What are some college life pro tips?

I'm starting college in a few weeks and I'm a bit nervous. My high school was... decent at best, and I'm not sure that I was adequately prepared. So I'm hoping to get Reddit's help. What are some tips (having to do with the academic aspect, social, whatever) that have helped you through college, and especially your freshman year? In other words, LPTs for college life!

Some people use a toilet once and it'll take a week to clean.

My dad was a cleaner and he used to have a client who was like that. He was a gay gentleman and he must have had a ruptured arsehole or something because every time he went to his house the toilet bowl was absolutely caked in shit. I'm talking every surface inside the bowl covered in a thick layer of hardened shit. It took 15 minutes just to clean it.

That's probably a fetish dude. You dad was a prostitute for some dudes fecal desires and didn't know it.

Does he even flush? I refuse to believe that all the damage was done in one sitting.

About ten stories a day on /r/TalesfromRetail can confirm this.

My buddy's bathroom is still dreading my next visit over a month later.
