To start things off, I'm not a huge partier in the first place, but I always hear people saying sylly week is the best week. All your professors do is reviews and hand out syllabi and it's a week full of drinking and fun with your friends.
I'm confused because my syllabus week was filled with actual homework and executive board meetings and more. I had no actual time to go out and party. Like I mentioned above, I'm not a huge partier in the first place. Actually, I don't find it appealing at all. But I do like to have fun with my friends, so if I had the time to go out, I would've. But I didn't.
I don't know if it's just because I'm too devoted to school and getting a 4.0 that I have no time to do anything or if I actually really was just too busy with all of my extracurricular activities to do anything.
Sylly week isn't for me because personally, I cannot go out every single night (apparently ten nights in a row) and maintain my grade point average. I need eight hours of sleep per night and I need to focus on being the best I can be in school and my extracurricular. I care more about my grades than I care about going out and partying every night of the week. And yes, I actually happen to have homework during sylly week.
Sylly week isn't for me because I don't want to be the girl that goes out to a frat party every night. It's great if some girls have fun doing that but it's not my sort of scene. I just don't seem to enjoy myself at big parties like that. I'd rather stay inside and watch Netflix with my free time or see if my friends want to go grab dinner. I will check out new clubs on campus. I try and go to sporting events that are not football and those occurred during the week.
Sylly week isn't for me because I couldn't go out ten nights in a row. Even if I did choose to go out just one night, Sylly week pertains to the entire first week of classes and people tend to go out every night they possibly can. I'm not saying everybody is like that, but some people are and that's just not something for me. Maybe I'll go out one night a week...maybe one night every two weeks...maybe one night a month...or maybe one night in a semester.
Sylly week may be for some people, but it's just not fun for me. If it's fun for you then you do you! Sylly week to me is just like any other week to me. There will always be parties going on. I will always have homework and extracurricular activities to complete. I will always want to strive for that 4.0 grade point average and, for me, I cannot possibly complete a week of partying and all of my homework. I'm glad many people enjoy Sylly week but I just don't feel like "getting sylly."
