From Daily Prompt: When was the last time you felt really, truly lonely?

It was during my first year in university. I was from outside Jakarta, and nervous in making new friends.

The campus was abuzz with activities, laughters, and chatters; but I felt alone for I didn’t know to whom I could talk to. I was a new student, still too damn shy to talk and I was so aware with my accent that’s different from other people in the campus.

It was, hmm, 10 years ago?

Since then, I tried to talk to other people. Joined some clubs (even became the founder of some clubs in the campus! :D) then gained new friends. Good friends :)

From that point, “really, truly lonely” no more :)
