I'm a first year college student and in high school, I was the awkward guy who's always cracking jokes because that's all I could do. I was short and didn't have much self-esteem, even though I looked confident most of the time. After 6 months of college with new people, I've become different, more confident, and definitely a lot better at social skills. However, a couple days ago I hung out with some high school friends, and I acted like I was still in high school the whole afternoon while being aware of doing such. I just keep questioning myself why I was telling these god-awful jokes, why was I being awkward and such. I just put on a mask I thought I'd lost. Have I not learned anything? Why did I act like that? Sometimes I wish I could go back and fix those god-awful years. I was looking forward to meeting them, now I'm just depressed and honestly disgusted. I wish I knew why I act like this.

Stop being so melodramatic, six months really isn't that much time to begin with. You're still relatively the same person unless something really life changing happened.
Go through your 4 years of college, or just live 4 years really, and you'll find that your personality really will have changed.

Because that's how they know you. Everybody falls victim to this. It's safer to keep acting like the person they knew, than to change it up, and have them question what's going on. Believe me, it takes a lot of work to break out of that.
