How to Make Time for Socializing in College - Social & Making Friends in College // ew & pt

This past week has been super busy, and yet I’ve been as social as ever. Socializing in college stresses me out and makes my calendar extra overwhelming…but, it also makes me extra happy. I love being able to see friends and spend time with people while I still have the chance. (I’m not dying…just graduating….both are kind of similar)

The older you get, the more you need to legitimately make time for people and make actual plans. There is less casually bumping into friends or making plans five minutes before they happen. While that’s kind of stressful, it can be pretty nice to know how your social calendar is shaping up for the next two weeks. Here are some ways to make time and make plans for socializing in college.

How to be Charismatic & Charming - How to be Popular // ew & pt

The Ultimate Guide to Being Social in College - How to Be Social in College- How to be Extroverted in College - Making Friends in College // ew & pt

I still remember the summer before freshman year. I spent most of it up Pinterest’s ass, inhaling every piece of information I could find about making friends, decorating my dorm and overall being a fantastic collegiate. One of the things I was most focused on, however, was being social in college. I wanted to go from a somewhat friendly, sociable person to a goddamn social butterfly with big, obnoxious wings. I hate butterflies and they scare me, but they composed my biggest college goal.

While I’m far from being a top tier socialite, I consider myself social and friendly on campus. Here are some tips and advice for being social in college. While I don’t always follow them, I always say on the blog that I give way better advice than I take. So, friends, take my advice. Take it with plenty of salt, maybe even that pink Himalayan boujee salt that everyone on Insta loves. Here we go.
