College is all about adjusting. It’s a new place, a new schedule and there are new people. But, one of the most important things is to really stay true to yourself. It’s easy to make a list of five or so rules that you have and put them on your phone, write them on a post it on your computer or put them on your desk. Some of my friends shared their mottos with me, and I hope that they help some of your have an amazing time:
