On college move in day, there are always lots of stories. I knew a student who moved in with a pet snake in his backpack. He thought he could hide it from the dorm supervisor. But of course, it was discovered. It caused quite a stir. Then there were the students who met their future partners on move in day. They were helping each other carry boxes and just clicked. It's amazing how move in day can be the start of so many different things in college life.
Well, I remember on college move in day, there was this guy who brought a huge TV. He was so proud of it. But when he tried to get it through the narrow dorm hallway, he got stuck. People had to help him turn it sideways. It was quite a hilarious scene. Also, a lot of students had their parents with them, and some parents were more excited than the students themselves, like this one mom who was already making friends with other parents and planning study groups for their kids.
One interesting story is when my friend moved into his dorm. He had so many boxes that it took him three trips from the car to his room. And he accidentally dropped a box of his precious books on the stairs. Another is about a girl who found out her roommate was from the same small town as her. They became best friends instantly on move in day.
One of the most memorable college move in day stories was about a group of international students. They were all so excited but also a bit confused about the whole process. One of them had brought some traditional food from their home country and shared it with everyone on the floor. It was a really nice way to introduce different cultures. And then there was the boy who came with a big collection of action figures. He arranged them on his desk right away, which made his room look really unique.
One funny story is when my friend tried to carry a huge bean bag chair into his dorm room. He got it stuck in the doorway and after struggling for 10 minutes, he finally just deflated it and dragged it in. It was hilarious.
My first day of college was a bit overwhelming. There were so many new faces and things to take in. I remember sitting in the orientation session, listening to all the rules and opportunities. I was nervous about making friends, but then I joined a group activity where we had to introduce ourselves. It was through that I met some really cool people who are still my friends today. College really is about stepping out of your comfort zone, and that first day was the first step.
One of my friends on his last day of college organized a huge water balloon fight on campus. It was chaotic but so much fun. Everyone was running around, laughing, and getting soaked. It was a great way to let off steam after all the exams and stress of college life.
There was this college game day where the weather was extremely bad, pouring rain and strong winds. However, the fans were still so passionate. They stayed in the stands, drenched but cheering louder than ever. The players also showed great tenacity, slipping and sliding on the muddy field but still giving their all. It was a day that really showed the spirit of college sports.
A girl moved into her college apartment. As she was unpacking, she noticed that there were small holes in the walls. Later that night, she heard scurrying sounds. Turns out there were mice living in the walls. It was terrifying for her as she was afraid of rodents. She had to call the maintenance immediately to deal with it, but she couldn't sleep well for several days until the problem was resolved.
One of my first day of college stories was getting completely lost on campus. I was trying to find my first class, but the campus was so much bigger than my high school. I ended up asking a kind senior who not only showed me the way but also gave me some great tips about the best places to study on campus.
One interesting college story could be about a group of students who organized a charity event on campus. They worked hard to raise funds and awareness for a local community project. It was amazing to see how they brought the whole campus together, from setting up booths to promoting it on social media.
Many students will talk about their first day in the cafeteria. There are so many new food options and it can be a bit intimidating to figure out where to sit. Some might also mention the first time they saw the library and were in awe of all the resources available, realizing how different college was from high school.
A college girl might have a 'little's day' filled with simple joys like spending the day in the campus library surrounded by her favorite books. She could find a cozy corner, sip on a warm cup of coffee, and get lost in the pages of a novel for hours.
