So, although my SA isn't cured in the least, things are getting more manageable to handle. I'm happier than I have been in awhile, I find I want to be more outgoing and I'm greeted with positive feedback when I am. All those times of worrying myself sick before I went somewhere or was at a function with people turned me into someone that no one wanted to be around, hence nobody liked talking to me which is the opposite of what I wanted obviously.
Off subject though. I like the freedom of doing what I want, not crazy things but just getting an idea in my head and having the gusto to do it. It's rather nice but I don't want to just jump into anything because I feel I can. I know eventually something will happen that's going to burn and bruise my self confidence but I can't think about that. Case in point, I've been looking at colleges to attend when August comes around. I had one picked out where I wouldn't have to live on campus but my aunt seems to think that this isn't a good idea. She believes that the best thing for me is to at least live on campus one year and see how I like it. She has the mind set that it would be great to be exposed to new people, go to parties, meet new guys and have fun like a college kid should. But I'm super nervous about the idea..to think of living away from home even though it's only twenty minutes away is scary. It's mainly being amongst a bunch of others that I don't know, forced to share a room with them.
I just wanted to know, of you guys who go to a university, how many live on campus? Do you like it? How did you transition from home to there?
