I'm going to college soon and I'm absolutely terrified of what they'll think of me. I really want to go to a public college in California to experience the "normal" life--as my mom puts it--so mostly CSUs because she said that I have to learn.
I've been in private schools all my life, I have a maid and a driver, an iPhone 5s, Xbox, Wii, DSi, and a Macbook Retina that's covered in pink rhinestones and crystals with my name. I have also never used the washing machine, cooked or ironed anything because my mom says that I will break/ruin things. To make it worse, my parents are buying me my own BMW for college. Even though my life sounds really nice, it's not because my parents don't pay attention to me because of work and they think they make everything up by buying me things. I also didn't have many friends growing up because my mom never let me out because she said that I could be kidnapped and that they'd only like me for my money. It sounds ultra cliche and fake, but this is actually true.
I'm not arrogant at all and I never show off; I actually have a very low self-esteem because I barely had any friends and I'm very shy. My "popular" sister also calls me a total loser because I'm in love with anime, manga, and video games.
Do you think that the other public university students will hate me? I'm trying to change by learning how to cook, but it's not going very well. It's because I don't want "friends" that only like me for my--well, my parents'--money. I want to have friends, but I'm scared that they'll think I'm this stuck-up, arrogant girl.
What should I change about myself? Please bear in mind that my mom will not let me handle the house chores because she says that they'll "ruin" my hands, so they'll be rough, and therefore I have absolutely zero life experience until I actually reach college.
