We have GWC comment splog ...

Done with exams! Whee!
And I got my third research paper back. B. What a surprise. But hey, it's better than a B-.
So here we go, STUFF I LEARNED AT COLLEGE: PART 1.
1. 8 a.m. is a b*tch.
2. If you can complain about a grade higher than a C, you're in good shape.
3. The quarter circle at the back of first year studio is a very comfortable place to nap.
4. Refund checks can buy a lot of groceries.
5. The honors program is useless.
6. Make good contacts - one to help you with class, one to help you move heavy things and fix your car, one to share your guy/girl troubles, one who can cook, one to fix your computer, and a boyfriend/girlfriend (or at least someone who will go buy you food and medicine if you're sick), for example.
7. Clean your room whenever you have a chance.
8. Set three alarms on test days.
9. Always check the forecast before leaving your room.
10. Beer, taquila, salvia, and Waffle House don't mix well (be a designated driver).
11. Private rooms are good.
12. Automatic locks are bad.
13. The fire alarm will go off at an ungodly hour before an important test or exam.
14. Most professors are understanding of students' need for caffeine.
15. Proper daily preparation for November to March: shower, underwear, pants, light top, sweater, coat, gloves, hat, scarf, backpack, hot chocolate/coffee, keys, depart.
16. There is no cow level.
17. Night classes have a big impact on your social life.
18. Someone will go to the hospital during studio hours.
19. Buy economy size laundry products.
20. Always have quarters and small bills handy.

I could keep going, but I figured that would start to get boring ...
