The first week back at college is unlike any other. There's tons of freshman getting lost and seniors panicking about graduation. You can't walk to class without someone yelling about joining a club you've never heard of. It's basically straight up chaos. Here's what most people are thinking:
1. Where am I going??
Even if it's your junior or senior year, you're bound to have a class in a room you've never seen before. Just because you know where the building is does not mean you know how to get to the room!
2. OMG I MISSED YOUUU
*Insert classic girls screaming about how much they missed each other* I'm totally guilty of this....
3. Where's *insert friend's name here*?
What do you mean they went abroad????? oops.
4. They better not start lecturing the first day
Unfortunately, my school doesn't understand the concept of sylly week...
5. I miss my mom's cooking
As much as I love getting to have all of my meals with my friends, nothing beats my mom's meatballs and sauce.
6. I need more Command Hooks!
You can never have too many, trust me.
7. Why are people so loud??
Ahhhh the joys of dorm-living. Just because you and your roommate want to get 8 hours of sleep doesn't mean someone isn't going to play music at 3 a.m..
8. Who's throwing?
No, nothing is physically being thrown around, but you know people are eager to get back out there.
9. I know I learned this last semester, but....
Summer has this magical ability to erase a few months of studying, gotta hate cumulative material.
10. I miss my dog already
This might be the most common phrase I hear. This is usually preceded by an Instagram story captioned "The hardest goodbye".
11. I'm really going to stay on top of my classes this semester!
We say it every time, and who knows? Maybe this semester will be different and I'll be on top of things at least through midterms.
We're all in this together, have a great semester!
