Anticipating Move-In Day, As Told By Leslie Knope

It's almost that time of year again, move-in day. Move in day is filled with so many emotions, from excitement to anger, to fatigue, to happiness. Who better to describe your experience than our favorite member of the Pawnee, Indiana Parks and Recreation Department, Leslie Knope?


1. Prepping yourself for the big move-in day.

You need to be prepared.

2. Remembering that you are going to get to see your friends soon.

You'll probably burst into tears of happiness when you see them.

3. But also thinking about all of the "heavy lifting" you are going to have to do.

Even though we all know your dad will bring up most of your stuff.

4. When you are discussing how to decorate with your roommates.

This room is going to be awesome, all thanks to you.

5. When your parents get angry because you left packing until the last minute.

Sorry, Mom and Dad.

6. Practicing your dance moves for when you go out that first weekend.

You need a good reintroduction after summer.

7. And thinking about your first brunch in the dining hall the morning after.

Because honestly, Saturday and Sunday brunches are what keeps me going. And it's when dining hall food is at its best.

8. Realizing moving in also means you are starting classes soon.

You're not ready.

9. Knowing it's going to be a great semester and you can't wait to get started.

Can move in day come faster?


Remember, be the Leslie Knope of everything you do!

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.
