You’re not childish at all.

I think as far as college goes, where you go to school and what your area of study is can make a difference. If you’re not getting good vibes from a school and aren’t studying a major that you’re interested in, it can be hard to succeed. In my experience it’s easier to study when the information is relevant to your interests. I’m not saying it’s ever going to be fun to study, but it’s a bit easier when you actually care about what’s being taught.

There’s nothing wrong with wanting to have fun in life and not worry about how others will perceive you. Of course 100% of one’s life can’t be fun but it helps when you have some personal time for yourself to discover what you are interested in, whether it’s a hobby, skill, etc.

Some colleges have social groups on campus which may make having a social life easier. My college had tons of them. At least you’d know that they’re living a similar experience as you and they have things in common. A work/school/life balance is important.
