35 Thoughts Everyone Has On The First Day Of Classes
FosterEDU

First day of classes are always a good time. From running around the campus trying to figure out where your classes are to almost hyperventilating when you read the syllabus and wonder where you will find time to do all the work. At the end of the day though, you're basically back to the old routine and feel right at home on campus again. Here's all the thoughts that run through people's heads during the first day of class.

  1. Oh my god why did I do this to myself, 9 AMs are basically as bad as 8 AMs
  2. Must get out of bed, must look nice for first day of classes…
  3. Why is it so early?!
  4. Oops forgot to buy new notebooks
  5. Guess I’m using the second half of my old notebooks
  6. 30 minutes until class, get yourself together
  7. I have time for breakfast right?
  8. First meal in the dining hall and it’s already terrible
  9. Oh no, I only have 15 minutes until class starts!
  10. Where is this class anyways?
  11. If I leave the dining hall right now, I can make it with ten minutes to spare
  12. I’ve never had class in this room!
  13. It’s so crowded…
  14. There’s a free seat!
  15. No no no no no! Don’t sit there, I want to sit there!
  16. Ugh time to find another empty seat
  17. Found one! Just gotta climb over all these people now
  18. What happened to syllabus week? Did not plan on taking this many notes today
  19. Oh yay I have a writing assignment due the next time we meet!
  20. What am I supposed to do during the two-hour break I have?
  21. Should I just go to my room?
  22. The next class is literally on the other side of campus though…
  23. I guess I’ll just go to the dining hall again and watch Netflix
  24. Thank god I only have two classes today; I need to ease back into school
  25. Day one and I’m already exhausted
  26. I can’t believe I have to do this all over again tomorrow
  27. At least it’s a two day week, though
  28. Is it just me or did dining hall food get worse?
  29. OMG! There’s my friend! Haven’t seen her in forever!
  30. I wonder who else I’ll see today
  31. Group chat is lit when you’re on campus
  32. Can’t wait to be reunited with everyone at dinner
  33. One day back and it feels like I never left it in the first place
  34. It’s been an exhausting day…
  35. Can’t wait to crawl into bed and finally sleep

1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

A true friend will tell you if the shirt is ugly, or at least ask to borrow it and "accidentally" burn it.

2. Thank you for accepting me for who I am.

A best friend will love you regardless of the stale french fries you left on the floor of your car, or when you had lice in 8th grade and no one wanted to talk to you.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!
