Transitioning from high school to college is exciting because we are crossing new uncharted territories, but at the same time it's terrifying because, let's be real, who's actually prepared to be completely on their own in a strange town essentially starting life all over again? No matter whether you go to school one hour away from home or twelve hours, I have found that we are all breaking boundaries. Altogether, college means freedom and with freedom comes responsibility; something that most of us don't really have much of. However, college is bliss, it's the beginning of a new era in life with endless possibilities. With that being said here are 21 thoughts that every freshmen has first semester of college:
Week 1:
1. I'm at camp and my parents are picking me up in a week.
2. What is a syllabus and why does it have a week named after it?
3. Yes, mom, this is my fourth night of going out but it's okay - it's syllabus week.
Week 2:
4. Syllabus week is over; from now on I will not miss any classes.
Week 4:
5. I think I have strep, the flu, and I've just been diagnosed with the plague.
6. I studied for that test for 5 hours how did I only get a 70?
