What Our Friends Think We Do At Pepperdine

What exactly do our out of state friends think we do during a school day? I asked, they delivered.


7 a.m.: *peaceful alarm clock plays as I calmly sit up and stretch and smile at my perfect roommate*

7 a.m.: *rolls out of bed without snoozing alarm once* Ah morning. I love these days. The sun is shining, I have no life stressors, I have never felt pain.

7:15 a.m.: Since I go to Pepperdine, I wake up looking perfect everyday and have an unlimited closet. Let me just pick the most Kardashian-worthy outfit I own for school today.

7:30 a.m: I woke up so promptly for school this morning so I have time to go and grab a healthy breakfast from the 3 Michelin Star rated cafeteria. *grabs the bag I packed the night before, because I am just that good*

7:45 a.m.: *eats lobster for breakfast*

7:52 a.m.: *Shows up 8 minutes early to class to have leisurely chat with the professor just because I like them*

8-8:50 a.m.: I am so happy to be in this 8 a.m. Honestly it brightens my mornings so much. Let me make sure the professor knows that I am happy to be here by answering every question he asks as quickly and as long winded as possible.

9 a.m.: Because I go to Pepperdine I have way too much time on my hands. I only have one class a day because they would rather us get vitamin D than spend all of our time in class.

9:15 a.m.: Okay I finished all of my homework for the week. I'll just call up all of my friends who also conveniently aren't in class and we can all go to the beach.

10 a.m.: *loads up hippy van full of all of my best friends and begins filming video footage for the superiorly edited video I will make of our beach trip*

10:15 a.m. -4:30 p.m.: *spends literally all day at the beach, wears the right SPF of sunscreen and still gets a perfect tan, no one frowns the whole day*

5 p.m.: I have unlimited money so I'll just treat myself to a casual dinner at Nobu. Because that's what we do here.

5:45 p.m.: *eats a hundred dollars worth of sushi, feels no guilt*

6 p.m.: Well, it's been a great day, I better head over to see all the celebrities that just chill around here.

6:18 p.m.: *sees Taylor Swift and her entire squad, the Kardashians, Beyonce, and Bill Nye the Science Guy all casually sitting together, has a great conversation with them about their favorite beach spot, ends up getting invited to their next get together, politely declines because I "already have plans"*

8 p.m.: I wish I just didn't have so much to do all the time. Time just slips away, you know??

8:01 p.m.: *sulks at the fact that I can never do everything I want to in life*

8:20 p.m.: Ah it's getting late. I better start winding down.

8:25 p.m.: *gets in bed, doesn't bring phone because it's "bad for my health"*

8:32 p.m.: *reads a book for fun*

9 p.m.: Man, I am so exhausted. Such a good day.


In reality, we are just as busy as any other college, and although we love we love where we are, we worked hard to be here. And we are still working hard. But honestly, we do see celebs way more often than normal (shoutout to Harry Styles), we probably are more tan than you, and time really will slip away so we better enjoy this while we have it.

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.
