14 Signs You're a Fisher Freshman
St. John Fisher College Facebook Page

1. You Wear Your Lanyard Around Your Neck

At least until we were told only freshman do it…I swear the bookstore has made at least $5,000 in lanyard sales.

2. You Have to Plan Out Meals

Because you will not, under any circumstances sit alone. Ever. Every meal requires a group message to coordinate when everyone is going and at what time. It actually makes me miss having a scheduled lunch period at school.

3. You Have to Spend 5 Minutes Calculating When You Go to Fishbowl, Cardinal or Cyber Whether to Use A Meal Swipe or Dining Dollars

How much is dinner worth? What do you mean I can’t swipe more than one meal swipe in a meal period? If I get a wrap and a drink should I use a meal swipe? Who knew getting food in college would require so much work.

4. That Awkward Moment When You Ask a Passerby Where Something Is and They Say That They're A Freshman Too

Nothing, and I mean nothing is more embarrassing. Sorry I don’t know my whole class… And this campus is pretty small so how do people at huge schools find their way around??

5. You Post a Picture of Your Room on Social Media

I swear move-in day my whole Instagram and Twitter feed was room pictures. It's nice to know I’m not the only one breaking the fire code.

6. You're Terrified of the Fisher 50

EVERYONE has warned you about it. Everyone. And maybe they aren’t wrong with milkshakes from Fishbowl, daily ice cream in Ward-Haffey and Breakfast for Dinner in Murphy. Cue the daily gym trips and salad bar voyages!

7. You're Either Kicked Out or Not Let Into Parties

“Freshman go home!”, or “Sorry no freshman allowed” are common phrases when you’re just trying to go out. Do the upperclassmen not remember that they were Freshman once too?

8. Every Conversation Starts With "So What's Your Major?"

You don’t know what else to say so you just ask name, hometown, and major. For every person. Even though you’ll forget it before the next time you see them. And with these conversations you’ll realize…

9. You've Already Met at Least 20 Nursing Majors

I swear 60 percent of the freshman class is Nursing majors. Then 20 percent is Pharmacy, 10 percent is Bio Pre-Med, and 10 percent is everything else. If your roommate isn’t a Nursing major, I can almost guarantee your suitemate or your neighbor is.

10. All Upperclassmen Somehow Know You're a Freshman Even if You Haven't Told Them

“Oh you’re a freshman right?”. …Uh what?? I’m not even wearing a lanyard… The amount of time the freshman class has been told we look like babies is unreal.

11. The GroupMe Blows Up Your Phone

Thus why a third of the group have left it. People only talk in it to promote things or talk about parties.

Don't tell but I have it muted.

12. Half the People You Meet You Were Already Friends With Them on Facebook or Followed on Instagram Before You Came Here

Thanks Fisher Class of 2020 Facebook Group for all these followers! Then there’s the awkward moment when you don’t know whether to tell someone you follow them on Instagram…

13. Your Favorite Part of the Week is the Off Campus Shuttles

We can’t have cars so how else are we going to get there?! The shuttle vans are packed full of people trying to get their weekly Pittsford Plaza or Wegmans fix.

14. Either Your Cover Photo On Facebook or Your Header on Twitter is the Class of 2020 Class Photo

If our class photo isn’t your cover photo or your header, do you even go here?

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
