Reminds me of my time… 15+ years ago.
It’s natural to feel lonely and overwhelmed. But also remember there will be so many nice memories form this time that you will look back on.
Here is what I would advise you ( and my younger self):
Attend classes and don’t slip on discipline. No one will push you, which is great but you also have bigger responsibility to manage yourself.
Make friends. You will realise later in life that some of the best friendships happen in college. So do go out and make best use of the social scene.
Join college clubs/sports societies etc. It will hone your professional skills that will be invaluable for your career.
There will be days when you will feel depressed and homesick. All of this will forge the future you.
