I'm sorry to hear that you're feeling this way. It can be really tough to adjust to a new environment, especially when it feels like you're not connecting with those around you. Here are a few suggestions that might help:

1. **Join Clubs or Groups**: Look for clubs or groups on campus that align with your interests. This can be a great way to meet people who share similar hobbies or passions.

2. **Attend Social Events**: Keep an eye out for social events or gatherings organized by your college. These can be informal settings where you can meet new people.

3. **Reach Out**: Sometimes, people are just as nervous as you are. Consider reaching out to your roommate or classmates with a simple message or invitation to hang out.

4. **Seek Support**: If you're feeling overwhelmed, it might be helpful to talk to a counselor or advisor at your college. They can offer support and possibly suggest resources to help you connect with others.

5. **Be Patient**: Building friendships takes time. Be patient with yourself and others as you navigate this new chapter.

Remember, it's completely normal to feel this way, and you're not alone. Many people go through similar experiences when starting at a new place. Keep an open mind, and don't hesitate to reach out for support when you need it.

Dear Friend,

It really will get better. You go out and be bright and shiny and cheerful and smile at everyone. Be genuine, of course. People will be attracted to your friendliness and outgoingness. Be interested in others (but never a pest). (that didn't come out right, I'm sure you're not) But don't mope around, no one likes that. Your roomate: could be personality, could be culture, she might be homesick and frustrated, too. As long as she is considerate and honest, you're doing great. Anything else is a bonus!

Prayer: Dear Lord, I lift up this student, this precious life whom you created in your image and likeness. Dear Lord, bless this person with Godly friends. Help them to find each other quickly. Let them be lifelong friends. Send your blessings and favor and covering to this young person Lord.

Now friend, remember, the Lord says, 'if you want a friend, you must show yourself friendly'. Get involved in campus activities. Look for campus crusade or something like that. If not, call the local churches to see what activities they are planning for the college students. You'll be amazed at how soon you will have friends! Be happy and at peace!

Lord, answer this person by your power of all sufficiency. Amen.
