Here is some very easy, and obvious advice, that I wish my daughter had used when she had a similar situation last year: stop trying. Just be yourself. I honestly think part of the problem for my daughter last year is that she tried too hard in the beginning. And yes, it is still the beginning. College Res Life advisors say that six weeks is the magic mark when people start relaxing. It’s not new anymore. Everyone is no longer just trying to put on their best face, and things are now becoming routine and normal. Just relax about it and give it some time. And if the people you know now are being awkward, move on from them. They aren’t who you need. It will happen, be patient. I promise things will improve.
