Growing up in a small town and then going to a D1 college is a big transition. For someone who only had 31 people in my graduation class, it amazes me how many people are at one university or even one classroom. Here are a few thoughts I have at least once a week.

1. Wait, this lecture hall could hold my whole school K-12.

How can these many people be organized into one area? Or even one teacher deal with this many people?

2. I've met more people this week than I have in my whole life.

In high school, I would just see the same people everyday. In college, I never see the same person walking twice.

3. There are so many food options!

From my dorm I have about 10 different fast food restaurants and 5 dine in. So much more than the two quick stops back home.

4. Wait, you didn't have to play sports in high school?

So, you're telling me people had to try out for sports at other high schools? We just had to show up and say we want to be on the team.

5. You graduated with 400 people? That was my whole school.

How long was your graduation though? With my 31 people it was over 2 hours?

6. You didn't just have Spanish as a foreign language option?

And you actually didn't just watch movies? Okay then...

7. Wait, you don't know them? They went to your high school!

You were in the same building with them for four years. How do you not know them?
