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

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.
