Great job staying healthy and active! I think what you're going through is fairly normal. If you are super ambitious, want to start a company and work on side projects, realise that it puts you in sub 1% of the population. Most people around you will not have that same level of drive and ambition, especially in a small town. And that's ok. Also CS programs are 'one size fits all'. Here's some things you can try: - Grow your side projects, learn a lot and help more people (and make more $) - Find online communities to join like contributing to open source projects - Focus on specific activities you like (sports, cooking, movies...) and find folks that share that specific interest, even if you don't have much in common otherwise - Keep learning more about what you're passionate about online, do cold outreach - Date interesting people who have very different interests and backgrounds - Reach out to second/third degree connections working in industries you find interesting (they're always looking for great folks) - Create a club based on your background/shared interest
