Yet more people going off to college now and are all worried and shit. Gives me nostalgia. Well, kiddos:
you don't have to ask to go to the bathroom in college
no one cares if you go to the dining hall alone. seriously. no one is looking at you.
download the SelfControl or Cold Turkey, Flux, FocusBar, Zotero, and Caffeine apps. you'll thank me later.
if you have mental health issues you may benefit from the SAM (Self-Help for Anxiety Management) or Optimism apps (helps you track your moods and stuff) too, idk
go to counselling if you need too. no one is judging you. plenty of the people you meet could very well likely be doing the same thing.
sit in the front and do your frickin' homework I'm not kidding
go to the library to do homework, don't do it on your bed or in your room if you can help it, I promise you'll get way more done, it's like a psychological thing. plus doing homework on your bed can lead to insomnia (you associate your bed with work and study instead of rest, I'm not making this shit up, my doctor told me this)
figure out sleep times and a cleaning schedule with your roommate early cuz that can wreck your relationship fast
you're better off not dating freshman year. an old adage that is still true.
that's all kiddos have fun
