Malia Obama, 17-year-old daughter of President Obama, is preparing to end her tenure as First Daughter and begin her stint as a college freshman. To do so, she’s been dipping into the world of the normals—landing a sick summer internship and checking out schools. Most recently, she visited Brown, where she apparently did pretty normal things that sent Brown students into a tizzy.

GoLocalProv reported that Obama stayed with a friend at a dorm on campus called Morris Hall, which was surrounded by “high and visible” security.

The Tab reported on October 10th that Malia was on campus “RIGHT NOW,” and excited students began tweeting their sightings.

It looks likes Malia spent a fairly average day touring the campus, doing things like eating:

And generally inspiring FoMo:

Welcome to normal American life, Malia. And Brown students: try to acquire some chill.

A White House spokesperson did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
