Never have I ever until college ... started drinking at 7:00am.

It's definitely a unique and challenging process waking up for a Saturday football game. Not only do I have to manage to get my body out of bed at 6:45am, dress completely in a monotone of red, put on makeup hoping you couldn't see the “hungover” in my eyes, I had to somehow put enough alcohol in my body before game time so that my drunk could last me the next five hours. It's an exhausting process but one that I look forward to more than anything.

Never have I ever until college ... done my own laundry.

Yes, my privileged Californian life gave me the joy of not having to wash my own clothes but once I became a college kid I had to learn how to pour the perfect amount of detergent, how high of heat to dry my clothes, and manage the art of folding clothes.

Never have I ever until college ... been up until 3:30am doing homework.

I made a terrible enemy once I came to college named Procrastination. In high school, I could procrastinate on writing an essay, turn it in the night before, and get a solid B. But now that I'm in college procrastination bites me in the a** leaving me stressed out, reliant on coffee, and up way too late for having school the next day.

Never have I ever until college ... had Mono.

They say 60% of all college students experience the horror of Mono and sadly I am a statistic. My first semester of Freshman year consisted of me going to class, rushing a sorority, and sleeping between each of my classes in an attempt to fight off this miserable virus. (If you do experience Mono, RIP to you. It sucks.)

Never have I ever until college ... gone to class drunk.

It's not because I pregamed class (but I do plan to do this at some point before I graduate) but there have been a few Friday morning classes where I woke up still drunk from my Coke and rums the night before forcing me to get out of bed with makeup running down my face and my head spinning while my professor is trying to teach me about the printing press.

Never have I ever until college ... lived with my best friends.

The dorms, as gross, cramped, and loud as they can be, are truly amazing. You are in a building with hundreds of other college kids your age who want to have a great time and make the most of freshman year. You'll meet some of the weirdest people here and your best friends. Being able to call a floor-mate a close friend of yours is something only college can give you and it rocks.
