It's probably not boring if you choose to study.

Yeah, it's boring. This is my situation. My girlfriend is away at school, I'm here at school, I go to a different college than all of my friends, when I do see them all they do is smoke ganja really and I'm not one for that anymore, if I'm not playing a game I'm reading or studying for my certs.

Not at all.

Sure I have my ups and downs, but I realized that one day when we die, wherever we go ( I believe in heaven, others don't believe in a thin), that we look back at life, and it would be a utter waste to live it in the low.

Also, a lot of people on the off topic forum are WAY TOOO whiney. If they've travelled and seenhow different cultures live, then I could only hope they would see how selfish we can be.

OHHH, university life!!!

OK, sorry to give a speech above.

Anyhow, University life for me is great. I don't live on campus though, UT campuses charge a LOT for campus living. Now if I lived on campus, I could see it get boring at times.

It's not what I expected. But really though, your PRIMARY reason for being at Uni is study. Don't forget that and put your work in.

I hope it isn't. From what I've heard, it's going to be a great experience.

it's as boring as you make it. there are probably more opportunities to have fun than at most other times in your life but don't just expect the fun to come to you.

I am puzzled whether the knowledge we study in university is useful?

some seniors say it's no use.

Indeed. I found this out my freshman year when I did basically nothing but study and sit.

Now I'm playing intermural sports, going to bigger parties, making more friends, etc.

You have to go out and find things to do, ask around, and things will always get better.

A lot of college grads end up in a completely different field of work than their major specified, however, the knowledge/experience gained from college is VERY useful in the long run.

Ontain is right. A college life can either be hellaciously boring and uneventful if you become a hermit that never gets out and studies and confines themselves to a computer and a lone life.

Basically all it takes to enjoy your time at a university is to get out every once in a while and have a good time. The trick is not to isolate yourself, because if you do getting out and having fun gets a lot harder.

As for me personally, my life isn't boring. My roommate keeps things wild and insane, as he has his friends over all the time.

I'm sure I'm in one of the toughest universities in my country, I don't mean academically but I mean the fact that I have to attend each lecture with 800 person other than me, makes it very crowded,annoying,filled with dumb-asses who wanna fight and so on.... makes university life really boring but my only consolation is... I made new friends the good ones you rarely find,we hang out together and help each other, thats how I intend to keep my head above water in college and enjoy the couple of years I'm spending there.

Its what you make of it. If you don't want it to be boring, go out and meet people, and possible join some clubs.

Some parts of it can be boring I guess, much like living at home or whatever. But for the most part, it is interesting and busy.
