The Life Of Freshmen At WNE

The odd adventures of freshman year.

The Life Of Freshmen At WNE
Brooke Barup

There is a lot of things that I never thought I would be involved in, and none of them involve being a part of campus activities. Since it's been about 11 weeks since school started, a couple friends and I have weekly Walmart trips because there is always something that gets forgotten that is needed on a regular basis. Half of those trips involve fish (we might have a fish problem), but it's all for the fun of things. There's been people walking in on other people changing or going to the bathroom once every two weeks or so.

Staying up too late has become the ultimate issue when it comes to school nights and 8 am classes. You just don't do it. The thing about 8 am's is that getting up is a problem and you know that if you wake up at 7:30 a.m. you won't have time to eat and really relax and enjoy the morning because you're rushing (happens to me every single time). My conclusion about 8 am's is that they make you gain that freshman 15 because after being in class for 80 mins, you get more hungry than you started, meaning excessive eating.

Once it hits October the maintenance people shut off the air conditioning and it's still so hot that you could have a sauna in your own room for no charge at all. Those late night McGangBangs from McDonald's and Walmart trips that might be a suicide mission are on the top of my list when it comes to things you should never do, but you do it anyway.

In the words of my friends "We saved fish from Walmart and they're happier now."

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
