35 Thoughts Every College Freshman Has

For incoming college freshman who have lived at home all of their lives, it is definitely a hard transition. You go from living under your parents roof to living on your own in a tiny dorm room with a roommate. It is such a scary feeling, but it is also quite the rollercoaster. Throughout your first year of college, you're adjusting to new things such as waking up for 8am classes, having more school work to do, college food, and trying to balance a social life with all of it. It can be quite challenging. To any incoming freshman that is currently reading this article, just know that freshman year is supposed to be one of the easiest years in your college career, so enjoy it! Here are twenty thoughts that every college freshman (hey, even every college student) has throughout their first few semesters of college.

3. **Tomorrow comes** **Hits snooze button**

4. "UGH IT'S MONDAY!"

5. "Is it Friday yet?"

6. "God the food is awful."

7. "Should I work out, eat, study, socialize, or cry?"

16. "Can these gen ed classes be done already?"

17. "Still don't know what I want to do with my life..."

18. "Maybe if I make my bed I'll be less tempted to take a nap."

19. "How many more years of this?!"

20. "I have absolutely no idea what I am doing, so I'll act like I do and maybe no one will notice."

21. Why did I think it was a good idea to register for an 8am class?"

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.

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.
