collegecouture: high school vs. college (freshmen tips!)

[missag9]

I think the main reason why so many people kind of hit into a wall when they first start college is because in high school we were all allowed to be lazy, and we are not properly prepared for REALLY studying. So I think that's the main reason also as we are used to being lazy you often see a lot of "average" high school students whine about how hard college is and drop out. College is not hard... High school was just too easy.

[daceycouture]

@thehey1818 i got it from a site called kinglinen(dot)com! it's a great site! they have a ton of bedding sets and they are cheap! i searched forever for a damask printed comforter and couldn't find anything! finally i just did a google search and found that website! i think they still have it on their site! : )

[bluebearglory]

do professors call on students for answers like they do at high school?

[daceycouture]

@bluebearglory hmm for this it has depended on the class for me! for the most part, i would say not usually! especially if they are larger classes. i've only had 1 or 2 that have. i absolutely hate when professors/teachers do that because i am super shy and always get so nervous if i have to unexpectedly give an answer. so i have been pretty happy that that happens less often in college!

[MikaylaBrie]

I'm a junior in high school and freaking out about college. I go to a small school and plan ob attending a large college. I'm worried about classes, housing, pretty much everything.

[daceycouture]

@MikaylaBrie ohh no need to worry! it can be nerve racking and terrifying at first, but college is usually very laid back and an easy adjustment after a while! once you transition over and get used to it, it's not bad at all! and this is coming from someone who was scared to death! haha check out some of my collegecouture videos and maybe that will help! and if you ever need advice or would like a video over anything at all, don't hesitate to ask! and remember, no worries! : )

[allysonmariemusic]

Very helpful(: Thanks!

[daceycouture]

@allysonmariemusic you're very welcome! glad you thought so! : )

[RoarImADino]

Do you suggest sitting in a certain place in the class? Front versus Middle or Back?

[daceycouture]

@RoarImADino ahhh the dreaded "where do i sit?" i'm surprised i haven't gotten asked this yet! for me, i think it comes down to where YOU feel the most comfortable learning. many students feel more confident in the front of the class, closer to the board/professor. especially if they have trouble hearing/seeing. but for me, i get anxious and nervous at the front of the class and feel more relaxed and myself in the back. as long as you are engaged & interested in the class material,

[daceycouture]

@RoarImADino the professor probably will not mind where you sit. all in all i would just recommend sitting where you feel must comfortable and where you do your best learning!

[xXthinkxthinXx]

I'm going to be a freshman in college, and i already bought a vera bradley laptop bag, should i get the same color tote bag to go with it? or should i find another bag?

[daceycouture]

@xXthinkxthinXx hmm i guess it boils down to what type of bag will suit you best and fit all your needs! i actually just bought a vera bradley laptop bag too! (they are awesome, good choice! haha) but will probably not get a matching bag. just because i love the print of the laptop case and do not want to overdo it and get tired of the print or have to much of it. plus a plain bag will make the cute print on the laptop case stand out more. but you could match too! just personal preference! : )

[xXthinkxthinXx]

@daceycouture thanks!! i just found another bag, because the tote in the same would be too much, and a tote in a different color would be a hot mess. thanks for the advice! love your videos!! they help a lot.

[MrsFashionHairMakeup]

[NDSlovee]

Great video! Are you going to be a sophomore next year? Please make a dorm room tour for sure and other helpful college videos! Thanks :)

[daceycouture]

@NDSlovee yep, i'm going to be a sophomore! i have many college videos planned for the rest of the summer! in order to save money since dorms can be a little pricey, i'm not going to live in the dorms this year, but i do have a dorm room tour from my freshman year linked in the bottom bar if you would like to watch that! i will also be doing a room tour of the room i am in now (which is in my apartment.) let me know if you have any other requests! thanks for watching! : )

[NDSlovee]

@daceycouture yay :) and i see, a room tour of that room would be fine, thanks!

[xitsmaymay453x]

[daceycouture]

@mizzxlizzie thank you! never too early to start planning and getting ideas! haha i'm glad you like this series! : )

[lexy474]

I loved this video :) please do a note taking video!! I'm a science major and science professors suck at writing organized notes....great video and soooooo helpful

[daceycouture]

@lexy474 i will for sure be doing a note taking video once school starts back up! that way i have examples to show from my classes! thanks so much for watching! i'm glad you found this video helpful! : )

[Ix3Neon]

I loved this video. I'm only going into high school, but even so, I found it interesting and may help me in the future. It makes me wonder though... why would someone party on a Thursday? That's so silly. Why wouldn't you just party on Friday because I'm assuming you don't have classes on Saturday... or am I wrong about that? Anyway, amazing videos and I love you. You deserve every single subscriber you have and then some. <3

[daceycouture]

@Ix3Neon thanks so much! i'm so glad you liked the video! i used to wonder the same thing! haha but i have been informed that most people tend to have parties on thursday nights because many students will leave friday after there classes to head back home for the weekend, so they are usually not there friday nights (if that makes sense ) but yeah i guess that is the main reason, but who knows! haha

[Ix3Neon]

@daceycouture That makes total sense!

[daceycouture]

Respond to this video... woah that's crazy! i've heard stories like that from friends! it's amazing the professors are able to get anything graded! haha

[makeuplover786]

Thanks this is really helpful, I am so nervous for being a freshmen again.

[daceycouture]

@makeuplover786 i'm so glad you liked it! i was nervous too! it's hard because you feel so comfortable and experienced being a senior and then all of sudden you are back at the bottom being a freshman again! it's not bad at all though! you will do great! : )

[lalaloveyaalways]
