What I've Learned First Year.

Just some of the things I have learned my first year at STU, some are directed at certain people, and some are general. I'm sure there are more, I just can't think of them all...

-You are judged by how long your showers are :)

-Always keep your room clean, a tour might go through.

-There is always someone awake, at any point of the night, writing a paper

-No matter how hard you try not to, you will procrastinate.

-The people in your house will become your best friends.

-There's always someone to talk to.

-Just because your smoke alarm goes off, doesn't mean people will wake up, they may think it's an alarm clock.

-If you have home baked desserts, you are the favourite in your hall.

-If you don't like something your mom sent you, someone will.

-There are often random dance parties.

-'Rate Your Prof Canada' is a key part to course selection.

-You live for the course/prof evaluation sheets at the end of the semester.

-It's stupid that it's Taco Wednesday and not Taco Tuesday anymore.

-Someone will understand that obsession you have that people at home thought was weird.

-The first day at home is the best, but then you want to get right back to school.

-WebAdvisor is the most useless thing ever.

-If you don't understand your homework, someone else probably does.

-When an awesome thing happens to you [first A+, getting excepted into Education/other -university, graduating] your entire hallway rejoices with you.

-You can complain about a prof and someone else will agree and complain with you.

-You can hear word for word what your neighbors are saying on the phone.
