Has it happened to you that you feel lost on the first days of a new semester? This is something that happens to me every time. Maybe it’s the feeling of starting over and meeting new people.
Meeting new people, for me, has always been a little complicated. I think it’s difficult for me to get to know a person in such a short time because, even if we have a class together, we do not have time to socialize if we are trying to get to our next class on time. I’ve always been a little shy when meeting someone no one in my social circle knows.
Since my circle of close friends has always been very small, I am one of the people who thinks you do not need to have a large friend group to be happy. Honestly, I believe that a small and select group of friends is more than enough in your life.
I have always met people through my group of friends.
The first week of the semester is special since some of my closest friends graduated last semester. I’m happy for them, but it makes me a little sad to know that they won’t be with me in class.
Last semester was tough since I had 16 hours of classes and 19 hours of work. It was difficult, but thankfully, I had my classmates who became my friends and helped me when I had any questions in a course.
Now, it is about starting over and making new friends, which is a good thing since I’m going to meet new people. However, nostalgia is something that will always be present.
At the same time, I am very excited about this semester.
I think I will achieve many personal goals I set for myself and continue to pass my classes with good grades.
I am going to take some classes I have been wanting to take for a long time, and I think they will be very helpful to become a good psychologist one day. Even though I still have some obligations outside of my classes, I consider the spring semester to be one of the easiest. I will try not to overexert myself by taking too many classes to be able to enjoy the semester with my friends.
I’m trying not to make the same mistakes I made last semester. They made me feel super stressed and left no time to talk to childhood friends. I got the opportunity to see them one more time outside of the social circle.
I also hope to meet new people, not only in my classes but also outside of them.
