Whether you have been in college for 4 days or 4 years, mistakes have been made. These mistakes can be pretty funny or pretty sucky. I have had plenty of moments where I have said to myself, "Well....that just happened." But without these moments, I would not be able to look back on my college career and either learn from my mistakes or continue to make the same mistakes.

1. Don't study the day before your exam

Multiple days in advance is key to get a good grade

2. Don't miss out on opportunities because you're unsure

Just. Do. It.

3. Don't let someone take your unassigned assigned seat

Or at least try not to because it really throws the vibe off

4. Don't skip the gym

Endorphins are everything

5. Don't be afraid to eat that piece of cake at the dining halls

No one cares and probably is thinking the same thing

6. Don't be afraid to hurt feelings

Not worth it

7. Don't try to find parking 10 minutes before your class

You just won't make it to class or be hella late

8. Don't buy your textbooks before classes start

Most of the time I never cracked open the book, make sure you will NEED the book before you buy or rent it

9. Don't lose your college ID

I have never done this, but after seeing "Found *insert name* on the bus please let him/her know." It just doesn't sound like a good idea and a replacement is expensive for a piece of plastic.

10. Don't regret anything

It's college, enjoy it all, even your mistakes.
