Whose parents make them ramen noodles?
They’re a college staple for a reason, but one cannot live on ramen alone.
No way am I going to be falling into the ramen trap! Good healthy meals for me.
Um…every day?

Do you wake yourself up, or does a parent have to?

Ready? Scroll down to answer

I can’t deny that when I’m on my own I tend to not make it to school on time.
I have an alarm clock that works just fine.
I use my own alarm clock, but every now and then a parent does have to come harass me to get up.
My mom gets me up every day.

Do you know what you want to major in?

I have a few ideas, but I’m planning to try a couple classes in each before I make a final decision.

You've always been a straight A student and you get back your first paper in college with a C+. What do you do?

Ready? Scroll down to answer

I’ve…definitely never been a straight A student.
I brush it off. It was just a fluke.
I go straight to the teacher and demand a different grade, or at least to know why it was so bad. I have to fix this.
I look over what I did to try to understand the grade, and during office hours talk to the professor to see what I can do differently in the future.

You get invited to a frat party. Do you go?

Ready? Scroll down to answer

Hell yes! Isn’t that what college is about?
Probably, unless there’s a big test tomorrow. I am going to be hurting after this party.
Probably not. I don’t really drink much, and I have some clubs I’m doing in the evenings. Maybe if my friends go.
I prefer smaller parties with my friends. I try to stay balanced between studying and having fun though, so maybe.

How often do you drink?

Ready? Scroll down to answer

I don’t drink.
I know I’m underage, but I’ve had alcohol a few times. I know what my limits are though, and it’s not something I like to do very often.
I haven’t ever really had alcohol before which is why I’m looking forward to college. Time to party!
Probably more than I should.

Can you do your own laundry?

Ready? Scroll down to answer

I don’t understand how this is a question.
Does it count if I don’t sort darks and lights and I’ve never used stain remover?
Sure. I CAN do my own laundry.

When left to your own devices, how often do you leave your room?

Ready? Scroll down to answer

I have a lot going on, so I’m not at home much. I like to stay involved.
There are occasionally days where I don’t go anywhere, but usually I’m out and about.
I have been known to spend a full weekend on my computer.
Does it count as leaving the house if I go over to my friend’s to smoke pot?

Have you ever had to do public speaking?

Ready? Scroll down to answer

I’ve given a few presentations in school, but I really do not like them.
We had to do a couple presentations or lead class each year in school. I feel fairly comfortable with it.
I actually really enjoy presenting, especially academic information!
You cannot make me speak in front of other people.
