11 Things For Everyone Going Back To School

It is starting to rain. Summer clothes are disappearing from stores. The Christmas ornaments are being displayed at the stores. And the worst of them all. SCHOOL IS COMING. I personally like school supply shopping more than actually going to school. And in my case is a bit different, I just moved to the United States and this high school experience has being scary. But I would like to share this small tips with you, hopefully I will follow them too.



1. Do Not Stress Out


It is not worth losing sleep for it. It is okay to be nervous and scared, that happens. But teachers and staff are there to help us. So ask questions, wander around the school to find your classes and locker if you are not familiar with the place.


2. Read. Read. Read.

And write too. If you are like me, I don't keep track of the days on summer or winter vacations. I stop working as a human being. Check your topics for the classes you are taking and do some light reading. Train yourself for school.


3. File Your Paper

Seriously, if you have anything that you or your parents need to file for school. Do it ASAP. Get everything set. Your schedules, class info, mail accounts, or anything you need for the future.


4. Stationery Is Awesome


Me: *clears throat* Hi, my name is Stella.

Everyone: Hi, Stella.

Me: *with no shame* And I am a stationery addict.

Go school supply shopping a week or two before school starts.


5. Get Involved

Yeii, people. I know, some people are not really good at making new friends, or maybe they are not interested. But knowing people from your classes and clubs is definitely something good.


6. Eat Breakfast and Lunch


This is how I am by third period. Please, eat.


7. Take It Easy With Those Tough Classes.

I honestly don't understand all the math, so I try to breath and ask for help. And don't be scared of asking questions to your teacher, it is their jobs to help you and teach you.


8. Ask Questions... Obviously...

Asking questions could save a life.


9. Sleep Well.

Really, your body will thank you.


10. Make Friends and Enjoy Yourself


11. This Is Not Like High School Musical

Unfortunately, there is a lot of childish and nonsense drama. Ignore it and you will be okay.

Bob's Burgers
Adult Swim

Bob's Burgers is arguably one of the best and most well-written shows on tv today. That, and it's just plain hilarious. From Louise's crazy antics to Tina's deadpan self-confidence, whether they are planning ways to take over school or craft better burgers, the Belchers know how to have fun. They may not be anywhere close to organized or put together, but they do offer up some wise words once and awhile.

We're in college, none of us actually have anything together. In fact, not having anything together is one of our biggest stressors. However, there's a few little things that we do ever so often that actually make us feel like we have our lives together.

1. Making yourself dinner

And no this does not include ramen or Annie's Mac & Cheese. Making a decent meal for yourself is one of the most adult things you can do living on campus. And the food is much better than it would be at the dining hall.

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.
