Do you consider how social people are at your dream college?

<p>Hey RAlec we seem pretty compatible :)</p>

<p>

Well yea I was including the basketball thing as a joke.
And by physically capable I meant that, just what it says, that they’re not incapable of hanging.</p>

<p>

I understand that, but my question to him was whether he’d befriend a person whom he perceived as a geek but approached him (thus defeating one characteristic of the geek stereotype). I really don’t think socially awkward people can’t just be chill, I mean, they’re (should I use they or we?!?) pretty chill among themselves and can be quite chill once one gets to know them.</p>

<p>Just what I think, like I said, I can kick it with anyone so if you hate Nietzsche(sp) then you’re chill with me.</p>

<p>EDIT: most times I’ve ever used chill in a span of 3 minutes</p>

<p>

<p>Taken out of Jersey’s exact context a little, but this should be QFT.</p>

<p>

I need an explanation here. What exactly is wrong with us Dostoevsky and Nietzsche addicts? (Nietzsche less so for me, but I can fully understand an addiction to him)</p>

<p>i hate nietzsche.</p>

<p>Yes I do consider how social the people are at my dream college. I refuse to a attend a party school. I prefer to make nerdy and awkward friends.</p>

<p>It’s not that i mind nerdy people but i don’t like awkwardness. But the two come in hand in hand.</p>

<p>I don’t like too many party ppl either but they have good connections.
I just need cool people, not necessarily party ppl</p>

<p>

Actually, I’ve found that the “awkwardness” arises when you have more unique personalities attempting to engage one another or engaging characteristic personalities. When engaging one another, their personalities are more complex and perhaps less apparent than most, and so there’s some grappling between them to come to common ground. When engaging more normal people, these quirky people are often talking about things they aren’t really interested in and the awkwardness is their inability to hide the fact that they find such conversing a massive waste of time.</p>

<p>The “awkwardness” is, to me, recognition that the people are talking with or for a purpose, rather than talking for the sake of talking. To put it a better way, I rarely find awkwardness in boring people’s conversations- they can go on and on about the most trivial thing. And whenever I find myself in that situation, I desperately wish there was.</p>

<p>Yes, it is considered.</p>

<p>Social life was an important factor when I’m trying to look for colleges.</p>

<p>What you’re asking if I consider how social ppl would be at my dream school?</p>

<p>I don’t think I could answer that because everybody’s different. I generally get along with people very easily but…I’ve noticed that all of my friends are either Middle eastern or african/black or muslim and some filipinos …so when I get to college I hope I can adjust and expand the type of friends that i have in my circle.</p>

<p>So yeahh I suppose it’s just b/c it’s easier for me to make friends that are similar to me in some way.</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>Yup lol. :D</p>
