    Join everything! Find things you like. I hated working out but one of the girls in my chemistry class convinced me to go to a Zumba class and I haven't missed one since. Plus I've made tons of friends through the class! Also, if you can avoid it don't get a job. I know a lot of students have to work (I do too, but I babysit so I can make my own hours as needed) but if its possible just don't. I got a job waitressing at first and it was a nightmare and my grades were horrible. I quit to get my grades back up and to have a life with friends. read full review
