University is a different environment. I found that it was less cliquey. I had friends from different circles and I flowed among different circles with which I still maintain very good friendships from.

That one is so small that it doesn't have any other groups on campus or in town? The town I'm studying in has just about 60 000 inhabitants, but still enough different youth clubs. I'm sure there's one there, too?
