DU Orientation

General
Well, Orientation starts tomorrow for school. After being out of the system for a year, i got a feeling i'm gonna go crazy! Anyone have any tips for keeping your sanity in school?
It's not that i don't think i can do well, looking at some people who went through college i know i'm going to thrive there, but i guess i'm just psyching my self out. I guess it's a mixture of not knowing what i want to do when i get out but having the expectation of my self to be the best at whatever I do.
Something else that's slightly troublesome is the stereotypes of the students at the school. People say they are really stuck up an preppy, something that really grinds my gears. I guess i'll find out if my preconcieved notions have any merit tomorrow.
I'll post my schedule when i get it this thursday/friday.

I keep my sanity by ALWAYS making sure I have time to play and do whatever I want. If you work too much you over do it and burn yourself out. I also always have a sketchbook handy! ;D
Hm... In my college at least, stereotypes are not as black and white as appearance. I know a few people who look jockey and preppy but they are quite nice :> Just get to know people and you will do just fine. I can understand that high pitched squeals over a hot guy constantly can get irritating but it isn't high school anymore, and chances are that if the professor gets irritated by it the squealer(s) may not be staying in the class very long.
Thanks for the words of encouragement!
No problem :>
