It\u2019s day one of your <\/span>1,000 days at Cedarville University.<\/span><\/a> Hyped-up students wearing matching yellow or blue T-shirts and waving pool noodles line the sidewalks cheering for you as you and your parents drive down University Boulevard and pull up to your residence hall. You couldn\u2019t be more pumped. But once the excitement wears off a little, your parents head home, and it\u2019s just you and your room full of half-unpacked stuff in a new world, you realize that you know no one (or next to no one) besides your roommate, and you may not even know them. That can be very overwhelming.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Don\u2019t panic, you\u2019re not the only one who might feel like this! Cedarville is a place that fosters good friendships and has so many ways that you can get involved, get out there, and meet people. This post isn\u2019t just for the introvert who might be more reserved; it\u2019s also for the most extroverted of extroverts who just doesn\u2019t know where to start. So, with that, here\u2019s a little advice on getting acquainted with the Cedarville community.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n

Step outside the comfort zone.<\/b><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Put yourself out there! I know, this is way easier said than done. You\u2019re not going to get to know anyone if you don\u2019t put yourself in a position to meet anyone. When you arrive here on campus, you\u2019ll be put into something called a<\/span> Sting Group<\/span><\/a>. Each Sting Group is made up of about 10 new students just like you and a couple upperclassmen leaders. Guys, embrace that sting group! You\u2019ll be hanging out quite a bit together for the first couple of days that you\u2019re here, so you might as well get to know them a bit! It can be weird to spend a bunch of time with strangers, so don\u2019t <\/span>stay<\/span><\/i> strangers. Ask questions. Break the ice. Say \u201chi\u201d when you pass on the sidewalk instead of looking down at your feet. Talk to people in your unit or hall, introduce yourself to others in your classes. Step outside your comfort zone, and make an effort to get to know people you don\u2019t, even if it\u2019s not easy or is a little uncomfortable at first!<\/span><\/p>\n

Be okay with being the one to reach out.<\/b><\/p>\n

Don\u2019t always wait for an invitation; <\/span>be an inviter<\/b>! After you\u2019ve met some people and see lots of familiar faces, it can be easy to have the mindset of, \u201cif they want to hang out with me, they\u2019ll ask.\u201d This is true, but try not to hold others to high expectations, making it their job only to ask, and don\u2019t be afraid to be the initiator, to seek others out, and to branch out! Getting to know one or two people really well is a great thing, but it\u2019s also really good to <\/span>grow your circle<\/span><\/i> a little bit. Having more than a few people you can look out for and who can look out for you, uphold and hold one another accountable is a wise idea.<\/span><\/p>\n

Limit the time you spend looking at screens.<\/b><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/b>Let\u2019s be honest, we all spend a little too much time on screens. I don\u2019t know about you, but personally, whenever I spend less time scrolling and more time socializing, I go to bed feeling better about my day knowing I\u2019ve invested my time well. So, rather than playing another game or watching a few more stories, make it a point to be present. One thing that helps me with this is setting time limits on my apps so that I don\u2019t accidentally get sucked in for hours.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Another thing that will really benefit you and will help grow meaningful relationships is when you\u2019re with someone, truly <\/span>be with someone<\/span><\/i>. A popular term or idea that\u2019s heavily emphasized here at Cedarville is \u201cintentional community\u201d: deliberately, intentionally seeking out and building authentic relationships with those around us to cultivate deep relationships that point each other toward Christ. Oftentimes when I\u2019m walking around campus and I see people getting coffee or meals together, their screens are gone as they are listening intently to one another. Leaving the screens out of sight, out of mind has a huge impact on the deepening and enriching of your relationships. By putting the phone away, you show others that your relationship with them is more important than your relationship with your phone. It always means so much to me when I sit down with a friend and they put their phone away \u2014 it shows me that I matter to them. Keeping your screen close when you\u2019re with someone else can be<\/span> detrimental<\/span><\/a>, and turning it off for a minute can make all the difference!<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/b>Branching out, meeting people, stepping outside the comfort zone is not an easy thing to do, and it can be a little intimidating at first, so I hope these little bits of advice are helpful. But just a word of warning, be careful that you aren\u2019t consumed by trying to fit in or please people, trying to find satisfaction or identity in people, or idolizing relationships with others. Make sure you\u2019re devoting time to your relationship with Christ, too, and take time to thank Him for the people He\u2019s placed around you! Friendship is a good gift from God; don\u2019t be afraid of going after it, all the while keeping your focus on Him!<\/span><\/p>\n
