CockneyRebel, wow, you'll have 100,000 posts before next year. 
I really should check out Sergeant Schultz since I keep hearing about him here and have never seen him in action before.
Autism is a spectrum that allows for variations in social ability.
Is that really why? I'm a bad actress so I give performers credit. That said, are you mainly acting, as in playing a role that doesn't feel like you, or are you using skills you've learned well?
It's good to be proud of yourself when you improve on something you're working at.
Why do you suppose you have that negative feeling toward the other students at times and then realize everything's cool with them? Like, some people feel envy, some feel frustration, some feel way too disconnected, ETC?

I got this cute outfit for my avatar in Kingdom Hearts, it's supposed to be Shiki Misaki from another video game by the same developer called The World Ends With You, and I just might try it because Shiki looks sooo adorable! I love her hat.

I think why I feel negative towards other students is part by habit and part because I used to be bullied. Nobody has ever bullied me at college and in fact give me a lot of leeway but no matter how long I've known of everyone I feel nervous around them at the start of the day and during lunch unless I'm busy or we have to work in groups. How I am with the other students changes so much. They don't know my real personality.
I think also part of the reason is I like to know how to get out of a bad situation and I keep thinking they will all suddenly turn on me. I like to know about things like where the security cameras are, how I can get out of a room without anyone seeing me and stuff and because I'm thinking of things like that I can't focus on the fact that they could be my allies and we might have things in common.
I feel more comfortable if I can control situations and if I'm independent and I understand things like that, but have trouble with normal friendships and stuff so I guess that's why.
Also I'm sometimes afraid to have people know me because they can use that information in a bad way. Im working on that though. It's pretty much only in college where I feel like this and not other places.

I get that. Bullying is awful, so maybe the more you find you aren't being bullied, the more comfortable and in control you'll feel. I hope you'll gradually let a few people in on your real personality soon and focus less on means of escape.
It's amazing how things change so fast from high school senior to college freshman, and you're in your second year anyway. I feel that most people take their cue from the culture at the college and change some of their high school behaviors. What do you think?
In my case, I'm much more cautious about revealing personal info online, partly because I don't have to do it just to chat with someone, and partly because I've come across a few nasty, shady characters and a few more I felt really unsure of. At the same time, I've met a few people from online and had good experiences, so I try to balance my fear with the potential benefits.
