Is the heat not working where you're at? Or is it just that cold?
I've been out and about mostly, so I've had more exposure to the chilly air.

^ Yeah that's pretty much what I have to do I think.Sometimes we don't know what's best for us until after we've made a decision. You'll probably have to go with one and cross your fingers it works out.
It would be nice if you had some more time, for sure.
^ Yeah that's the thing. I did talk to my adviser yesterday because I had to choose next year's classes. I spent a good hour planning and just telling her how hard it's been living there (didn't say a thing about my SA) with my food allergies and that I was thinking of going the online route. She didn't dismiss my idea, but she had me considering getting an apartment nearby. I talked with my mom this evening and she's all for it. I didn't think I'd have enough to pay for one, but my mom said that if I just go to college for the academics, I'll have enough back from my housing money to pay for an apartment, if I get a roommate. That's also another thing. I have someone that might just be able to room with me, but I'm kind of... uncertain about the whole situation. It'd be great to have my own apartment and be going to college, but my roommate would be my best guy friend... And I'm just afraid it would be awkward if we lived together. I don't like him more than a friend, but he has with me in the past, and I'm not sure if those feelings are gone. See what I'm getting at?Maybe you should talk to your academic advisor or counselor or your family about these feelings. One of them should be able to give you advice to at least point you in the right direction. Was the thing that came up something that annihilated your plans or can you salvage some ideas from it?

Also, I already chose my classes for next semester, but haven't registered yet and can't until I pay my dues, which I don't understand what I owe because I had everything paid for, and the stupid woman I was talking to today was very vague about everything and wouldn't explain and was just very snooty answering the questions I had.*breathes* Okay, and I'm also afraid of two classes I'm taking next semester, Psychology and Oral Communications. Psychology sounds like tons of fun... but there's 90 students in that class!
I have a bad enough time with my Chemistry class being 75 students. And Oral Communications will be the death of me. :S I don't do well with discussions, and I can hardly give a speech. Sorry for the long a** post. I felt that I needed to explain the whole situation.
Hmm, that's quite the predicament. Do you think he's completely over you now? If there's still some feelings there from him, and he won't be able to shut them down, it could get a little bit awkward. It's up to you if you want to take the step with him being roommates, but it's certainly a tricky situation.It'd be great to have my own apartment and be going to college, but my roommate would be my best guy friend...

^ Yeah I've been pretty clear about the whole "just friends" thing. I know how much someone hates to hear that, and I don't like feeling like I'm hurting someone when I do say it, but it is what it is.I think you should have told her about your SA; the more people know about a situation, the better they can help you. As for your guy friend being your roommate, you can try it, but just make it perfectly clear to him that you two are just friends. I think, in this situation, you're stuck with two poisons and you've got to pick one. Although, he may have already gotten over you. Talk about these things with him before you two move in together.
Did you go to the Finances building of your college when you were asking those questions? If that's the case, then send an e-mail to the contact person and talk to them about it. Just keep going higher and higher until someone gives you an answer. If Psychology was anything like my class, you'll forget about how many people there were. My teacher usually made us do work on our own and the students (or at least me) didn't interact with each other a lot. As for Oral Communications, talk to the teacher at get-go about your SA, they should be able to give some advice about it. I'm sure that your body will cope to the class though.
^ Yeah. I'm going to ponder it some more, and might talk to him about it tomorrow. Just to consider, not setting anything in stone yet.Hmm, that's quite the predicament.

I had one of those a couple weeks ago and it freaked me out, so I feel for ya. But try not to let it take over your life. Just go for a drive around the block and keep increasing the distance and traffic flow until you feel more comfortable. That's what I did.
You've been flat-out for a while so maybe you're just exhausted, mentally and physically. Time for a break, I reckon.My anxiety has been through the roof lately. I know things have been hectic and stressful the past few weeks, but it feels like I can't do anything without freaking out. (I think I said that same thing just a few days ago, actually.)
I'm hoping it will pass when things settle down, instead of getting worse...
I'm sorry to hear that, BlueDays. Hopefully you'll meet some people soon and you can get back in the social circle. Even just one person you can rely on is nice. I only really go out with one person these days and that's fine with me.lonelylonelylonely
It's getting harder each year to cope without a friend to hang out with.::

^ Hope you feel better soonI have a cold -.-
^ Grab a cart and run them over!In the supermarket right now. Shopping alone for groceries and it is packed. Feel like I am penned in and costrophobic.
I need to be able to breath. I've found a corner so I can get out of the way.
