New Terms in College

As promised, here is the blog post about words in college that are new for us. These words actually aren't new, they're just not used in high school that's why they are new to us. Just like the last post, this will just be a short list. :)

1. Block
This is what you call your section or your class. People will be asking what block you belong and we hope you don't mistaken it as a Lego block. :))

2. Blockmate
What do you call your classmates now if a class in college is called block? Swear this really will confuse you during the first week.

3. Professor
This might be familiar already. As Google defined, a professor is a teacher of the highest rank in a college or university. :D

4. Term
Remember first to fourth quarter of high school? Term is the new term for it now! Allow us to introduce you academic term of college! :)

5. Finals
One of the most crucial part of college. For sure you've heard of hell week. Finals is the last week of a term wherein you'll take your final exams.

6. Frosh
You were a freshman, sophomore, junior and senior in high school. Guess what, you will repeat it again in college. Frosh means a college freshman.

7. Plates
This isn't a dining utensil that you use to place your food. If you're an art student then you probably know what this thing is. Hahaha! xD

8. Happy Thursday
We were all innocent back in high school right? Well, most of us! Haha! In college, students tend to start clubbing or partying. Why Thursday? It's because most college students don't have a Friday class therefore they could party all night of Thursday.

That's all of the words that we've just recently heard in college. If you know more words that should also be here then feel free to include them by posting a comment below! Thanks for reading and we'll see you on our next post! :)
