It seems like ever since i went back to school i have had little or no time for a social life. my friends that i used to hang out with have grown so accustomed to me not being able to attend functions that i have been cut out of the loop, and now that my class load isn't as heavy (this semester) i still don't get invited to hang out. i have officially become an outsider to my old group of friends. a few even moved out of town without telling me. 
now the only person i hang out with outside of class is my girlfriend ( which i cannot complain) but some times i just want to hang out with the now non-existent guys and watch a game and drink a beer, and i just cant.
sorry for the blog

I spend a lot of time talking to myself.

|  | I'm gonna love and tolerate the **** out of you! | | Join Date: Jan 2008 Location: Memphis/Knoxville TN | | | Same thing happened to me when I got to college. I literally went from seeing my friends almost everyday to never. The only people I really hang out with now is my roommate, my band mates, and the occassional guys I went to high school with. At times it is a little sad, but at the same time it really doesn't bother me too much... If that makes sense. |

When I got to college, my hanging out time went through the roof. Sure, I didn't see anyone from highschool but I had moved from L.A. to Atlanta for school.

I have to work and study; it's the last semester of my Graphic Design B.D. I have a musical coming next month. All of these add up to a lot.
