DITL of a third year college student

Day in my life! 📖

• TUESDAY •

I wake up at 7:30 on Tuesdays for my to be at my first class by 9:30. It’s about a 20ish minute walk from my dorm to the building I have my first class in. I got breakfast at about 8:30, although it looks bad it wasn’t a horrible breakfast. My first class is from 9:30-10:45 and my other class (in a different building, about a 5 minute walk) is from 11:00-12:15!

Then I head to grab some lunch and walk back to my dorm to do some laundry, studying, & get some chill time before dinner at 6 with some friends. 7:00 I go to Bible study until 8:30-9 and head home!

Not too bad for the second week of the second half of the semester!

... Read moreNavigating college can be exciting yet challenging for many students. As a third-year college student, my day often begins early, around 7:30 AM, preparing for classes and managing various responsibilities. On a typical Tuesday, I wake up energized and ready for the day ahead, starting off with breakfast around 8:30 AM. This time is crucial to fuel my body for a busy morning filled with back-to-back classes, including topics like communications and social sustainability. Post classes, I take a break to enjoy lunch at a local pizza place, where I can savor delicious food while connecting with fellow students. After a fulfilling lunch, I usually find some quiet moment to catch up on laundry and assignments at my dorm, reflecting the balance between personal time and academic obligations. My evenings are often reserved for social activities, like dinner with friends and participating in Bible study. This blend of academic and personal experiences shapes my college routine, marked by moments of learning, fellowship, and growth. Understanding the dynamics of college life, such as time management and social engagement, can truly enhance your student experience. Embracing these moments can lead to lasting friendships and deeper insights into the world of higher education. Whether you’re a prospective student or currently navigating your college years, connecting with others and sharing experiences like mine can provide valuable perspectives in this journey.

🤎Leitner System: Start out with a deck of flashcards. Every card starts in Box 1. If you get a card right, move it to the next box. If you get a card wrong, move it down a box or keep it in Box 1 (if it’s already there). This will help gamify your review and also show you your weak spots. 🤎PQ4R
