Long line at Starbucks/Chic-fil-a and you have time? Hang out at one of the tables to catch up on schoolwork or other stuff. That way, waiting for the lines to get shorter won't feel as long!
Take care of yourself and always strive for growth. Don't be afraid to have fun too!
The people/community and the environment. Being a smaller school, I often run into people I've met through classes, clubs, etc. It's nice knowing that I'm not surrounded by complete strangers, and that some of those strangers may become my friends someday!
Being independent in college has really helped me grow into becoming my own person. The independence of becoming more responsible for myself makes me feel like I can stand on my own two-feet easier.
