You’re not going anywhere! You have homework to do!
You have syllabi to read and binders to organize!
If you need a diversion you should call your mom and ask her advice about college life! Make small talk with your roommate about which posters you’re going to hang over your bunkbeds! Do your laundry!!!
Just kidding. Have fun. Here’s a list of things to do.
