Move-In Day Thoughts In Motion
Good Stuff Moving

August brings a unique moment in time for college bound students across the nation and the world. The summer spent between high school and college is unlike any other because of the great amount of independence and change that student is about to receive. For me, move in day was a complete breeze thanks to Baylor's impeccable Welcome Week team at North Russell shout out to them! Throughout the move in day a range of emotions take place from the moment you wake up in your hotel room to the moment when you successfully climbed on top of your new bed.

GIFs express emotions and thoughts like no other to me so what better way to highlight the world wind of events known as college move in day.


Anxious: This starts the night before when your mind starts racing thinking about how your life will change


Excited: Your dorm room is perfect opportunity to make all of your Pinterest boards become true and what's better than


Panic: Once you arrive on campus the amount of traffic is horrendous and the idea of not getting to check in on time makes your hands tremble


Shocked: The panic subsides, you get your ID card and walking into your new home feels incredible


Frustrated: All the paperwork and manual labor needed for you to move in is tiring yet mandatory, my advice do it as quickly as possible


Happy: To meet your roommates new friends are great to make so get started now


Accomplished: After going to the bathroom and walking back in to see your room a wave of accomplishment comes over like a waterfall


Starved: Since the last time you ate was hotel breakfast and it's now 4:30 time to find anything you can get your hands on in your mouth


Proud: AND ready to start a brand new chapter of your life that you must share with social media


Slightly tearful: When you hug your parents, family and friends goodbye


Nevertheless have fun on move in day and enjoy the precious days before the FDOC!

I think the hardest thing about going away to college is figuring out how to become an adult. Leaving a household where your parents took care of literally everything (thanks, Mom!) and suddenly becoming your own boss is overwhelming. I feel like I'm doing a pretty good job of being a grown-up, but once in awhile I do something that really makes me feel like I'm #adulting. Twenty-somethings know what I'm talking about.

I went to a small high school, like 120-people-in-my-graduating-class small. It definitely had some good and some bad, and if you also went to a small high school, I’m sure you’ll relate to the things that I went through.

1. If something happens, everyone knows about it

Who hooked up with whom at the party? Yeah, heard about that an hour after it happened. You failed a test? Sorry, saw on Twitter last period. Facebook fight or, God forbid, real fight? It was on half the class’ Snapchat story half an hour ago. No matter what you do, someone will know about it.

Chandler Bing

I'm assuming that we've all heard of the hit 90's TV series, Friends, right? Who hasn't? Admittedly, I had pretty low expectations when I first started binge watching the show on Netflix, but I quickly became addicted.

Without a doubt, Chandler Bing is the most relatable character, and there isn't an episode where I don't find myself thinking, Yup, Iam definitely the Chandler of my friend group.

Working with the public can be a job, in and of itself. Some people are just plain rude for no reason. But regardless of how your day is going, always having to be in the best of moods, or at least act like it... right?

1. When a customer wants to return a product, hands you the receipt, where is printed "ALL SALES ARE FINAL" in all caps.

2. Just because you might be having a bad day, and you're in a crappy mood, doesn't make it okay for you to yell at me or be rude to me. I'm a person with feelings, just like you.

3. People refusing to be put on hold when a customer is standing right in front of you. Oh, how I wish I could just hang up on you!
