Help me out! am i being weird?

#lemon8diarychallenge

🌞 Day 1: this is my first post ever, I’d really like some advice from anyone and everyone. I’d love to be a girls girl but it’s hard. Due to that I don’t have a girl best friend to ask these to! So help me out 🙏🙌

-what’s the best way to edit and take selfies?

-What are ways I can get myself to look better (will be and update on this)

-What’s the best way to make girlfriends?

-What should I do to get ready for freshman year (college)

2024/7/20 Edited to

In today’s digital world, many young adults experience challenges in forming friendships, particularly during pivotal life transitions like starting college. Techniques for taking great selfies often include natural lighting, using angles to flatter your face, and finding the right editing apps to enhance your photos without overdoing it. Making friends can begin with simple conversations; participating in clubs or groups related to your interests provides a great way to connect with like-minded individuals. Preparing for freshman year involves not just academic readiness but also social acclimatization. Finding your circle of friends and sharing experiences can help in building lasting relationships. Remember, everyone feels a bit lost sometimes, and seeking guidance is always a great first step!
