There's always a group of gamers and geeks near the entrance of my university's student center; they are usually playing Magic on the table or something on their laptops. I don't know for sure because I have been too afraid to say hello or even look at them directly. There's always like 15 or 20 of them and one of me. What am I going to say? I haven't gotten into Magic mainly because I haven't had anybody around to get into it *with*. What's the point of getting cards if you have nobody to play with? I've started up a Warhammer 40,000 model hobby (slowly but surely, that stuff is expensive) lately because at least one can paint the models in any color scheme and get a distinctive and cool look.

This has been going on for the whole two years that I have been attending classes there. I am never sure of what to say to them, or who to start with. I don't know any of their names, have not spoken to them, and to the best of my knowledge I do not and have not ever had classes with any of them. Which infuriates me to no end because they seem like the kind of people I could have been friends with by now. But I transferring to another university next semester (for unrelated reasons), so I think it might be too late for me already. I feel that way towards pretty much everything now.
