Sophomore year is full of ups and downs. You are no longer the newbie on campus. You are expected to know more about life, living on your own, how to handle specific situations and to be used to college by now. But guess what? You don't and you are just keeping it together so your life doesn't look like its in shambles. We're all just barely scraping by sophomore year. But you know what, we're all in this together and hopefully by the end of it we can come out on top and as fabulous as the perfect Blair Waldorf.
You hear a Freshman complain about an entry level course.
You took the exact course last year and complained about it also. You are now in much harder classes. What you wouldn't give to go back to the class they are complaining about.
You have your friends.
By sophomore year you have already found where you fit in. You have your people, your squad. You can go to them with anything weather it be advice or your in need of something to wear. You also can depend on these people to be there for you during your mental breakdowns or to just be there to go on wild adventures with.
You are confident in what you are doing.
You know what you want and you go for it. You have your eyes on an internship, you go for it. You have your eyes on a table in the library, you fight for it. You want that boy in your 7:45 to ask you on a date, you go to the 7:45 and you make yourself look like an actual human being.
But then you are not so sure.
You are not so sure who you are at some points. You are growing up and leaving some of your normal behaviors behind and that calls for some kind of self questioning. You'll get through it I promise.
You've learned how to get through things.
You've learned how to handle an all nighter. You've learned how to handle that boy who screwed you over. You won't be weak when it comes to anything.
You've learned what to wear and what not to wear.
Weather you have figured out that tights do not count as pants or you've learned how to dress for the weather. You have learned the norms of attire at your school and you've either decided to follow them or not to follow them.
You've made a name for yourself on campus.
Maybe it's not crazy bitch, maybe it is I'm not judging, but you have been here long enough that you know people and people know you. What your known for is up to you.
You have valuable life advice.
You've been through your fair share of crisis. So you know how to help others handle their crisis if needed. You also handle your own crisis better because of past experiences.
