Being in my senior year of college, if you want some advice, I can give you some.
First of all, you
should get excited, don't get off on the wrong foot with your classmates
While it is fun to choose your courses (I do the same) they are not mandatory, as you can choose to go to them or not.
In my case, I only go to those that interest me, and either skip or sleep through the boring ones.
I can hear you already (But then you'd fail!), nah, I just study those classes at home and aced them all.
Gives you lots of free time to do fun stuff!
Yeah, prepare for a lot of work though, college is where your true life starts and what you'll be doing for a
long time.
About the food, I know what you mean, we have 3 food sections, European, Italian and Asian.
The trick is, always eat soup and bread when you're at school
I've been doing this for 2 years now and it's a great way to save money and eat cheaply.
