Social life

Over the past year I’ve seen a lot of discussion about how the social life sucks here. I realize our school is known for being a commuter school, and it's definitely true that it's harder to make friends here than at SDSU, and people are often antisocial and all that. But I just want to point out that we as students can change that by being more social and getting involved in school life. I recognize that you can't control what other people do, but you can make an effort to talk to the people in your classes, join clubs, and go to school events. Like if you complain about people being antisocial but you just sit on your phone before class and don’t try socializing, you’re part of the problem.

In my first semester here, I was pretty antisocial. I barely talked to people, I just went to class and went home. But last semester I started making an effort to talk to people around me and join clubs, and it's been rewarding. I know it can be scary to step outside your comfort zone, but life’s too short to stay in a bubble forever, no matter how convenient it may be. If any of y’all want to talk or meet, feel free to dm me, I’m always down to meet new people. Let’s make this a great semester!
