I finished up my second year of college in April, and as I reflect on how fast it's going I've also realized how much I've learned in just four semesters.
1. It's possible to wake up at 7:30 and still make it to your 8 a.m. Early.
2. Popcorn is definitely a meal.
3. Taco Bell for dinner two nights in a row is perfectly fine.
4. How to fit as much laundry as possible in the washer without causing a flood.
5. How to make $10 last a whole week.
6. It's alright to punch a guy in the face after he inappropriately touches you at a party.
7. Take advantage of the free Chick-fil-A chicken sandwich on Tuesdays.
8. Go to class before you buy the $250 textbook. You're probably not going to need it.
9. No one is going to judge you if you take a nap on that bench. Or that chair.
10. Pedialyte. That's all.
11. Testing how long you can go without a shower. (four days).
12. If you wear leggings all the time you don't notice when you gain weight.
13. Dating is weird. And really hard.
14. What it's like to fail a class.
15. Greek life is the best part of college.
16. Beer is literally the worst.
17. The 4 for $4 meal at Wendy's was made for college students.
18. You're going to cry. A lot.
19. The three jobs you're balancing are not worth the stress. Just be poor.
20. You're going to have a lot of fun.
These are just some of the things I've learned in my time in school and I cannot wait for what else I have to learn.
