12 Things You Can Only Relate To If Your College Is As Small As Your High School

In This Article:

Calling all college students that go to a small school! Between the conveniently sized campus and the let's just say "limited" student body, there are many special characteristics that come with going to a small college. If this is you, these 11 things will sound like your daily life.

1. You see the same people. Everyday. Everywhere.

If you don't like your fellow classmates, Lord help you find a way to like them because there aren't many other options.

2. Being able to wear the same outfit everyday without people noticing is only a dream.

3. With the limited gene pool of people come limited dating options.

Starting to see the theme?

4. Skipping class sometimes isn't as easy as we all thought.

Aka professors will send you "concerned" emails about your attendance aka your cover is blown.

5. Campus is the perfect size. 

Who doesn't like waking up 10 minutes before class and ALWAYS making it with time to spare.

6. Professors begin to know your name.

Whether this is a good or bad thing for you, this is a big pro in the small college experience.

7. It can feel like you're back in the hallowed halls of high school.

8. It can feel as if you're living in a fish bowl. 

9. When the alumni come back for Homecoming, the real party begins.

10. Speaking of the alumni, you can really tell how much they loved their experience and how close they still are with everyone.

11. Somehow classes with more than 40 people is "big". 

12.  We can't even think about going to a bigger school.

What would we even do with ourselves? Panic probably.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

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.
