10 Thoughts You Had During Freshman Orientation
Naya Shim

1. "We're doing a chant, again?"

Oh, and it's stuck in my head now too. ESPECIALLY when you've done the same one a million times.

2. "I need a nap."

I don't think I've ever walked this much in my life in a span of four days.

3. "We literally played this game 6 times today."

I'm not getting any better at it, either. But I still low-key enjoy playing them.

4. "What time are we done today?"

8? 9? 10:30? Why is time going by so slow? I don't know if I'll make it out alive today.

5. "I recognize you, just not your name."

Thank goodness for the name tags!! (And Instagram).

6. "ANOTHER presentation?!"

I don't think I can sit through another one. If I sit down, I could fall asleep.

7. "School or summer camp? Lmk."

I love college.

8. "I'm hungry."

I know we just ate, but all this walking and activity is making me hungry again. When's lunch?

9. "But I cannot be gaining the Freshman 15."

I need to eat a salad today. *snacks late at night and orders insomnia*

10. "Lowkey going to miss the people in my OC group."

I loved my OC and I wouldn't have wanted to spend these next four days with anyone else. Definitely glad I got to know so many more familiar faces.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.
