The first week of classes is a week that few of us actually look forward to. The carefree attitude of summer is replaced with the seriousness of back to school. Yes, there is catching up with old friends and hearing all the crazy summer stories, but that takes a back burner to the dread that comes with starting a new fall semester.
There's meeting new professors, moving in with new people, and giving up the whole attitude of summer. No matter if it is your very first time in college or you're a senior back for one of your last semesters, the first week of class is always one that is mixed with many different emotions. So why not have the good old boys from "Trailer Park Boys" help to describe theses emotions. They've been through everything from failing out to even going to jail, so I'd say that they can pretty much relate to any emotion.
Meeting your new roommate
Walking into class and seeing your friend
Reading the syllabus and seeing that attendance is a grade
"You have a quiz due by every lecture"
When the professor finishes the syllabus and then goes straight into teaching
"If you get an A then i'm not doing my job right"
Having to ride the bus around campus
Eating that first meal back in the dinning hall and realizing you did not miss the food at all
Realizing your parents left and you're on your own again
Seeing your best friends again after months of not seeing them
Hearing all the crazy summer stories and realizing you did nothing exciting
Meeting the new friends that your best friends made while you were away
Dealing with the chaos that is parking on campus
Being stuck sitting in the lecture hall with no personal space
Waiting on finical aid so you're forced to eat whatever random food your parents bought you
Being the one who took summer classes so you never got that break
Spending an insane amount of money on books
But no matter how much you complain you're still excited to be back
