But once you learn to make the best of a bad situation and understand that struggle makes success that much sweeter you can start to laugh again and ride these rough times into all the good times ahead. Enjoy spending time with you, but also, try to surround yourself with positive people and make an effort to get involved. Over time, you will make a lot friends and find your place at school. Change is overwhelming and a little anxiety is expected. Use all your resources at school to find a job.
Most colleges have jobs for s on campus to work part-time and help defray expenses.
If you still can't find work on campus find an emergency loan. Talk to a financial aide counselor as soon as possible and make arrangements. As for your friend, you don't need him. You came to college to make new friends - not to hang out with an old tag along. If you're still feeling down, talk to a counselor.
