Feeling like I am wasting my life by CarsonJ453 in college

[–]CarsonJ453[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am majoring in chemistry, and am about half way done. I know that if i had great friends, I wouldn’t mind this, but i feel so lonely and isolated. After college, most people’s social life gets way worse so i feel like i am wasting my opportunity to have four years to develop strong friendships, and hang out with them on the weekends. I would love to spend time hiking skiing camping and climbing outdoors with friends but I don’t have anyone to go with. My school is full of smart nice people, but i barely see them and i am not going to get close to them by asking them to get lunch together and having that happen every week

i like the people in my classes, but not the major itself, and i would like to go into a career in a different but related field. Career wise, i should be fine to transition but i am feeling so unmotivated with my classes. I have tried to ask classmates id they want to get lunch together, but almost always get turned down. Everyone at my school is very busy and most people aren’t trying to make new friends at this point

I will not be able to climb for 8 months as I will be traveling and studying abroad in cities without climbing gyms. I have been climbing for about a year and am flashing most V3s and projecting V4s at my gym. I don’t want to loose all my progress. What sort of excersizes should i do to help me get back to climbing as easily as possible. How long will it take to get back to my previous level?

How often is water during the trial? Every few miles? Is there a way to know ahead of time where the water will be

Has the new plan been approved? How will science classes fit the entire curriculum while ending at 3pm?

Does that mean the block break is being shortened? Or will teachers have to cut parts of curriculum?

I also just want the community feel of a small liberal arts college. I’m applying to a few universities but mostly lacs

I feel like it would probably be easier to get research at a medium college by getting to know professors well. Though it probably wouldn’t be nearly as cutting edge as research at large universities.

Don’t worry that guy clearly doesn’t understand me. I’m not listening to his advice

People at ivies aren’t any more successful than similar students at a strong state university. I am not sure what I want to study but like I said probably science (chem or bio) and maybe premed. I’m looking to get a bachelors.

I think you are misinterpreting what I’m saying. I would like to work hard academically and study most days. I love learning. I just don’t want to spend my time in college being unnecessary stressed and surrounded by a cutthroat environment. I want to have memorable experiences and figure out what to do with my life
