11 Thoughts Hokies Have During Freshman Week, But They're All 'New Girl' .GIFs

Freshman year is all about learning new things about yourself and that includes how you manage living in a dorm room and being on your own. There's nothing better than jumping off the edge that first week and going head first and seeing where you land.

But regardless of where you land, during your flight, I promise that these 11 thoughts will cross your mind!

"Whoa, where did all these guys come from?"

Giphy

For some reason, my hometown population of guys just got increasingly smaller. It's as if it turned into a puddle compared to this ocean of boys that college has to offer all of the sudden. SCORE!!

"Wait, which room is mine again?"

Giphy

Nothing is worse than walking into the wrong dorm room your first week. But hey, you can always play it off like you meant to do it and just introduce yourself. Own It

*Sees dorm room for the first time* "Wow, so much room for activities!"

Giphy

Haha. That's cute.

*Sees your hall mates after that "Welcome Freshman" party*

Giphy

That jungle juice made everyone seem like they're your new best friend so naturally, hugs for everyone!!!

"Wait, why did I pick such a BIG school?!"

Giphy

Yeah, let me HIKE across the Drillfield from Pritchard to NCB. OR just hike anywhere at Tech — it's that big.

*Goes to first class* *Comes Back to dorm room*

Giphy

Who said that college was fun? I just wanna talk

"Do people actually use signs to tell their mates that they can't come in?"

Giphy

It's always funny to see one roomie sitting in the hall waiting for a guest to leave their room. Or better yet, when you hear someone yell "Get out!" because the other one didn't get the memo.

"Dude, I thought I was going to miss home cooked meals."

Giphy

You might as well get used to lying to your momma because there's no way you can miss a home cooked meal when you go to Virginia Tech. Best. Food. Ever.

"How does one flirt in college?"

Giphy

Seriously? How does it work?

"Damn, I really should have hit that summer work out that I saved on Pinterest."

Giphy

I thought I was in shape but I guess all the IG models decided to come to Virginia Tech this year because I swear I'm the only potato.

"Wait, it's only been one week?"

Giphy

the first week goes by so fast but so slow at the same time. I would say it changes but... well, good luck Charlie.

Daily Fun Lists

One of the most dreaded places on campus is the library. Nothing awesome ever happens here. Usually, the only reason you're here is because you've procrastinated so long that the library is the only place you'll actually get stuff done. It gives you this feeling of sadness and impending doom. You have no idea how this is going to go or how long you'll be here, but you do know it is about to be the most excruciating experiences yet. But it has to get done, so you drag yourself to the lovely library.

With each new year comes new goals.

Deciding on a goal can be hard, unsure of what to change for this new year. A new goal for myself is to be happier and take care of myself more. I am a very driven person; so driven that I commit to a million and ten things.

It is that time of year again. Christmastime. It is one of my favorite seasons for a myriad of reasons. Here are just a few reasons why I love Christmas. This list is in no order of importance.

1. The Christmas decorations

I am that person who will decorate directly after Thanksgiving is over. This year, my roommates and I put the tree up in our apartment before we even left for Thanksgiving break. It is a great stress reliever for me to just sit in my living room and work on the huge amount of work I have before the semester is over.
