I’m going into my last year of college and I kinda felt like I did college wrong. Like, my grades are good but everything else about college I failed at. Like socially and stuff, after 4 years I barely know anybody. I commuted(to avoid debt, and did so successfully) so maybe that’s part of my problem.

But I feel college was supposed to be special time in your life and to me it has been indifferent. :/Thoughts?

    Thanks a lot for the thoughtful reply, I kinda appreciate long replies! You got me thinking about the positive things I have done so far in college and they are more professional in nature .I got the chance to really dedicate time and study the things that interest me, my school had allowed me to self design my own major which is really cool in hindsight. And I have done about 3 internships,and work-study job,which I really enjoyed and helped me grow a lot as a professional. I feel like I’m more of ambivert that lends introverted. And you gave some really good pointers and advice, I take fully responsibility for the lack of effort on my part, I like was thinking to myself I hadn’t gone in about 80% of the buildings on campus, because I really just went to class and came home. So, I’m going to take your advice and just wander.

    I’m going to approach my last year of college with no expectations and just go with the flow of things.

      No problem! You’re already doing the best thing you can, which is identifying the problem and seeking advice. And it sounds like you’re doing awesome for yourself otherwise so honestly I feel like you’re going to rock this year.
