The First Week Back At FGCU As Told By 16 Vines, AKA 96 Seconds Of Pure Laughter

Junior year has snuck up on me, I'm pretty sure I should still be in fifth grade. A lot has changed since my freshman year, I've moved from dorms to a house, got more tattoos and overall have become a better person. However, one thing hasn't changed, I still love vine. I even had to get a meme jar (A jar I put money in every time I quote a meme) just to curb my meme enthusiasm. I have decided to channel this meme energy into something productive.

1. ​​​The horrible parking.

Road workahead, uh, I sure wish it did. Not here at FGCU who may have 700 acres, but has absolutely no parking.

2. How I felt on the second day.

I was already behind. I tried to start strong, I even bought a planner. It has gone untouched and I already am waiting for Christmas break.

3. Me when a professor assigns homework during syllabus week.

What kind of evil person assigns homework the first week back. Relax satan please.

4. When Florida's hurricane season saves you from two weeks of classes.

Thanks, Irma!

5. When teachers randomly call on you in class.

No, ma'am, I can't tell you the square root of pi because you haven't taught us that yet!

6. When you guess an answer but are wrong.

It's the first week back I can't be expected to get right answers.

7. When you see all the incoming freshmen.

I mean I wouldn't call freshmen chickens, but they are scared of college so is it that far off?

8. When you and you new roommates actually get along.

This will only last for three days and then the drama will commence.

9. The night before you start classes again.

This moment usually happens right before I fall asleep, the night before my first class.

10. When you're already tired of campus dining, and treat yo self to Chipotle.

If 'potle isn't your life, what is? (P.S. THEY'RE NOW OPEN UNTIL 11)

11. When your math teacher comes around to check your work.

Um, yes, professor, you taught us this ten minutes ago at supersonic speed. When's drop date again?

12. When its only your second day of classes but you're ready to drop out.

A lot of students will say they're dropping out to be a stripper, but I'd rather be a dog. WOOF.

13. Why?

I have no particular scenario for this vine, it just pops in my head every time something bad happens to me.

14. Me after my first day.

I won't even mention the number of cars I asked to hit me.

15. When you see old friends and have to recap your recent events.

16. When your teacher wants you to introduce yourself.

"Hi, please say your name, major, a cool fact about you, your mothers maiden name, blood type, social security, first pet, shower time, Adderall, a glass of whiskey, and diesel jeans.

And finally, I leave you with a parting gift, vines that will cure depression. Enjoy school, and if you go to FGCU, then Good Luck Charlie.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
