College truly is one big roller coaster of emotions. Between deadlines and late night studying - to hanging out with your friends and laughing way too hard.. you will go through emotions you didn't even know existed. I'm here to tell you that in the end it will all be worth it. Fasten those seat belts and enjoy the ride.

1. The "PICKING MY COLLEGE" phase

Picking your school is one of the most, if not the most, crucial part of your experience. Finding a school that fits you, has the major you want, is in a good location, and with the perfect community... It's exhausting. Once you find that perfect school, you will know!

2.The "I'M SO EXCITED TO MOVE IN" phase

Move in day is one of the most exciting/nerve racking days of your life. Trust me, you have no idea what is about to happen in the next few years of your life.

3. The "FIRST DAY OF CLASS" phase

We all do it. We wake up early for the first few days, do our hair, our makeup, wear real clothes... That will all change by week 2. Believe me.

4. The "MIDTERM" phase

Never in the history of your life... did you expect midterms to be so hard. Your first midterm or test WILL surprise you. They get better. You will learn from there how you should study to make the following ones way easier.

5. The "FINALS" phase

After you perfected the midterm phase, you will then run into your first final. Let me tell you, finals may kick your butt. But don't let them bring you down. Bucker-Down, put a movie on, and eat that tub of ice cream like no one's watching.

6. Last, but not least, the "SUMMER" phase

YOU DID IT!! YOU MADE IT THROUGH YOUR FIRST YEAR OF COLLEGE! Now, sit back, relax, and take advantage of your vacation time. I promise you.. It'll go so fast. You will blink and you will be moving back into school. College is one hell of a ride. But take advantage of it, because one day you will look back and realize it was all so worth it.
