When I first signed up for on-campus housing, I was told that there was no room left for me and that I'd be placed in their Inn fifteen minutes from campus and then reassigned when something opened up. Well, it looks like something already opened up and I'm freaking out. Unless I'm mistaken, I'll be placed in a rather nice room (I've seen them before and they're quite big) but with three other girls (which is customary). I know this would probably be best for me given the fact that I'm sort of a loner and would shut myself away if I didn't live with anyone else...but I suffer from an anxiety disorder and am already starting to get worried. What if I don't like them? What if I don't fit? What if the living arrangements are uncomfortable? Now, of course, we could also all get along and have a great time but I'm still just really worked up...damn anxiety... I could also be wrong about where I've been placed because I haven't been told yet but the same message was sent to three other girls so I'm going to guess that they'll be who I'm with...unless they only had room to move the four of us, thus us four being alerted at the same time.

Every single incoming freshmen deals with these questions each year. It's just something you have to cross your fingers and hope it works out. I got dealt kind of a shitty hand and was placed with a straight edge judgemental jehovahs witness my freshman year... but we learned to ignore our differences and coexist peacefully which is all you can hope to do sometimes. 
I'm a Sophmore, I'm just transferring to a new school. The girls I rooomed with my first semester of college were okay (bitchy pains in the ass at times but, otherwise, okay) while I got to room alone my second semester so this will be a new one...three girls...yikes... EDIT: Oh, also, I came home on the weekends my first semester of school so I was only around them five days out of the week and then I went home. Can't go home now...I'll be 300 miles away from home... Post edited at 8:10 am on Aug. 3, 2008 by Majo

okey first off you dont no that you have been placed in the room just yet right? so until its confirmed try not to worry about it too much. Now if it is confirmed all you can really do it try and get along. i understand your situation, i hate being put in a situation where i have to interact with complete stranger, i'm a very shy person, although i dont have an a anxiety disorder which i realise would make the situation so much harder for you. In my first year of college i was placed in a flat with FIVE complete strangers, so as you can imagine i was freeking out slightly. Anyway i managed to get along with them okey but i only did that by trying to talk with them and get along with them, so basically just try ad get along with them, if you feel your starting to really panic try stepping back from the situation and take some me time. Just try not to get it into your head that your not going to get on woth these girls before you meet them because if you do this you will find it harder to get along with them, and if/when you do meet them just try not to panic. hope it goes well for you
