This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at WM chapter.

1.     Banner has screwed you over on more than one occasion during course registration.

 

2.     You know not to talk on the third level of Swem unless you want everyone to hate you.

3.     You are sort of afraid to complete the triathlon because one of your professors proved that there are flesh-eating bacteria in the Crim Dell.

4.     You have a harder time finding a seat at Wren 10 than you do at a football game.

5.     You are afraid to walk over the Crim Dell bridge by yourself because if you do, you will be forever alone.

6.     This is how your friends from other schools think you party:

7.     When someone says that they’re from D.C., you know that they actually mean NoVA.

8.     Day or night, you’ve tripped on multiple cobblestones.

9.     Williamsburg weather = 30 degrees and snowing on Monday, 75 and sunny on Tuesday.

10. “I failed my test.” = “I got a B.”

11. One word to describe the end of classes: Blowout.

 

12. Late night Wawa runs.

13. You get mad at tourists who don’t know how to navigate Confusion Corner.

14. You develop strong feelings, positive or negative, towards the W&M squirrels.

15. You’ve done the Swem walk of shame after it closes at 2 AM.

16. You thought you were smart in high school… then you came here and realized that you don’t know anything.
