i recently left my former college along with my friends to pursue my dream of working in the games industry, the college i go to is a while away and requires me to get 3 different buses, i get up at 6 and get buses from 7 and arrive there at 9, i have made friends at college but can hang out with them outside of school due to them living so far away, as i dont get home till 6 i lost all motivation to go out with friends and in return i dont get invited out anymore. i do attempt to go out with them but its usually shit and i regret going out and wasting my money when i could just stay home and play xbox which i find much more enjoyable at times, am i becoming an unsociable douche or do you reckon its a phase?
has anyone else ever been through this?
Dude, I'm going exactly through what you are right now. I'm going to university to take Documentary, take two buses and a skytrain to get there and usually work late. When I finish my work for the day I usually decline hanging out with people I know from school as I still have the long ass return trip home.
University destroys social lives, especially when it is combined with a long commute. I'm sure this will change when you graduate or if you move closer to school.
Oh hey,
