Default Get to know my new classmates

Second year in college, new class. There are a couple of people from my previous year in there, but most are new. Personally, I see this as a new opportunity, a way to make a good first impression. Whereas other people have expressed frustation of being in a completely new social environment, I feel lucky. I always felt like an outcast in my previous class, despite my efforts to fit in. I hope I have learned from my mistakes and can create new friendships. A new beginning. A better beginning would be a totally new school, but I'm not giving up this career choice for better social contact.

I'm happy a person from my previous class I'm 'medium-level' (as in, not very close but good to see type of person) friends with is there. If things do go wrong, I have somebody to fall back on and not feel 100 % lonely.

1. Make a good first impression
2. Get to know the people
3. Become schoolfriends
4. Become 'spare-time' friends
5. Profi- I mean, social happiness?

And there's a more colder and business related reasoning here, I could always use schoolpartners, the type of people to go to with questions and to do assignments with, without much true friendship going on.

Good luck! It's good that you have someone to fall back on, I had no one in college.
