When you start realizing things

You finished high school. It’s done. You don’t miss her at all (at least I don’t). And you are never, ever getting back together. All those times you bit your nails over getting a good score on your SAT are done. No more waking up at dawn to get to school on time. Remember prom? What about stressing over your exams? Remember when you thought high school was going to be the most important part of your life? You no longer have that desire to be popular or well-liked, as you’ve realized it never mattered in the first place. You are starting a new chapter in life. Be excited. Be nervous. Be ready to do things you’ve never done before. Anticipate making mistakes, because you will. That’s just a part of life.🙂

One of the first steps to college life is actually arriving there, so don’t come empty handed and get ready to make your room as cozy as possible.

I’ve attached the dorm items list. I hope this becomes useful for you all as move-in day approaches. There were a few dorm items lists that went around when I was a first year but I always found myself having to make 2-3 trips to Target to get everything I needed. I believe this is the most cohesive list because it contains items that are essential for comfort as well.

Before you go, I’m curious: What was high school like for you? Did you like it? Hate it? Spill the tea.
