I suppose the question is "What are you doing to try to turn your life around?"

Thanks for the replies so far.
That is one of the roots of my problems...I go to a local school with mostly local students who tend to cling to their high school cliques. Most of them aren't real open to making new friends, they still have everybody they grew up with so they don't see a point. Of course its easier when everybody is mixed up and everybody has to make new friends.
I realize transferring schools would probably be my best option short term. However, I would have to fight my parents every step of the way to get there. My parents are very closed minded and only see long term. They get mad when I even bring up moving out. My parents are of the extremely over-protective variety.
How do I tell my parents how I really feel about this and get them to see my side? Last time I tried to talk to them about merely taking out a loan and moving on-campus, they flipped out on me and went on and on about how on-campus life would be so much worse and I was insane for considering it.
