🌟NEW FEATURE!!✨I'm going to pin one of your comments EVERY week! Leave a funny, inspiring, weird, or plain random comment below. (If you have no idea, you can quote something from the video or a time stamp where I did something interesting... LOL)
Psst. You. YES YOU.
If you see this, comment "you already made 20 friends in the first day!?" ;)
It's like our own little secret.
Good luck everyone who’s moving to university! This video was super helpful but another tip: You will meet so many friends throughout your time in higher education, your friendship groups will change, grow bigger, smaller ect. Just relax and be yourself and everything will work out 😊
Aiden Molyneux Wow this is amazing advice Aiden!! Thank you for sharing and 100% agree😊🙌🏼
Thank you! 🥺❤
thank you for this 🥲
@@ldristtshe is lying, try your best then everything will work out
@@TheNewTrajectory oh thanks for the advice lol but i don't think she is lying, maybe we need to relax a lil bit
I’m so scared. My last 3 years in high school I had not one close friend, I went to maybe 2 parties that whole time and didn’t even celebrate my 16 and 17 birthday because I had no one to invite. Now I’m about to start medical school. Sadly no physical introduction week because of corona and when classes start it’s mostly gonna be online. I will try my best to still make friends but I feel the odds are against me.
You’ll get through it bud.
I feel you I have 0 friends tbh
@@shelbygray2214 same I’m 24 I am going to start taking classes at a community collage hopefully make some sort of friends but always kind of been clueless is to go about even making friends in the first place lol. I’ve always been shy and introverted but at the same time would love to find my soul mate that we would be friends forever
Any tips for university pre meds? It’s my goal to study med as well.
I’d 100% be your friend:)
it's really helpful for me cuz I'm an introverted person, even though I start college next year. thank you so much 💛💛💛
aww you got this!! I promise you'll find people just like you :) best wishes!
Hi I’m late how did it go ?
Could we get an update? 😮
@@mikaelag3974 must be going good she doesn’t even have time to check her phone 😂
How will you be an introvert..
“#1 orientation week”
hahaha we don’t have an orientation week where I’m attending because of corona
Dat profile pic is AMAZING
delirium-san tanks
Yeah same here :/ all the opening week events got cancelled!
HOPE IT WORKED OUT KATE
Katie Tracy It actually did work out lol, I have three new really close friends now, I’ve never had such close friends before!!
Idk why I’m tripping I usually make friends very easily but I’m just convinced I’m not going to be able to once I step on campus lmao
Sameeeee
So how did it go lmao
you already made 20 friends in the first day!?
Do you know that if you smile you can't breathe?
In reality we can, i just wanted to make you smile❤
Love this 🥺
I know hahahah but I wanted to smile anyway 😊
Woww thank you
Awww❤
i just dont know like it feels weird to walk up to someone n say hey, like wat am i gonna say next? awkward silence?
THIS IS ME😭😭😂
"hey I just saw you and since I'm new too could we stay together a while and get to know each other?" (for someone alone) and for a group of people it could be "Hi sorry to interrupt you guys but I am new and you seem cool so can i stay with you?"
Btw it's just how I would say it not really and advice, hope that help 😅
Just say hey “I know we’re both new to this you want to go through it together” talk ask questions about classes majors the school and exchange socials trust me everyone wants to make friends on first day of school
Same
@@thegrinch-rw8xy too scared to start a conversation because in my imagination they will say “no leave us alone” lol i know thats likely not gonna happen but cant control this anxiety
University alumni here. To shed light for people, one of the best ways I made friends was Through student clubs or attending events, and putting yourself out there. That'll depend on time you have in your schedule with classes and all that, but friendships will come.
Or start one too. I loved University for that because student clubs allow you to explore interest areas and seek and discover what you enjoy and care about. It makes the experience that much more enriching than just attending classes for however many years. It's worth making the most of it if you have time.
any tips for freshman in the fall with corona? 😭 all my classes are online but i’m living on campus
girl same i’m very nervous
HII I just saw this but how'd it go?
@@KatieTracy as someone who's finishing up freshman year and is an introvert I made no new real friends, although there are some people I'm friendly with.
Lonely bros leave a like
🙋♂️
My anxious butt watching this because im scared to go to college
Same 😭
Same :(
Howd it go!
This is so helpful, I move in to college this week 😩
Love your bts content & I’m making some too! 🌻
Howd it go?!?
I know I should always be myself but I also want to change my personality in some ways when I go to college 😳 throughout my k-12 years I’ve been introverted and kinda awk in school bc I didn’t hang out with the right friend groups early on, so I just kinda felt left out at times. But I’m super outgoing when I’m with my friends.
I’m hoping that in college, I literally have a brand new start and if I immediately come off as outgoing and extroverted that could be my new image..
idk if that’ll work lmao but let’s see
(Sorry this rant was unnecessary but had to share 💜)
Are you in college now? How did it go?💛
Hi, former introvert here. I used to be very shy, socially awkward, and barely talked in class/talked to new people. But, throughout the past six months, I have reached out to more people, such as my professors, friends, and classmates. Just be yourself and be open
I had orientation and I feel like everyone already knew each other and I'm scared ppl are rude and don't wanna talk to me but my sister says I need to make friends I just don't know how to start a interesting convo with a stranger
I'm really scared right now : ( omg I'm an incoming freshman.
i also talked about making friends in my what i wish i knew before my freshman year of college video! i think it’s great to have different groups of friends-friends in classes, your dorm, clubs, to study with, etc so you don’t feel super confined by hanging out w the same people 24/7!
mira d ^^ THIS is great advice!! Such an important new idea with different friends groups in college :) thanks for sharing and good luck with your channel!🤗💖
I'm going away for college in a week. I'm so nervous and excited ahhh
Update?
How's it going now?
@@uhm9469 she probably didn't make it out alive lol
My first day in highschool.......I didn't make friends :'D
College scares me now-
Five months into college and I still ain’t got no friends 🥲 just like two acquaintances I never see
First year in college: no friends yet! XD
Ik I'm a senior no buddies
@@Godongo how about assignment how you can survived without friends?
@@billyt6841 all the assignments were easy, so I didn't need friends for them if that's what you mean? 🤔
Katie: How much do you love me?
Me- Nothing much just infinity and beyond 😍
I’ve made a couple of class friends but I don’t know how to find hangout friends. Class friends only talk to u about class work and in class.
Thisss
Try making the hangouts yourself get their numbers hey I'm bored do u wanna hang out tonight?
Bro I really hope that covid doesn’t ruin all the start of school year things for freshman. I literally no one going to my college and I won’t even have a roommate because of social distancing. I don’t know what’s gonna happen :(
Mangos Papayas I feel yah 😭😭none of my friends are going to the same college as me RIP
Liliana Mendoza Delgado hahaha so update. It’s incredibly hard to make friends because no one in my hall has their doors open and are hanging out in the lobby so it’s low key annoying. But I just had a floor meeting and almost everyone wants to make friends we are all just trapped inside due to covid. So hopefully things will get better.
I know it’s scary going to a new place. But I’ve been here 4 days and I’m kinda vibing??? Like I’m still super anxious. But the first week everyone. Literally everyone is looking for friends so don’t be afraid to put yourself out there. This is coming from someone with lots of social anxiety. You’ll be aye ok! Just take baby steps. And soon you’ll be a blooming flower. I believe in you! 💗

you already made 20 friends in the first day!?
These videos are so helpful and reassuring! You really are making an impact in the world and I hope you realize that Katie
Justin Smith ahh you are too kind.😫thank you Justin! It really means a lot to me!
ANOTHER VIDEO FROM MY FAVE VLOGGER IN MY FAVE BG LKNSJDKNSUEHWJEW love u
Thank you so much for making this video 👀 this would surely help incoming college freshmans.. again thank youu
I’ve been in college for a while now and haven’t made any friends (but I also have not made the effort cuz I’m terrified and have never had to make new friends before lol). Thanks for the tips, I want to try and be more outgoing instead of just using academics as an excuse to not go out.
What about going to a event by yourself. I went with my floor group and I still was lonely bc they group up.
Ya this happens to every event i've gone to so far, it's just people grouping up with people they already know and not talking to anyone else really
Still gonna be lonely :((((
I will be flying to Cornell in just 4 days! This video is so clutch Katie!!
AH HAVE A BLAST!! Safe trip and hopefully see you soon!
Hi
You already made 20 friends on the first dayyyyyyyyy ?????!!!!!! 😢
Hit like if you love Katie
Already done the first day and that was the most awkward 11 hours of me with my classmates.
ahh I wish you the best with the rest of the year!!❤️
@@KatieTracy thanks!!❤️
Abt to statt uni in 10 days. Super shy and social anxious bruh. Gonna update this in a month if i dont forget. Lets see how it goes...
it's been 10 months. How's it going?
@@not_zara completely forgot about that. Didn't meet anyone the first day. Second day a guy just came up and said hi with his friend. So i hung with both of them in uni, but we never rlly had anything in common or went to any parties :(. The guy who said hi also left after this semester, so now im down to one friend who all i do with is going to the lectures. Hope to meet sum new people but its hard lol
Tried all of these and so far have been met with apathy, ghosting, or people using me. I now have trust issues because of this and zero friends irl. I have nothing wrong with me when it comes to being social... Im just broken now
I fell you bro
I don’t start college till next fall but I’m definitely going to need to save this video!
I have a channel too ❤️
Howd it go!?!?
Bru, the first semester is almost over and I still know no one 🥲🥲
Did you meet anyone?
@@mexicanwaffle5895 yeah, had a couple of group projects and talked to a couple of students. But even then, I could never seem to keep a connection. It’s been like that since elementary so it might just be me 😅
I am in 7th sem currently and I haven't made it yet😭😆
It sucks so much. I'm in my fifth semester and don't have a single friend...
I didn't make it till 7 sem
5 months 0 friends
Thank you thank you! I'm starting college in the fall and I'm honestly terrified because I'm totally an introvert.
I just started college and I have a few friends and stuff but idk, they dont feel like best friends:/ I try to talk to new people and I just feel really lonely lol
honestly, I still don’t feel like I have one “best friend” but I think that’s how college friendships are for a lot of people and it lets you discover more about yourself by meeting all kinds of people :) it’s totally normal so just keep putting yourself out there!
im gonna rewatch all these college videos again next year when i start college . thank u for this you wonderful angel! love uuuuuu
Hi just here to express my concerns. I am starting my second semesters and my closest friends are all not coming back this term. I feel like I need to meet new people and make friends all over again :( I am excited for college but also anxious😣
THANK U KATIE this is super helpfulll! :))
ah yay!! Thank you cindy🤗💖
Having no friends before and getting along with alot of friends at first is a huge progress
University in Belgium sucks. I mean the only way to make friends is by drinking. Cause yeah legal drinking age here is 16 yo. If you don't drink... It gets wayyy hardee already
All your videos are so reassuring and I can't wait to see you on campus omg !!!!
bellereed omgg I’m so happy to hear that AHH SO EXCITING!! And dead KT tracy land AHAH it’ll be yours girl😉 hope to see you soon!❤️
My first day of college is Sep 4th.. im sooo scared because im going to be walking in alone, god pray for me😬😭🙏🏾
i start on on the 2nd september and i am sOooo nervous but i will be walking in with my best friend the first day sooo that's gonna be okay i guess
jess evans you’re so lucky goodluck
I am a friendly person😅 i love to make new friends🤗💓love yah😘
Katie is an angel always uploading the best content and the right moment
Iv got collage in in like 6 hours I should be asleep but my anxiety is going crazy I'm in the uk
ahh please rest and take care!! you'll be okay! we're all just doing our best given everything.
I'm moving to a whole new country for college in few months and im so scared cause English is not my first language and I have never been alone in my entire life. My parents never let me be alone but now suddenly being all on my own is really making me anxious. I want to make new friends but idk how it is like in that country, are people friendly or anything:( I'm super introverted and I have huge anxiety like I wouldn't even ask someone for help even if I'm in pain
aw wow, I can imagine how scary this can feel. I get how these nerves feel. I used to be really scared to ask for help too. I wonder if you can try to overcome this by talking to people you trust first? they can help you build your confidence! whatever happens, I’m rooting for you and I know you will grow so much. be brave❤️
I’m moving to a different country in about 3 months or so for college and i’m so so nervous, i’ve never lived away from my family and friends and this is honestly a very big deal for me and added to that is the language barrier too since english isn’t my first language, i really hope i make some good friends there and fit in.
Don't worry
Everything will be fine
Where you going though?
"Orientation week".. oops I'm a sophomore
this is so helpful since i'm going to college next school year
@William Shakespeare i'm an incoming freshman now and our classes will probably start around the first week of September but it will be online so finding friends will surely be a challenge
I have a lot of time to go to university, 5 years, and i’ll probably study in the U.S (im From Venezuela) I really hope I get a lot of friends hehe, im also kinda scared bc im going to be far From my family
i need this cause im awkward and all ahhaa NOTIF SQUAD!!!
same girl same
this will help me ik. THANK U SO MUCH FOR BEING SO THOUGHTFUL AND SELFLESS 🖤👏🏻
I started yesterday and only made 1 friend
tomorrow is my first day of college and i'm nervous asfff. i've always been an introvert so i rarely have any friends, i don't know how i'm going to survive tomorrow. hopefully i make friends-
How did it go
This is rly helpful for making friends in general THANKS!!!
im going into my sophomore year and im
super nervous! i didn’t have many friends freshman year because classes were online so everyone was stuck in their dorms, and the people i did meet we stopped talking after school ended. this year i live off campus in my own apartment next to a neighboring school so most of them are in that university and not mine. i’m nervous everyone will be closer to eachother since they go to the same school…i’m going to try superrrr hard to build confidence and make friends. my goal is to take EVERY opportunity to talk to someone, and stop making excuses that i’m “too scared” or “too exhausted”
I'm an exchange student and have missed the first few months of freshman. I'm doomed...
you’ll totally be okay!! people are constantly making friends any time of the year. I made some of my best friends my 4th year of college :)
It’s going to be a few years later, but it’s kinda nerve racking because even though I was the new kid in late grade 8, I was only able to make friends with everyone there because my batch mates are the friendliest people I’ve met, and there’s only 30 people in the whole batch.
As an omnivert, this is sort of a concern? Idk people seem to gravitate towards me after some time but I never really engage so I come off as secluded and rude sometimes but that fr isn’t my intention😂😭
Lol
I'm laaaateeee😔😍😍 this is very helpful 😍😘💗 thank you😍♥️
How To Make Friends In Community College, see here www.lovevoices.com/how-to-make-friends-in-community-college/
starting college next week and i don’t know anyone there.
Any progress?😅
Approching people is not hard for me but main problem i was communication. After introducing about yourself, talk about studies now what we talk after that. I donot understand how to keep conversation going or other word i donot know how to make long and deep conversation so that we make best friends not friend for time pass. Please help me to solve this problem 😢😢
I really want new friends and I’m in my sophomore year in college. Some of my old friends go to my college but we all have different schedules and it’s impossible for us to meet up. The semester is ending in a few weeks and I didn’t attend any of the club and job fairs or any event my college had. I just get a bit nervous trying to meet new people. Hopefully next semester. I just hope I can make at least one friend by the time I finish college. I got two years left so here’s hoping.
I’m transferring to Cornell this Spring as a junior and am extremely nervous about meeting new people since I’ve never lived on a college campus before and don’t know anyone there. Your videos are so helpful and great in preparing me for this new journey. Thank you! Keep it up!
Good luck with finals.
I’m a senior in high school, senior year didn’t even start yet LOL idk why I’m stressing about this so much
When you mentioned the class of 2023 pages being good and active I felt a lot of pride since I’m in that class lollll haha
AYEE that’s awesome!!😍👏🏼 have a blast at o-week!
Katie Tracy THANK YOU! 💕
You already made 20 friends in the first day!?
bro dont worry about it? i didnt make a single friend first two semesters and its not looking good summer semester. i have big muscles and lots of hobbies i just have a bad personality so idk what to work on.
I start tomorrow and I just got really f nervous. I've never been very good at making friends
I was watching a video about making friends in college and the girl in the video said that most of the times you and up "hating" your roommate.
Do you agree or disagree?
there have definitely been roommate horror stories but I love my roommate. :) I think as long as you get to know them before and try to request someone with compatible living habits, you'll be alright!
@@KatieTracy thank you for replying 💜💜
I'm not in college yet because I'm 11 and i have a little bit of anxiety buts it's because of cobie 19 but i. Worried that I'm not tall enough to be a 11 year old wish you good luck
Do a covid version!!!
omg needed this cause I just moved to a different school!! 🏫💛 #notifsquad
Ahahaha remember how we met during the PREPARE picnic?? Loving your recent vids 😊❤
Sanjana Namreen GIRL OFC😫❤️ IN THE BUS ACTUALLY!!🤪
Iyieeeee myy sistahh your so beautiful hihi hoping to seeyou hihi iloveyou sistahh
It help to have alot friend
Can you please do a like what you need to learn to get into Harvard
yes, check out my "college 101" series on my channel! :) I interview friends who got in + share my biggest regrets you should avoid.
i’m struggling so terribly to make friends. i live 40 minutes away from my campus, so i don’t get to spend too much time there before i have to come back home. i went to one club meeting, but i got cold feet and left once the meeting ended and didn’t talk to anyone. i want to keep attending things next week, my goal is to make ONE new friend this week. i’m gonna drive myself insane if i don’t.
Why am I watching college vids when im still in 11th grade-
Same lmao but I'm in 8th 🤣
Its_fela lmao for me its because i might go to the college closer to my house so I wouldn’t have a dorm.
I saw how some end up being best friends with their dorm mates so yeah lol
Preparation is guaranteed for all
You’re one of my biggest inspirations 😍 mahal kita!!! 🤪❤️
MAHAL KITA AW❤️
I would have been your friend if I met you..! :o
Arance .O whaa ofc do u go to cornell??
@@KatieTracy oh, I go to Cal, so I can only be your online friend for now..lol. I think you're very cute, though.
My cousin went to collage and people were very friendly and she made a lot of friends 😊😊😊 good video
aw that's awesome!! happy for her❤️
havent made friends yet... hope this helps
I still don't know anyone... And it's my 2nd year of college lmaoo
Me who has social anxiety can't relate ..I'm gonna be fuckin lonely for the rest of my life I swear:)
I feel the same bro this world is not friendly to introverts
You was scared, anxious, desperate because you had no friends, but that is norm to me
I go to a small college in the uk and I have made friends, I’m about to go into my final year, but I do feel that a lot of the friends I made in first year have drifted away or have moved and I’m afraid of feeling lonely when I go back in September... I’m sure I’ll be alright and have tons of studying to do but I am worried as I don’t like partying and my college doesn’t really have clubs or anything like that to really get involved in... I’m sure I’ll figure it out though! Thanks for the video! And good luck to everyone starting college soon! ✨
wow thanks for sharing your wisdom emma❤️ I'm sure you'll be fine!! I hear from upperclassmen friends it's totally normal to drift from friends you make the first year because you change and you have a better idea of what kind of friends/community you look for. You'll find people just like you who also don't like partying and when you do, it'll be a great connection. Just keep putting yourself out there. :) Good luck!
Katie Tracy aw thank you, that’s very true! I’m sure I’ll be fine, and I’ll try to get more involved with things that i see coming up like events or other things in my area to see if I can make new friends! A couple of great close friends are much better than a lot of friends that aren’t as close! I just want to make the most of my final year! Thank you 😊
What kind of fairy tale did I watch 😂
guys like school in uni there are a lot of social events for you to purposefully make friends
Also a rising sophomore at Cornell! Love your videos!!
Omg that’s so cool!! Thank you sm and hope to see you around!❤️
@@KatieTracy I hope to see you around too!
I love your top 🥰
I am in the end of 1st semester and I haven't made any friends....... How to do that?? 🥲🥲 plz tell me
same
Yayyy new video!!! ❤️
I was sick the first week of college and joining from second week. On first day I felt so alone and that everyone has friends but me . 😭😭 I feel like I'm bothering people if I jump into their groups
aw girl trust me, most of those groups formed because people feel the exact same way you do! they look super close, but after a few weeks I noticed they went off to find other friends. you got this girl! it takes patience and effort
how did you go?, i came 1 month later and something similar happened to me
I’m a junior in high school which means I’m starting to look at colleges so this helped my stress
