Freshman year of college is FULL of feelings. You just graduated, said your goodbyes and packed up as much of your life as you could to head off to college. It’s a bittersweet feeling, knowing that you’re leaving a big part of your life behind and venturing off into the unknown. You could be feeling an array of things from nerves to excitement to plain confusion about what your future holds. I’m here to tell you that all of those feelings are okay to have, and they’re expected. Starting your journey into adulthood is a huge deal and can be a little scary. But you should know first and foremost that you’re not alone. Everyone on your campus is going through or has gone through the same thing, and there’s nothing wrong with feeling overwhelmed or anxious.
