College. It is a wonderful time full of all kinds of new experiences. One new thing that will drastically change from high school is your classes. You may have three classes that are one hour long or one class that is three hours long. The crazy thing about this is that you may only have one class a day or you may have five depending on how you set up your schedule.
All of this being said, you are going to have a ton of free time and now you have to ask yourself, "What am I going to do with all of my free time?" Well, here is a list of possible ideas.
1. Nap
A good nap is always a good time filler. Also college is kind of like when you were little, if you didn't get a nap you might get a little grouchy.
2. Go to work or get a job
Got to start working on paying off those student loans... or all of those late night ventures to Wal-mart.
3. Volunteer
Volunteering is a great way to open yourself to new experiences and also it looks great on a resume.
4. Go to a movie
Many town or cities that have colleges also have movie theaters who have good deals for students.
5. Start a series on Netflix
There are all kinds of things to watch on Netflix for almost anyone to watch.
6. Start four more series on Netflix
Why stop at one, keep on chugging and get comfy because there are so many things to watch.
7. Go out with friends
This is something that can be as little as going over to someones dorm/apartment to going to the club and turning up!!!!!
8. Join a campus group or organization
There is literally a campus organization for anything that you could probably ever want. Fan of board games? There is a group for that. Big in politics? Join a Democratic or Republican organization. Underwater basket weaving? Well I do not think there is a group for that, but you could totally start one if you wanted to.
9. Exercise
Terrified of gaining that dreaded Freshman 15? I am guessing that your school has a gym and you do not have to pay for it. So go hit the gym up and maybe take some of the classes that they teach there. Anyone up for cycling or maybe Zumba?
10. Eat!!!!
Well you have to use those dining meals and money on something right? Why not eat it all???
11. Another Nap
Like I said before... Naps are great.
12. Go to a sporting event
Most colleges have sporting events year round and this is a good way to show your school spirit and it is probably FREE!!!!!!
13. Homework
I guess during all of that free time you could probably do the homework that you get from your classes (I mean this may be the first thing that you should do, or you may look like this guy).
College gives you so many freedoms that you probably did not have while you were in high school. Make sure you get good grades, but also make sure you have all the fun you can!!!
