yet another forward about university life...

The Truth About University!

Before I went to university I wish I had known:

• That it didn't matter how late I scheduled my first class, I'd sleep through it anyway.
• That I could change so much and barely realize it.
• That you can love a lot of people in a lot of different ways.
• That university kids throw airplanes too.
• That if you wear polyester everyone will ask why you are so dressed up. (which is why I just wear track pants - practically all the time!)
• That every clock on campus shows a different time.
• That if you were smart in high school, so what?
• That I would go to a party the night before a final.
• That I could sleep until 12:55 and still make my 1:00 class. (it is possible to walk accross campus in four minutes! believe me...)
• That you can know everything and fail a test.
• That you can know nothing and ace a test.
• That the more money your parents give you, the less you have every time you check your account!!
• That parties get old, and sometimes you just want to kick back and watch a movie.
• That most of my education would be obtained outside of class.
• That the free food served until 10 is gone at 9:50.
• That I would go home every weekend my Freshman year.
• That I would laugh at all the Freshman going home every weekend my Senior year.
• That Sunday is a figment of the world's imagination.
• That Psychology is really Biology. That biology is really Chemistry, that Chemistry is really Physics and that Physics is really Math.
• That my parents would become so much smarter in the last few years. (but will I ever admit that to them? hmmm...)
• That it's possible to be alone even when you are surrounded by friends.
• That friends are what makes this place worthwhile!

Remember: "Don't be dismayed at good-byes. A farewell is necessary before we can meet again, and meeting again, after moments or a lifetime, is certain for those who are friends"
