Conversation Topics For Incoming College Freshman
Conversation topics for incoming college freshman
(Here’s a link to my tips for college freshman worried about how to make friends)
Hey! I’m Em, a socially awkward person who has yet to master the art of conversation. To help all you people who might feel the same, here are some questions to ask beyond the basic ‘where are you from?’ and ‘what’s your major?’ I hope you find it helpful and I hope you kill it at college!
1. What dorm are you in? Do you like it so far? 2. Did you know your roommate before you came to college? 3. Are there any clubs you’re looking to join? 4. What is the farthest place you’ve heard someone here is from? 5. Why did you choose your major? 6. Which dining hall is your favorite so far? 7. Do you have any pets at home? 8. What other colleges where you looking at before you chose this one? 9. Which class are you most excited for? 10. Have you gotten lost yet? 11. Do you know of any haunted buildings on campus? 12. Do you know any upperclassmen? 13. Are you interested in rushing/do you have any family involved in Greek life? 14. Opinions on astrology? (For some reason, college peeps are big on zodiac signs) 15. Biggest fear for the upcoming semester? 16. Do you have a car on campus? 17. Have you climbed the rock wall yet? 18. Are you looking to get a job this first semester? 19. Whats your favorite thing that you bought specifically for college? 20. Do you have a favorite meme?
Now, these are all pretty basic starting points, so remember that after they answer, give them a two part response. First, react to what they said. Then, add onto it to provide the other person with something to respond to. Good luck!

I really had fun with this one, just putting things together as they feel right and exploring aesthetics. It’s my first time making a journal spread like this - I’ve definitely learned a lot from it!

The last few weeks have just been working, drinking coffee, rushing to catch lectures and then studying until late. On repeat. It has been so long since I’ve needed to study this much; but I can feel my french getting better everyday, so the hard work has been worth it ˚ʚ♡ɞ˚

Heyy guys! I found this really cool youtuber who does japanese language videos. They are super helpful when it comes to grammar, kana, and kanji. His channel is “gaijinquest”
17.5.2020 // Sunday
Woke up past 10am today and felt kinda shitty (which I usually do when I wake up late); but I pushed myself through an hour of cardio, made myself a nice hearty lunch and managed to finish one lesson of Korean notes! As the Movement Control Order extends to another month I really wanted to make full use of it so I started taking foreign-language-learning seriously. Hoping this momentum continues and I don’t slack off halfway.
I hope you’re adjusting well to the new normal, sending my best wishes! 🍀✨
