As of this week I have been living in Tuscaloosa, at the University of Alabama for 101 days. In honor of this I decided to see if I could come up with non-class related things that I've learned since moving here.

1. Crimson 2 Go will deliver almost any restaurant to your dorm

2. Whether you're craving Moe's, Sushi or Taco Bell

3. You'll spend all of your money on it

4. Or on tee shirts

5. Comfort Colors are a very real thing

6. If you ain't talking Comfort Colors, I don't wanna talk

7. The smallest tee shirt size that's acceptable to own is a large

8. But you should probably order XL anyway

9. If you rush a sorority you'll automatically gain hundreds of Instagram followers

10. And an extra 100 likes per picture

11. Dominos takes dining dollars

12. So does Starbucks

13. And Raising Cane's

14. You'll forget what real money is because all you'll use is dining dollars and Bama Cash

15. But you'll run out before the end of the semester and you'll have to start using your card again

16. Which is painful to say the least

17. Football is serious business

18. So is Greek Life

19. And church (I see you, Highlands)

20. And southern hospitality

21. If you don't call a person ma'am or sir you're gonna get a look

22. Even if the person is only five years older than you

23. She's still ma'am

24. Tents start getting set up on Friday morning

25. Even if kick off isn't until 7:00 P.M. the next day

26. And when you wake up on Saturday morning and look out your window, it isn't surprising to see people already tailgating/selling apparel

27. Gameday has a very specific schedule for most people

28. You'll wake up to your alarm around 8:00

29. Your alarm song is most likely set to Sweet Home Alabama or Dixieland Delight

30. You shower and get into your gameday dress/outfit

31. Don't forget your gameday pins! ("ADPi Loves the Tide," "Saban/Kiffin 2016," "Harambe Loves the Tide")

32. You gather with all of your friends and walk to the house for lunch

33. You stuff yourself full of barbecue, fries, chicken fingers, etc.

32. Take cute pictures

33. Walk to the quad to tailgate

34. Get to the game, find a good spot to cheer from and get excited for the next win

35. Chacos are a thing

36. And Nike shorts

37. It's almost like a uniform

38. Because a lot of the time, it's too humid to wear any more clothing than that

39. With over half of the school coming from out of state, you will meet people from all over the country and everyone will have a different opinion

40. On politics

41. On religion

42. On what is an acceptable temperature to start wearing a coat

43. On the pronunciation of words

44. Appalachian? Caramel? Crawfish? Soda? Pop? Coke? Crayon? Pecan?

45. On what the best regional restaurants are (I'm partial to Freddy's but Cook Out, In n Out, White Castle and Whataburger beg to differ)

46. It isn't "you guys" anymore, it's "y'all"

47. Similarly, people here say "buggy" instead of "shopping cart" and I hate it

48. We don't wave pom-poms around at games, they're called shakers

49. Bear Bryant is considered a god

50. So is Nick Saban

51. Harambe is still mourned

52. The campus is huge. You'll never know every nook and cranny of it.

53. If you're lost, orient yourself around the stadium

54. There's a certain UA lingo and nicknames for everything. Going to school/living around here is like being part of an elite club.

55. The Ferg

56. Frat row (old/new)

57. BDS

58. Tut

59. Pres

60. SACPV

61. Old Rec

62. The Strip

63. And you know that when Tuscaloosa is too long to type out, you can just put good ole' "t-town"

64. Pedestrians get way too confident on campus

65. So do drivers

66. Which is probably why we've already had a few people get hit by cars this year

67. A lot of people on campus aren't from cities so they don't know which button to press when they're trying to cross the street

68. So they just press them both

69. Rush week is the worst

70. But at the same time it's kind of the best

71. You have to walk around in nice dresses and impress girls in 100 degree weather

72. Or in the pouring rain

73. You'll get dropped by a house that you loved

74. And keep getting invited back to a house that you don't love

75. You might have to choose between two houses that you don't ever want to let go of

76. But at the end of the week you'll get to run to your new home and meet all your new sisters

77. Whether you've known your big since rush week or you meet them on the day of big/little, they'll start to feel less like a random sophomore

78. And more like a real older sister

79. Your house mom will never replace your real mom

80. But she can come in a close second when you need her too

81. Especially when you're homesick

82. Your exec board will terrify you just a little bit

83. But you'll know that you want to grow up to be just like the beautiful, independent and intelligent women that they all are

84. They may not know your name

85. But you'll admire each and every one of them for different reasons

86. Fried Friday is everything

87. Even if you have nothing in your week to look forward to, Fried Friday will always be there

88. Like an old friend, ready to welcome you home after failing three tests, a quiz and forgetting you had a presentation

89. The more you're here the smaller campus will start to feel

90. But you will still refuse to ever walk from your dorm to the gym

91. What's up Bronze Route

92. Thank you for existing

93. The Student Ticket Exchange will always keep you entertained

94. Living in Tut is both a blessing and a curse

95. You'll have tons of friends

96. And study buddies

97. And access to everyone's clothing

98. But you'll have to put up with communal bathrooms

99. Alabama may not be #1 in the country for everything

100. But it definitely should be

101. Roll Tide!
