Default Its happening again...

What I mean by,"Its happening again," is that my semester in college is basically mirroring my high school years of being a loner. Everyone in my class is so social and outgoing, and Im just there. Im so detached from everyone and being an outsider is not comfortable. I don't know what to say or how to incorporate my ideas in the group or classroom setting. It is soo hard for me, its like a person afraid of heights but have to go bungee jumping. I have to talk in class, I have to do presentations in order for me to get a better grade(especially since Im not good test taker). Im being forced to do something that is out of my element. And what's up with people always having to point out that Im quiet. Its so annoying, when my teacher does attendance or call my name she says,"I didnt even notice you were there, youre so quiet." Im like what?, no one else says anything, but you're pointing me out. ( I feel so welcome in you're in class(sarcasm) Im just upset with school, I dont feel it is for me. Should I just drop out because of my personality/anxiety disorder? By the way, Im a junior and supposedly pursuing a teaching career but apparently Im too gentle for it. I might change careers.
