Story time with Laura! I shared this info last year and dangit Im doing it again. Here is one of the biggest tips anyone can give you about college: stay healthy. Its super easy to get a nasty virus or infection at college because of how many people are here. Take the germ infestation that you experienced in high school and quadruple that and youve got college. So if youre not normally a hand washer, you need to learn to do that regularly. Get every single shot on the immunization list AND the flu shot when flu season comes around. Also its really helpful to carry a pocket sized thing of Germ-X and maybe some pocket tissues especially when it starts getting colder. Take vitamins and eat healthier to improve your immune system. Shower regularly so you dont accumulate filth. Yes, its going to be awkward doing communal showering for a bit but just do it because we will all thank you. Also make sure to get enough sleep so that your immune system is stronger. Okay I totally sounded like a germaphobe just now but after being seriously ill my second semester in college, I can tell yall its the last thing you want. You get an average of 4 unexcused absences for each class, and many times other students in your class will come in sick because theyve run out of absences and they spread yuckiness to everyone. Dont be that person. And more importantly, being sick can hurt your grades so take precaution! The End!
