How A Transfer College Student Feels Like
Carrie Spillane

College is college so you know all what to expect. You at least been to college for a semester. You know the people who makes you comfortable and who can make your skin crawl. You know you your alcohol level intake before you get tipsy to drunk to too late to fix mistakes to blackout. You even smoke a blunt at least once and your first time you got high or not. You know what the work load is like. Show up to classes and do all your assignments cause "It Pay’s to Get A’s, But C’s Get Degrees". Whatever you have to do cause you might have to take an extra semester, a winter or summer class, or a few online classes to get caught up.

As someone who barley knows anyone at a new college you can not help to feel like a freshman. You ask where places are located and they say "next to the auditorium" and you ask "where is that?" You are afraid of getting a Freshman 15 because of all the new food places you want to try. Professors and staff ask if you are a freshman because of you barely swiped ID. Last but not lease you are in a whole new environment far from all your friends and family.

But it is the only first week so do not fret. Clubs, intramurals, and fraternity and sorority rushes will start and you will meet a bunch of new people. It does not hurt to go up to someone and complement their clothing. Talk to the people in your class and make a study buddy for when midterms and finals come.

P.S. Remeber do not have you college life rely coffee

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.

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.
