point where after the third time, I just had to sit down and say I appreciate it mate, but I just am not into these froshers.

The part i bolded is what I agree with completely and was trying to say I guess. Last night was great, I made new friends and connections which will probably help when i go out tonight. My ultimate goal here is to find new people and be able to go to different parties across campus to look for girls that I want to fuck, which most likely arent freshmen.

while this may be true, the opposite is also true for very many people. Strictly talking from partying perspective here. Most people are "expected" to party it up in college, but there are those people who party it up and make alcohol references to gain social approval from others (quite opposite from being comfortable in your own skin). I'm talking about people who always talk about needing to get hammered, shit-faced, etc. And the usual "omg i need some alcohol" or "I was so fucked up last night!".

You shouldn't hate on freshman so much. The older you get, the more you will have wished you had banged a bunch of them.

I concur. They are just really prude in general. Im not even talking from a sexual perspective but just as a person what the fuck is your problem if you dont even want to be friendly and have a normal conversation? Hopefully that will go away as they get more used to college though

It's one thing to prefer to stay at home, I personally never really got into partying so much, I tried it but found it to be rather boring after a short while.

It's another thing put everyone below you just because they live normal lives.

You sound so incredibly full of yourself. The irony here is that most really intelligent people don't have to proclaim they are.

I wish there was a debate team at the college I went to. We didn't even have a football team.

I say that to give context to who I think of myself as. You can choose to interpret what I say as full of shit or you can look at in a more positive light. I dont go around in real life saying that I am smart and tell people how smart I am. However, since this is in faft the internet I thought I would give a little bit of common courtesy as to describing myself as intelligent.

Your average college freshman is definitely not a prude. The problem is probably something else...

I cannot even begin to describe how upset I was to learn that the standard college debate form at my alma mater was most akin to policy debate. That motor mouthed bs is part of the reason why intelligent political discourse suffers in the US. In other words, the debate team may provide little or no respite.

I would say I am quite similar to you, I don't have much friends but those select few who I am acquaintances with I am comfortable talking about a diverse range of topics. I prefer to stay indoors and watch a good movie, read a good book, play video games, or do anything that stimulates me intellectually. Partying or socializing is basically a waste of time for me; I do not avoid social interaction per se but I simply derive no satisfaction, personal or emotional, from such activities. I would much rather strive to improve myself in some way as opposed to killing brain cells by drinking, partying, and such. Also, surrounding yourself with people who have similar interests, perspectives, and dreams as yourself is the best thing you can possibly do. Not only will you have fun but you will feel like you belong by immersing yourself in an environment of your choosing. That I believe is the fundamental human desire: to seek meaningful companionship that stimulates you to grow and develop and be the best person you can possibly be. I have found that trying to party or attempting to be more social is not only an awkward experience for me, but also for those who encounter my behavior. You must first realize who you are, and never try to change yourself to please others or "fit in". If you find yourself in a place you don't want to be, change your surroundings, don't change yourself. Because none of us are alone, and whenever we might feel that we are, we must remind ourselves that perhaps we are simply looking in all the wrong places.

I socialize because I like to meet new people. I also socialize to network and and be able to be exposed to more peopoe to meet so I can meet new people

I think it's something you have to grow into. If you were never into parties in high school you won't be able to enjoy them in college.
I think in our modern age technology has evolved to become more addictive. The things that don't give us pleasure aren't used as much. Work was never meant to be fun, but doing it makes us happier in the long run.

My guess is that that was a misusage and me meant to write crude or something.

Well cheers and enjoy college. I know what you're saying when you're assert that most freshman are not intellectual, but fwiw you're a freshman as well. Hanging out with your peers is a good thing, and I do empathize with your feeling that said peers sometimes can be stupid, but at the same time you should still try to hang out with them and build a relationship.
