Welcome to college freshie! How’s it feel to finally be here? Hope we have helped you prepare you for this big time in your life! Now that you’re in your new home, new neighborhood, what’s next? What I love about being in a new place is it means there’s a whole lot to explore! Here are a few, quick tips to get started if you have yet to explore your new college neighborhood:
欢迎新生！终于来到大学了，感觉如何？希望我们在你人生如此重大的时刻有帮到你！现在你置身于你的新家、新环境，下一步做什么？我喜欢到一个新地方，因为这意味着又有许多事情等我去探索！如果你还没有探索你新的大学的周边，不妨来看看这些小提示：
ASK AROUND
四处打探
The best way to find about the cool places to hang out, eat, and party can be found out from the people you meet! I learned a lot from sophomores and juniors that I became friends with after joining various student groups. If you’re a little shy in asking the older crew, one person who’s there to help is your RA. I’m sure they would be more than happy to give you deets on their favorite/best things to do around town.
找到一个很棒的地方去玩、去吃饭、或是开派对的最好的方法莫过于从认识的朋友那里打探！我加入了各种学生社团后结识了很多学长并和他们成为了朋友，我也从大二、大三的学长那里学到了很多。如果你有点腼腆，不好意思去问学长，还有一个人可以帮你，就是助研。我很确定他们会很乐意帮助你，并告诉你在这里他们所喜爱的和最棒的事情。
THE INTERWEBZ
上网转转
Yelp, online blogs, etc. They’re great resources to help you find those awesome college student things to do around the neighborhood. Interested in art/history? Maybe there’s a really famous (or small) museum nearby campus! All about the outdoors? You might want to check out the hiking trail not too far from your dorm. Whatever your interests, the internet was a beautiful creation that gives you a guide on what to & what not to try.
Yelp（美国点评网站）、网上博客等等，都是很棒的资源，可以帮你找到在学校附近大学生能做些什么事情。对艺术或是历史感兴趣？也许校园附近就有一个有名气的（或是很小的）博物馆！热爱户外？你可能会去找找从宿舍出发的徒步旅行路线。不论你的兴趣是什么，万能的网络总能指导你去做什么，当然还有什么不能尝试。
EXPLORE ON YOUR OWN
身体力行
As much as I appreciate people’s suggestions on things to do, I honestly love exploring and finding those things out on my own. It’s a little more fun and adventurous. Plus, there’s something special about accidentally finding that little, hole-in-the wall coffee shop on Wilbur Ave.
至于去做什么事情，我非常感激前辈给出的各种建议，但说实话，我更爱亲自探索、发掘那些事情。这样更有趣，更有冒险风情。另外，不经意间在威尔伯大街上发现在墙壁中若隐若现的小咖啡店总让我感觉别有一番滋味。
Your university will be your new home for the next 4 years. Might as well find out what other awesome things it has to offer! Am I right?
你的大学将是你未来4年的家。不妨探探它都提供些什么神奇超赞的东西！你说不是吗？
