Aerowyn, try pinging to this IP and try to join it through CSS.

213.190.195.49

See if the pings are roughly the same.
If you're ping's insanely high again, then it might be possible that there's some software's blocking these CSS ports.. Seeing your ping to the Google servers were fine.

Edit:

HEY GUYS.
I just found out. If I create a server on my own, it doesn't ping me at all. In fact I was running around quite decently.
Anyone want to try playing with me? I want to get a group together. ^__^; How do I make an internet server to play on?

Yes, if you create your own server that means you'll get 0-1 ping, as you are the server, however..

-Your college might have routers blocking incoming traffic to a non port-forwarded IP, your server's IP for instance.
-Even if someone could connect, that doesn't mean that he/she would get a decent ping.

Hate to burst your bubble, but it might be true.
