26 Things I Can't Wait To Do When I'm Back In Orono

As fall semester at The University of Maine, Orono is approaching there are quite a few things I've been itchin' to do since I left in the Spring. While we are, unfortunately, located in the middle of nowhere in Maine; where most people wonder why the hell someone would send up North. There are many things that are close to my heart up there. Without further ado, here are 26 things I can't wait to do as soon as I get to school.

1. Move into my apartment.

2. Order OHOP.

3. Bang a right and pull a U-Turn in the apartment complex across campus when the left turning lane is backed up to Orono PD.

4. People watch in the mall.

5. Go to football games; that's what fall semester is all about.

6. Continue to call "The Reserve" The Grove.

7. Tip Whip because we all know it's better than Uber in Orono.

8. Pregame the pregame.

9. Tailgate.

10. Union food... Enough said.

11. Spend $10 on a sandwich at Harvest Moon every other freakin' day.

12. Become better at the "Mainah" accent.

13. Wait an hour for the hockey games.

14. Alway chant "F*ck UNH", even though we all know UNH does not chant "F*ck UMAINE"...

15. Sing along with the band songs at games.

16. Study in Fogler...

17. Go to awkward but poppin' house parties. "Hello, hi, I don't know you... But I'm here."

18. Definitely can't wait to make more than a few trips to The Bear Brew.

19. Spend too much time in Thriftway.

20. Let's not forget hanging with Bananas.

21. Darty.

22. Be back with the best friends that I've made.

23. Oh, I forgot to mention 2-for-1 OHOP, you better believe I do that often.

24. Get coffee and muffins from The Nest.

25. Head over to Bangor and people watch at Walmart.

26. Constantly giving myself reasons as to why The University of Maine has my heart.

I'm sure there are a hundred other things people can't wait to do, but these are my top. And if we're looking forward, I'm very excited for Maine Day. Who isn't?

Oh, but I'm not looking forward to parking.

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

College is a great place to meet people, especially through Greek life. If you look closely at sororities, you'll quickly see there are many different types of girls you will meet.

1. The Legacy.

Her sister was a member, her mom was a member, all of her aunts were members, and her grandma was a member. She has been waiting her whole life to wear these letters and cried hysterically on bid day. Although she can act entitled at times, you can bet she is one of the most enthusiastic sisters.

The winter has been lagging, the days are short and dark, and no one is quite themselves due to lack of energy and sunlight. Let's face it: life is ten times better in the summertime.
