Starting a New Adventure

My first week of college experiences

Starting a New Adventure

I moved in Sunday for Mizzou Recruitment and it has been a crazy busy week and it's only Monday. On top of that my first couple days at Mizzou have been AMAZING. When I moved in, it felt surreal and even still it doesn't feel like I am in college. I thought I'd be really homesick and I am really not that bad. I have been so busy with recruitment that I haven't really thought about it. I have been so ready to move out and be on my own, that this is exactly where I am supposed to be- I'm not really nervous but more excited to get things going. Recruitment is going really well, I am loving everything about it and everyone on campus is so nice and there is not one person that hasn't been nice or genuine. All the houses have been pretty accessible which is AMAZING. That was one thing, I was really worried about coming in and rushing was the accessibility. It isn't as bad as I assumed it would be. My dorm is pretty awesome and big! I am living in Defoe Graham with my friend from high school. It is nice as well to have someone I know so I have an automatic friend that can go around campus with, eat with and make adjusting a little easier. It is really a good start to my year here at Mizzou. I am looking forward to what all Mizzou has to offer, I have only seen a glimpse of it and I can't wait to explore more and more of it.

And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

College is a great place to meet people, especially through Greek life. If you look closely at sororities, you'll quickly see there are many different types of girls you will meet.

1. The Legacy.

Her sister was a member, her mom was a member, all of her aunts were members, and her grandma was a member. She has been waiting her whole life to wear these letters and cried hysterically on bid day. Although she can act entitled at times, you can bet she is one of the most enthusiastic sisters.

Every kid in college and/or high school dreams of summer the moment they walk through the door on the first day back in September. It becomes harder and harder to focus in classes and while doing assignments as the days get closer. The winter has been lagging, the days are short and dark, and no one is quite themselves due to lack of energy and sunlight. Let's face it: life is ten times better in the summertime.
