1.There is a lot to do on campus.

In just a few weeks so much has occurred on my campus. The music department has had several great concerts and recitals that were spectacular. Volleyball, football and soccer games occur constantly On top of all that, hanging out with friends is always a great option. Local restaurants, cinemas, or parks are close by and available if I decide to not stay in the dorm room. However, I have a busy schedule so I tend to stay in my dorm. Also, a lack of funds keeps me from doing stuff and pure exhaustion.

2.Football hype is better at college.

I have to explain this a bit. I have only known about football for about 4 years. Which is the entirety of my high school career. My family never went to football games except for three honor bands that I attended and one USA vs. Miss. State game. So the hype is real during the game. I simply enjoy the spirit that is in the stands. It’s all exhilarating

3. 8 a.m. classes suck.

I am a music major. Freshman theory was only available at 8 a.m. (I am not bad-mouthing the university that I attend I am just making a general statement). For all you out there who has to be in class early the morning and fight the urge to sleep even while you drink coffee, I know the struggle. Sometimes you have to get up after falling asleep at 2 a.m., get dressed, eat breakfast, and get to class. It’s college and you are here to get a higher education. Drink that coffee.

4.Literally anything is better than homework.

Procrastination. For some people, this issue is dangerous (myself included). I have sat in my dorm with my TV with cable and Xbox in front of me, knowing full well that I have like five things do the next day, and I just push it off to a later time of my night. (Usually why I go to sleep later and becomes an issue to my 8am class). Then hastily finish the homework hours before it due the next day because you went “one more episode” and fell asleep. The simple truth is that you will get distracted, just try to get caught up so you are not in that position. If you procrastinate, do not do it for papers because it will not be a good grade.

5.College is fun

I think this is a no-brainer, but it cannot be state enough. College is great, of course you will come across some issue, but this a new kind of world. Scholarly and adventurous events occur daily. Go out and do something and you will meet new people and learn something new everytime.
