College Life: 49 Tips

I've been very busy this week ignoring my emotions, because my baby sister is going to college for the first time this fall and if I let myself think about it I'm going to burst into reality television worthy tears. But another big sister went above and beyond the call of duty, crafting this list of things to know before you go to college — 49 of them, in fact. Imgur user gurltalk compiled the expansive list and then wrote it all by hand, classy person-style. And since 'tis the season for pre-college anxiety and older sibling emotions, this was basically a perfect recipe for going mad viral on the internets.

Of course, there is no "one size fits all" going to college. This girl's advice to her sister certainly won't apply to everyone. (Can I get a "WOOT" from all the other awkward freshman year designated drivers in the back?) But the feel of it is so universal that even if you don't take all of her advice, you can appreciate all the time and love that went into making it. Plus, she tells her sister a lot of mega important things that none of those fancy schmancy "How To College 101" books even touch on. (Example: BRING TAMPONS. Bring them EVERYWHERE.)

Here's the full list:
