Welcome back, Noles! Whether you're new to Tally or a seasoned veteran on campus, there are some thoughts that are common to all of us as we try to force ourselves back into the Fall semester mindset.
1. Why is everybody wearing FSU T-shirts? You're in this class; we know where you go to school.
For real, what is up with this, guys? Is it school spirit? Who's even exciting for the first day of class????
2. And why are so many people wearing college T-Shirts that aren't from here?
You don't go there! You go here! GO NOLES!
3. When is this (inevitable) hurricane going to hit us?
Every. Damn. Year.
4. WHERE AM I SUPPOSED TO PARK?
Because if you don't get there at 8, you may as well turn around.
5. Where's the best bathroom on campus?
How do humans manage to make such big messes? (Pro tip: 2nd floor Dodd Hall)
6. Why can't we just win a season opening football game for once?
We did not just spend 3 days tailgating for this, come on, Noles, get it together.
7. I have 15 minutes to get from The Stadium to Williams, and it's 97 degrees and HUMID
I'm pretty sure this counts as cruel and unusual punishment.
8. When will they tear down Salley Hall?
We love her, but that building is a HAZARD.
9. This line is so long, and I just want my iced coffee
Starbucks Stroz is a power move, but you'd better clear your schedule.
10. Will my T.A. be hot?
And how many times can I go to office hours without seeming creepy?
11. Hand-foot-mouth disease. Detonated World War Two bombs. What's next?!
There always seems to be some weird and obscure fall semester emergency (and it usually coincides with the hurricane making landfall.)
12. I love my school.
Despite all of this ridiculousness, Florida State University is a great place to spend our college years.
