    "if you're doing something that you think people might judge you for literally that's just more reason to go all in because if you're so passionate about something and if people judge you, they just look like assholes" preach sis preach! this is going to be on my dorm wall for motivation! i'm so nervous yet super excited to start college! thanks for the advice!

      yes I agree, but she said that right after the reputation thing, just judging what other people do...

  • @elgraninicio
    @elgraninicio 6 лет назад +130

    Regarding boys... I think everyone should do whatever they want and not thinking about what reputation it may lead to!

    • @kennalime5644
      @kennalime5644 6 лет назад +26

      I agree... This is XXI century... Let´s just stop about the reputation thing and let´s live our sexual life as we want!

      @swimmswimmm668 4 года назад +6

      If you develop a reputation people may treat you differently. College is a lot about networking and even if it’s not right, a reputation isn’t good for job connections.

      @megld13 6 лет назад +8

      If her bf is the guy she posted a pic with a while ago.. I doubt she will. She didn't tag him bc she explained that he doesn't want that kind of attention, yet some people went and found him and followed him which was some kind of invasion of privacy so she obviously got very mad cause some people couldn't​ respect him or her

  • @marisallogan

    your experience was so similar to mine for choosing my school! I’m from the Midwest and wanted to get out, but when I found out I got into indiana university’s business school and visited the campus I fell in love❤️ for everyone looking at schools, keep an open mind! a good fit for you may be what you never expected!

    @katrina9464 6 лет назад +2

    What is it like dorming? How do you feel sharing bathrooms, kitchens, etc.? I would like to go away but I am picky and don’t know how I would feel living in that type of environment.

    • @KathrynMueller
      @KathrynMueller 6 лет назад

      hey girl! In dorms, kitchens aren't really a thing, with meal plans you dont really ever cook! for bathrooms, its honestly not that bad because there are people who come and clean them almost daily. the privacy thing is a little rough sometimes because its so public using a shared bathroom, but I think living in the dorms is the best way to make friends freshman year and you should def give it a shot! also, i make a ton of college videos on my channel if you'd want to check those out!

    Syracuse is one of my top schools right now (I’ll be a senior next year tho) and one of the main things holding me back is that I don’t think the Greek life is for me, and I’ve heard that it like rules the campus. I respect Greek life and it looks like a lot of fun, but I just don’t think I would be interested in joining. I feel like if I don’t join I won’t have a social life and stuff tho :/ do you have any insight as a member of the Greek community there?

      Jessie Maisie usually your second year you move into sorority houses if they have them. if not, you can stay in a dorm or get an apartment. usually dorms are only for first years because theyre required and optional for other years

    I’m majoring in communication too... but here we just say “communication” not “communications.” Idk what’s right but when it’s plural it just sounds wrong lol

    I was wondering if you always knew that you wanted to be in a sorrority or if you decided after you got there?
