14 Signs You're a Fisher Freshman

Welcome Class of 2020!

14 Signs You're a Fisher Freshman
St. John Fisher College Facebook Page

1. You Wear Your Lanyard Around Your Neck

At least until we were told only freshman do it…I swear the bookstore has made at least $5,000 in lanyard sales.

2. You Have to Plan Out Meals

Because you will not, under any circumstances sit alone. Ever. Every meal requires a group message to coordinate when everyone is going and at what time. It actually makes me miss having a scheduled lunch period at school.

3. You Have to Spend 5 Minutes Calculating When You Go to Fishbowl, Cardinal or Cyber Whether to Use A Meal Swipe or Dining Dollars

How much is dinner worth? What do you mean I can’t swipe more than one meal swipe in a meal period? If I get a wrap and a drink should I use a meal swipe? Who knew getting food in college would require so much work.

4. That Awkward Moment When You Ask a Passerby Where Something Is and They Say That They're A Freshman Too

Nothing, and I mean nothing is more embarrassing. Sorry I don’t know my whole class… And this campus is pretty small so how do people at huge schools find their way around??

5. You Post a Picture of Your Room on Social Media

I swear move-in day my whole Instagram and Twitter feed was room pictures. It's nice to know I’m not the only one breaking the fire code.

6. You're Terrified of the Fisher 50

EVERYONE has warned you about it. Everyone. And maybe they aren’t wrong with milkshakes from Fishbowl, daily ice cream in Ward-Haffey and Breakfast for Dinner in Murphy. Cue the daily gym trips and salad bar voyages!

7. You're Either Kicked Out or Not Let Into Parties

“Freshman go home!”, or “Sorry no freshman allowed” are common phrases when you’re just trying to go out. Do the upperclassmen not remember that they were Freshman once too?

8. Every Conversation Starts With "So What's Your Major?"

You don’t know what else to say so you just ask name, hometown, and major. For every person. Even though you’ll forget it before the next time you see them. And with these conversations you’ll realize…

9. You've Already Met at Least 20 Nursing Majors

I swear 60 percent of the freshman class is Nursing majors. Then 20 percent is Pharmacy, 10 percent is Bio Pre-Med, and 10 percent is everything else. If your roommate isn’t a Nursing major, I can almost guarantee your suitemate or your neighbor is.

10. All Upperclassmen Somehow Know You're a Freshman Even if You Haven't Told Them

“Oh you’re a freshman right?”. …Uh what?? I’m not even wearing a lanyard… The amount of time the freshman class has been told we look like babies is unreal.

11. The GroupMe Blows Up Your Phone

Thus why a third of the group have left it. People only talk in it to promote things or talk about parties.

Don't tell but I have it muted.

12. Half the People You Meet You Were Already Friends With Them on Facebook or Followed on Instagram Before You Came Here

Thanks Fisher Class of 2020 Facebook Group for all these followers! Then there’s the awkward moment when you don’t know whether to tell someone you follow them on Instagram…

13. Your Favorite Part of the Week is the Off Campus Shuttles

We can’t have cars so how else are we going to get there?! The shuttle vans are packed full of people trying to get their weekly Pittsford Plaza or Wegmans fix.

14. Either Your Cover Photo On Facebook or Your Header on Twitter is the Class of 2020 Class Photo

If our class photo isn’t your cover photo or your header, do you even go here?

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!
