I am 18 years old, first year in college.


Truthfully now, I am really bored, I don't know why, but perhaps because my friends didn't want to play with me again, they went play with others. What should I do now ?
After I saw them go with each other, I felt so sad, I immediately went quickly to library, took out 2 books but I felt really so sad that I couldn't concentrate to read anything. I went home lying on my bed thinking about different things that I actually don't even know or remember now...I am crazy...and boredom urges me to write down these things...Please give me some things you think I should listen, please...
Thank you
