True Statements About College...

I remember getting this email before I came to college, and it still amazes me at how applicable and how true these statements are. I decided to post these rather than pictures tonight because I am exhausted...I only posted the ones that I can relate to, so that this post isn't a mile long as usual.


50 THINGS ADMISSIONS NEVER TOLD YOU ABOUT COLLEGE

1. Quarters are gold.

2. Two meals per day is the standard.

3. Road trip whenever possible.

4. Going to the mailbox was never an ego booster/breaker before.

5. You will begin to nap again.

6. Your bookstore bill will almost equal tuition. (*well...not at APU!)

7. Instant messenger becomes an addiction.

8. E-mail becomes your second language

9. You never realized that so many people were smarter than you.

10. Procrastination is an art form. (*AMEN!)

11. SNOOD is more addicting than pot. (*Seriously...we were SO addicted to Snood our first year!)

12. The health service nurses are there because they couldn't make it at a real hospital. Never, ever forget that.

13. Care packages are right up there with birthdays. (*hint, hint, LOL)

14. Campus is only (*really, really) clean for Family Weekend and Freshman Orientation.

15. Nothing you want to register for will be open. (*Until junior/senior year)

16. Classes... the later the better.

17. You are no longer thankful that the fire alarms are here to protect you. (*Freshman year,
anyone? Those STUPID people who set off the alarms as a prank at 2am should be severely punished!)

18. Jeans may be worn as many times as the wearer desires.

19. Cereal makes a meal any time of the day.

20. You will eat anything that is free.

21. ATM's are the devils advocate. ATM = Another Twenty Missing.

22. Duct tape heals all wounds.

23. You realize college is the ideal life style, except for those pesky classes



YOU KNOW YOU'VE BEEN IN COLLEGE TOO LONG WHEN...

You actually like doing laundry at home.

You'd rather clean than study.

"Oh man how did it get so late!" comes out of your mouth at least once a night.

You live for getting mail.

Looking out the window is a form of entertainment.

You start thinking and sounding like your roommate. (*Only applicable for Freshman and Sophomore years)

Rearranging your room is your favorite pastime.

The weekend lasts from Thursday to Sunday.



Ah...167 days and I will no longer be able to say those things are true about my life...that's kinda sad! :) But I'll deal with it!
