Being a commuter student isn't easy but there are some things only you and commuter students

understand.

1. You hate getting ready for school!

If you're like me waking up at 6 am in the morning is no fun to get to school on time for your 8 am class.

2. You somehow end up on a rigid schedule for your classes and friends.

I don't know how I started on a such a schedule. I wake up at 6 am leave my house by 7 am to commute 45 minutes to school. After 12 pm, any free time I have gets dedicated to homework and studying. I also try to squeeze in as many times as I can to hang out with friends.

3. You hate having to stay on campus all day.

When I'm on campus all day, it takes such toll on me the next day. I try to limit the number of nights I stay on campus all day. But there are some days I can't control this. On the bright side, it leaves me with more time to study during those long days.

4. Water Fountains become your best friends, and you search for cold fountains on campus.

When I first came to college, I thought I didn't need a water bottle, but that quickly changed the first week of school. Since started school, I have gone through three water bottles. The bottle that I ended up sticking with is my TAL waterbottle. It is just the right size and keeps my water cold all day.

5. You find yourself wanting to sleep in, but you know have to get to school.

There are days I want to sleep in but I know I have to get up and get a move on to get to class. I guess you can say I'm working for the weekend.
