Silly things to do on my first day
Obviously I will just be nervous and quiet, but what could I do on my first day at uni to mess with people's heads?
Im a 40yo woman returning to uni part time to study Applied Community and Social Care Studies at my local university.
My daughter suggested I bring an old fashioned typewriter to take my notes.
Or how about carrying round a guitar case, but when someone asks if I play guitar, act like it's the strangest question I've ever heard before pulling out a flute. (I don't play flute)
Or simply bring my cats in a cat pram...

Umm... do none of these things, because you're 40 not 12.

Like I say, obviously I will just be nervous and quiet, but humour me!

Once again from the top...
DO NOT do any of these things.
Bad idea.
Completely unadvisable.
Step away from the immature prank ideas. Put them down slowly and back away.
Repeat after me... "I am a mature 40 year old responsible woman. I do not pull off weird pranks at university in order to seem cool. Nobody will think I'm cool if I do these things... they will think I'm incredibly strange because I will be acting like a complete plonker."

You might need to network with these people in the future, best not to be known as the typewriter gal (someone will probably make a TT video of it...).
