10 Thing You Did Not Miss About UD

Because it's easy to say all the things you missed.

10 Thing You Did Not Miss About UD

Let me start by saying I love UD. And if you aren't from UD, you need to know that people love UD, like seriously loveeee it. And with any loving relationship, there will always be bumps in the road. There are a million and one things I could say about all the wonderful things I missed about my school over the summer, but my sarcastic self decided to focus more on the annoying quirks instead. Because, let's face it, UD students love complaining.

1. UD Secure

Or old faithful, as I call her.

2. All the bodies at the RecPlex

Like go away and let me sweat in peace and without judgement.

3. Up the Orgs on the hottest day of the year

Why does this day defy all acts of nature and always end up being the sunniest, hottest day of the year? Nothing says join my organization like skin cancer and pit stains.

4. Fines

For everything. A random can in your yard? Fined. Forgot to take your trash back from the curb? Fined. House wasn't clean enough at the end of the year? Fined.

5. The $210 dollar parking pass

Because the University needs money to repave every parking lot except the one you are using.

6. The lines at the Runway

I just want my dang KU sandwich at a reasonable hour of the day. Is that too much to ask?

7.The walk up Stuart hill

Each year the climb seems steeper and longer.

8. Fire alarms

In your dorms, in your apartments, (if you have my luck) in your house. You can't escape the blaring drills that happen twice a semester.

9. Resetting your Porches password

It wouldn't be a big deal if we didn't have to do it 52 million times, and always on the most inconvenient day like right before finals. And if it didn't shatter your whole world after you change it, while you manually renter it into every site and the wifi. Also why are the requirements so complicated? My password is like cracking Da Vinci's code with all the random weird requirements it has me follow: one number, one symbol, one uppercase, the last four digits of your social security, the name of your childhood pet, etc.

10. Tuition.

Because $52,000 dollars a year ain't no thang, right?

I think the hardest thing about going away to college is figuring out how to become an adult. Leaving a household where your parents took care of literally everything (thanks, Mom!) and suddenly becoming your own boss is overwhelming. I feel like I'm doing a pretty good job of being a grown-up, but once in awhile I do something that really makes me feel like I'm #adulting. Twenty-somethings know what I'm talking about.

I went to a small high school, like 120-people-in-my-graduating-class small. It definitely had some good and some bad, and if you also went to a small high school, I’m sure you’ll relate to the things that I went through.

1. If something happens, everyone knows about it

Who hooked up with whom at the party? Yeah, heard about that an hour after it happened. You failed a test? Sorry, saw on Twitter last period. Facebook fight or, God forbid, real fight? It was on half the class’ Snapchat story half an hour ago. No matter what you do, someone will know about it.

Chandler Bing

I'm assuming that we've all heard of the hit 90's TV series, Friends, right? Who hasn't? Admittedly, I had pretty low expectations when I first started binge watching the show on Netflix, but I quickly became addicted.

Without a doubt, Chandler Bing is the most relatable character, and there isn't an episode where I don't find myself thinking, Yup, Iam definitely the Chandler of my friend group.

Working with the public can be a job, in and of itself. Some people are just plain rude for no reason. But regardless of how your day is going, always having to be in the best of moods, or at least act like it... right?

1. When a customer wants to return a product, hands you the receipt, where is printed "ALL SALES ARE FINAL" in all caps.

2. Just because you might be having a bad day, and you're in a crappy mood, doesn't make it okay for you to yell at me or be rude to me. I'm a person with feelings, just like you.

3. People refusing to be put on hold when a customer is standing right in front of you. Oh, how I wish I could just hang up on you!
