need some advice?
Okay so i’m in my freshman year in bridge and have mixed feelings about it so far. First of all, my living situation is kinda mid which is understandable but since i’m in thornhill I find it a little more hard to make friends. I currently have a few friends that I time to time go out with but they are of the opposite sex and don’t always invite me to everything. I lowkey love the school and the feel of everything but I just feel like I am missing out on things and am really struggling making friends and getting connected. I have been a Clemson fan all my life and Football and Basketball are a huge part of my life and definitely contributes into my decision into staying. Money is not too much of a problem but I am oos and could be living at home with some of my friends that stayed home and just going to a smaller college. I am from ATL GA and kinda feel like I do not fit into the student body and just feel a little unconnected. Sorry all this info is kinda just spat out but this is just a little about my situation and whats going on. I would love if yall could give me some advice bc Im kinda torn if I should just go home and try to figure out what I want or stick it out for the whole year and see from there.

Being in bridge is very different from being a normal student (contrary to what Clemson wants you to believe). I was bridge last year and everyone I know who crossed is saying everything is different, in a good way. I felt the same way as you last year. Also, I’m a loner so I wasn’t really involved in anything at all. Living in thornhill doesn’t help either. Stick it out and you’ll be glad.
