We’ve all been there… new place, new people, it can be intimidating. At first you don’t know how you’ll do it, but eventually things fall into place. Here’s 10 things you’ll definitely know if you’ve ever been a first semester freshman at OSU.
Hearing that housing came out and waiting for your e-mail to load was probably one of the most stressful moments ever. You hoped you’d be lucky enough to live in Smith Steeb or Park Strad, and if you didn’t get what you wanted you were in a bad mood for the entire next week.
Can you use dining dollars at chipotle? What’s Buck ID money? Wait, can I use a swipe at the union? It took you a few days but eventually you figured it out.
Ya, it’s a real thing… especially when a 3 chicken combo for $7.99 is just down the block. Don’t get me wrong though, it’s worth every calorie.
It’s Thursday night… you know where you are, you know what you’re holding in your hand. $1 bombs were a blessing and a curse.
Survey supposed to help you out and act as your weekly de-stressor, but really it just stressed you out even more.
You got out of the shower and went back to your room just to realize that you left your buck ID on the other side of the door. You’d then have to hope your roommate was nearby or else you were going downstairs in a towel and shower shoes to get a new key card.
Whether it was a Saturday morning and you needed some greasy hangover-type food, or it was during the week before classes and you were craving a bacon, egg & cheese, sloopy’s was where you would wind up (and for like an hour because it’s super slow).
It was usually something you ordered on amazon prime two days before, but there were always those occasional surprises from mom or grandma.
You probably had 3 or 4 left at the end of the week and didn’t want them to go to waste so you bought another box of ramen noodles or, more than likely, a tub of ice cream to satisfy your late night cravings. This is a known OSU landmark.
You knew (and still know) that you really couldn’t have picked a better place to spend your next 4 years and you cannot wait to see the many other things it has to offer.
