Getting laid and drinking aren't two events normally associated with me

Lol, well that's college in America for you

....It is?

*looks around*

Not seeing it...

[Eric Blank]

I've been attending classes on and off four a couple years and I've never been invited to have sex and get drunk.

Like, that is frankly bizarre. I didn't know people actually did that sort of thing outside terrible movies

I've been lead to believe that it's true, and unless the world is engaged in a very elaborate plan to fool me, I have reason to believe people do get invited to sexual intercourse and alcohol (although I believe this is generally an implicit invitation). Strange to believe, I know, but it does apparently happen.

I didn't want to wait for the bus driver to get back from their hour-long break, so I decided to walk the rest of the way to school. It was... a pretty bad decision. I beat the bus here! But I still ended up freezing and my left foot feels like the bottom's peeling off. There's a big sensitive spot between my toes that's probably a blister.

[TheBiggerFish]

Eep!  That's not good...

Hope it's not very serious.

Not to everyone.

Try harder, then. You do usually have to put in a bit of effort, y'know?

Apparently.

Talking to people is hard though...Let alone girls.

[Telgin]

I'm pretty sure the getting invited to parties to get drunk and whatever follows tends to happen a lot more to students who live in dorms and otherwise attend events.  If you're like me and did neither, then you probably won't get invited to stuff like that.

I lived off campus and only showed up for classes, so that's all I ever saw.  Don't feel like I missed much either, but then while I'm the kind that's also too shy to talk to girls, I was at least lucky enough to not have the urge to do so.

[TheBiggerFish]

Well I mean I live in dorms but I barely see anybody.

[Helgoland]

Ah, you have to get into the social side of things, of course. Pub crawls, faculty and student council events, etc etc. If I were you I'd try to get into the crowd that does the preparation for the freshmen's introduction. At least in my faculty that's a great way of combining drinking, socializing, and meeting new people.

[TheBiggerFish]

Well, one, USian so no drinking for me, two, oh god running an orientation why, three...Like, seriously, not my thing...

Maybe I should try to go to this video game thing there've been posters for but honestly by Friday evening hauling myself back across a 10-15 minute walk for some videogames isn't all too enticing.

[Helgoland]

Wait, isn't underage drinking at university both socially accepted and easily done?

(Around here folks start drinking at around fourteen, so your whole system seems veeeeeery strange to me.

[TheBiggerFish]

It's still illegal.

(Honestly I think the legal age for any drug should be 21 all 'round...You know, at roughly the point where it doesn't get to play havoc upon developing brains.)
