Okay, here is part two of what I learned in college... well it's what I can remember now anyways =]
1.) Don't PANIC. Classes change, degrees fall through, your best friend will stab you in the back, money can be an issue. . . yes, these things happen. ALWAYS think, in 5 years will I still be worried about this?
2.) If the answer to the above question is NO, then do what you can or just eat some ice cream.
3.) If the answer to the above question is YES, make a plan, even if it's a far out plan. Take baby steps. One day at a time. Justttttt ONE.
4.) Ask for help. You don't know everything, asking for help gets difficult things done a lot faster.
5.) Guys will usually be thinking about sex.
6.) Girls will usually be thinking of why they're self conscious.
7.) Don't worry about finding friends, just go to work and do what you do. Friends pop up everywhere if you smile at people and ask questions.
8.) Mistakes are usually the funniest stories. Don't forget them or stay humiliated.
9.) Getting up early sounds awesome the day before.
10.) Most important relationship in life- you and sleep. Not sleeping makes you age and get sick.
11.) Don't be the person in the study/work group who doesn't shut up. Distractions are fun, but often get cut out of groups.
12.) Be present. When you're with people don't keep your attention on your phone. It makes people feel awkward and shows immaturity. If you needa text someone back, you say hey sorry I need to answer so and so real quick about my elephant in the lake.
13.) Sparknotes will save you.
14.) Wikipedia will screw you over.
15.) Encourage people and don't be condescending, the more you bring others up, the more others will want to be around you.
16.) Eat breakfast. For real, just do.
17.) Be thankful. Sometimes life is overwhelming YES, but we're all here working towards something and by the GRACE of God we are healthy enough to do that and able to work towards a dream. Most countries don't give the people dreams or means to work.
Okay, this is all I have for now! There might be a part three, there might be somethin different. Either way, stay well and keep smiling =]
