The Top 7 Things Freshman Should Never Do - Allison Redmond


The Top 7 Things Freshmen Should NEVER Do:


1. Disrespect Seniority.
-We have all been freshmen before, and we all know what it is like to be at the bottom of the food chain. It is for this reason that upperclassmen should be respected.   
2. Being involved in EVERYTHING.
-Don’t be that freshman who tries to be involved in EVERY extracurricular activity; this is not junior high. If you try to do everything you will be overwhelmed. Don’t make your life worse by getting involved in too much.
3. Not getting involved in anything.
-On the other hand, don’t be a loner. Find at least one or two activities that actually interest you, and enjoy them. You have to find a happy medium between too much and not enough.
4. Walk on the wrong side of the hallway.
-This is America. RIGHT SIDE NATIONWIDE.
5. Run in the hallway.
-Four minutes is PLENTY of time to get to your next class. Lunch will still be there even if it takes you an extra minute to get to the cafeteria. RUNNING IS NOT NECESSARY.
6. Talk.
-I’m mostly kidding, but don’t be that freshman who talks ALL of the time. Also, if you have something that absolutely needs to be said, THINK BEFORE YOU SPEAK. Those last four words could save your life in more areas than just school.
7. Let others define you.
-Remember that life is too short to be anyone but yourself. The decisions you make your freshman year, including whom you allow to influence you, will shape your future. MAKE WISE CHOICES.
