Next, I would like to rant about college and depression. For the short time that I have been a college student I have been faced wtih depressed friends, and even the occaional down day of my own. My roommate and I got into an argument yesterday night when I asked her what was bothering her. And I knew something was bothering her b/c she wasn't speaking at all. She said she wasnt a people person and life's a bitch so why not be one. I then replied that, that has to be the saddest way to live your life. Isn't just as easy to be happy, look up and ignore the little things that have the capability to get you down? I think so, I used to be that girl that never spoke, was scared of everyone and didn't want to have anything to do with people but I changed, people aren't mean, and the mean ones are not that hard to ignore. If you havn't listened to anything I have said in this blog, listen to me when I say be happy look up and ignore the little things. Life ain't that bad and you only have one so live it up, Party, study, do stupid things (this i'm good at), and have no regrets.

very well said! i would like to make new friends in this class. I feel that we have already made friends and we are sitting with the same people every day.. lets try switching things up? and sitting with someone new every class!
I agree with you Jessica! This class was an amazing idea and we really aren't using it to make friends at all. I would really like to make some new friends!
I already told you how I felt monday, however i will say it again. I was totally excited about this class when i found out what it was. i am an extremely compassionate person and take friendships very serious. After learning more about this class i thought that i was going to make some long lasting friendships in it. i also thought it was going to make college a little easier and more fun. However at this moment i have been VERY WRONG. i don't want to be the only one trying to make friends with someone else when they don't even seem to care. And to add something it is not easy for me to go up and to start talking to strangers!!! i feel like there are cliques all in the class and to go up to one person and start a conversation is not easy so going up to a group of girls is even harder than that...can u say intimidating.
Anyways I hope that class will change for the better soon or i am going to be very disappointed.
I for one belive that jessica is right but I think we also need to look at both sides. Some people just dont get along with others. I know for a fact that some people just have trouble getting along with others. I for one dont have a problem but I do belive that we could try harder to be more of friends or share our interest more.
I definitely agree with you! There are still a lot of girls in the class that I do not even know their names. That is pretty sad when we have been in class for a couple months now. I feel like this class is a wonderful idea and has a lot of potential but we have to be the ones that make it work.
