It's that time of year again; time for school to begin and college students to move away from home. While some anticipate the move away, this was my first year being away from home so I really wasn't sure what to expect at first. Here's how the first week away from home went, as told by the amazing TV show, "Friends."
1. Hoping your random roommate decision works out well.
Luckily, there weren't any big roommate issues, but that sure didn't stop the worry!
2. Hoping no one eats all your food.
Fortunately, none of us ever had to pull a Joey and make our food intentions clear.
3. Trying to navigate a new town.
Thank goodness for Google Maps.
4. Trying to get used to a new bedroom.
It's not as comfy as home, but hey, as long as I can get some sleep I'm good to go.
5. Making new friends every day is pretty cool.
In this small college town, almost everyone goes to the university and they're all super friendly about everything.
6. Trying to get on a regular gym routine to avoid gaining that extra college weight.
We'll see how long this lasts though.
7. Getting everything ready to take on the next school year.
Textbooks? Check. Class times and buildings? Check. Snacks for class? Double check. Time to take on the year!
8. Realizing you're now officially an adult.
It isn't that hard...yet.
9. Being in a new town and getting to experience new things.
I'm so glad this is where I chose to spend the next few years and I already love the university. My first week away was great and I'm excited to see what else it holds for me here.
