When They Had 5 Seconds To Breathe, I Asked 15 College Students How Their First Week Of School Was Going

Ahh, college. It's grown up boarding school. For some, it's their first time away from home and family. Moving into dorms is a whole day's event and classes just seem to start out of the blue.

In the midst of the hustle and bustle during the first week of college classes, I asked 15 different people about their first week and how it was going.

These are their answers.


1. "Pretty good. My classes just suck and I hate my chemistry teacher."

2. "Good. I just don't like getting up for my 7 am class. It's so far away from my dorm. I don't even have time to eat."

3. "It's going great. I don't have any complaints. I am so excited for this year, though."

4. "It's really fun actually. I like it so far. I saw an old lady with a rolling backpack. One of my professors didn't take roll or introduce himself."

5. "It's going good. My classes are all easy. I've been to the pool twice, so that's nice. I'm chillin'."

6. "It's good. All of my professors are fine, for now. My classes are all interesting."

9. “My professor reminds me of my dad, which is super funny. I am actually  excited to go to my classes. It’s not like high school, where I had to go to classes I didn’t like.”

13. “I skipped both of my classes today. My professors are nice. But I still feel like I’m going to miss classes again this year.”

14. “I like my classes. They’re really cool  for the most part. I’m just hungry all the time.”
