Thoughts Of An Incoming College Freshman As Told By Spongebob Squarepants

Being an incoming college freshman is a lot like starting at the bottom of the food-chain. We have very little direction and we basically run around like chickens with our heads cut off. Being a cartoon lover, I realized Spongebob had some pretty relateable scenarios. Hopefully, we'll swim to the top.

The feelings of being "fresh meat" again:

Trying to battle the freshman 15 before you're actually a freshman like:

And let's be real. Your attempts aren't working.

What will actually happen:

What you feel like after purchasing the biggest meal plan:

Coping with adulthood is going to take a whole lot of Krabby Patties.

Actually eating the cafeteria food when you go to orientation:

Who signed me up for this. Where are the home-cooked meals?

Seriously. Everyone at my orientation was so attractive. Please be my friend?

Trying to shop for outfits for Formal Recruitment:

Confused. Lost in Dillard's. Online shopping. The equivilent to like blurred Mr. Krabbs.


When you finally find the perfect outfit:

Or at least you think it is the perfect outfit. Maybe it's not? Am I overthinking this? Is this even cute? I need a coffee.

What you think your college looks like after the first tuition fee:

Student loans. In the name of Mr. Krabs: MONEY, MONEY, MONEY!

Trying to make your own headboard:

Feeling more confused than Sandy Cheeks not loving Texas. Which is very confused

When you remember that all of your high school friends are going to different colleges:

Where is the tissue box?


When your adviser tells you your only option for a required class is an 8 a.m.:

How did the "Pineapple Under the Sea" ever survive without a coffee-maker?

Spending all of your graduation money on college gear:

My bank account is already suffering and I'm not even there yet.

When you realize you're leaving your pets soon:

Actually the worst part. I cry just thinking about it.

THE EXCITEMENT IS REAL!

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.

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.
