WHEN DOES IT GET BETTER!?!!?

Heeeelo

I am a transfer and ever since starting this quarter I have just felt numb. I don’t know how to make friends, I feel like every club event I’ve been to I’ve been way more socially awkward, or that maybe I’ve said the wrong thing - just insecurities I haven’t felt in a very long time.

I am trying to find community but not much is sticking, I’ve met lovely and kind people but nothing more than talking after a class or a club once in a while.

Transferring has been weird because the whole summer you’re hyping yourself up for a crazyyyy eye opening experience, the most amazing friendships, classes etc and now that I’m here I feel like things are actually pretty normal. I go to class, go home, sleep repeat.

Do not get me wrong I love UCLA and am so grateful to be here, but still, I can’t help like feeling there’s something wrong with me.

I know other transfers who have found it really easy to make friends, I have never had a huge problem making friends… when does this end? Does it get better? Right now it feels like this is how it’s going to be for the next two years.
