How can I join in on their conversations?

i dont know what is it, but ive just attended college and im having a great time, ive made a few friends and enjoy going on nights out with them, however, i feel i cant really talk to them for long and i feel we dont have much in common, its different when your out and having a drink as all we do is dance and chat drunkley to eachother, but when were on our own i find thier all getting along great and im always lisening to the conversation rather than joining, and when i return back home its such a relief to see my old friends who im use to. i was quite shy when i was younger but not anymore so maybe this is the problem, peraps the shyness is creeping back up on me, i dont think its anything to do with confidence, is it normal for people to feel like this, if anyone can give me any tips and advice on how to socialise a bit more then that'd be great, thanks xxxxxxxx
