Classroom Woes and College Hos

I hate the whole awkward "OMGZ I'm ______" thing, so I'm Courtney (: I am 99.987654321% sure that Syracuse is going to be the best thing that has ever happened to me, but that .whatever percent is killing me. And you are hilarious. Just saying. Can you give a girl some advice?

Awwww cuttteeee I love answering messages! It makes me feel so important haha.

Hi Courtney! That’s awesome you’re so excited about coming to school! Honestly, when I first got to Syracuse, I regretted coming here. I was homesick and the first winter was rough, but I stuck through. I was probably just being a baby… And now I love it. It’s about a 5 hour trip from where I live to Cuse and even that isn’t so bad anymore. The campus is gorgeous (while the weather’s warm). But even with all the snow, it’s still pretty! It’s a big enough campus that you can meet a new person ever day but still run into a couple people while you’re walking to class. Exactly what I wanted out of a college.

The weather is no joke. You need to bring some supplies for it. And I don’t mean Uggs and an umbrella, ‘cause that won’t even last 5 feet outside your dorm. Rain boots are a must. I always feel super bad for the guys who trudge around in sneakers… Wet socks are gross. But yea, get a raincoat too. And a winter jacket. Embrace the snow! Join the ski team. Start a cute hat collection. It’ll be a good time.

Greek life isn’t really for me, but so many girls love it. I can’t help but hate on it but if that’s your style, by all means, go for it! You’ll just have to get used to girls like me who hate on it.

School pride is like unbelievable here. I’m pretty sure some people actually bleed orange. You’ll love going to games with your friends. It’s such a fun experience being able to cheer for your team in the student section. Especially in the loud house. Legit, I didn’t even go to most of the games this year and I still heard every single thing from my dorm. So it was pretty much like being there… whether I wanted to or not… but seriously.

We have basic college shenanigans that go on. There’s always something to do. You can party or stay in. You can be a super nerd and go hang out at the science museum for a night. That’s what me and my friends did. No regrets. But yea, there’s a lot to do! And if not then you’ll have a ton of people to be bored with.

Dorm life is fun. It’s like living with a million of your closest friends. Don’t stress the roommate thing. You might love em or you might hate em. Depends on the circumstances. 

I hope some of the stuff in here helps! If you have any more questions hit me upppp. And thanks for thinking i’m hilarious, I always tell people that about myself and they never believe me. Good luck with all the pre-college jitters.

Bleed Orange, Kelsey Marie
