‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍My first week as an IUP student was pure hell. Coming from a big city, and then moving to a small town in the middle of no where was challenging. I thought I would die. It was too quiet to sleep at night, the food was god‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍-‍‍‍awful, there was no real form of public transportation, my roommate was crazy, I was a nursing major by force, it rained daily, and my family was five hours away.
