What does this make me compared to my classmates?

I'm 20, and am a 2nd Year student at University. The majority of the people I've met in my course laugh and make jokes/banter about things which I don't understand or find funny at all. And they engage in so much gossip and trivial topics like TV shows and celebrities. I find most of the conversations dull and shallow.

I don't mind doing some small talk so I can just communicate for the sake of communicating without appearing to ignore them. But it's as if banter/gossip/small talk is all they care about. When I do try to talk about something deeper/philosophical things, they're reluctant to talk about it, they ignore what I say, or they make jokes on my comments.

I'm not upset coz I have friends outside my Uni course but I'm a bit annoyed in the way they behave. I feel like the black sheep within my year, like I don't really fit in. I do find some things humorous/amusing, but the antics and stuff they say/do is just too much in my opinion!
