-The actual meaning of a FLOP house
-How to drive drunk
-How to drive high
-How to eat a Jello shot
-You never get over that first crush... especially when they end up going to the same college as you!
-It's not so hard to get a girl to sleep with you
-There's no shame in taking advantage of a drunk girl... I can't help it if they stumble back to my dorm with me
-Southern's beds are REALLY loud during sex
-How much the morning after pill is
-Snorting stuff cuz a hot girl u just madeout with tells u to do it might be a good idea at the moment... but it's not
-I can actually skip class MORE than I did in Holy Cross
-I'll never always be a slacker

-You can get an A on a paper you wrote high and/or drunk
-You can get an A on a 3 page research paper that was supposed to be 10 pages
-You can get an A on a paper because you're gay
-Theater is spelled theatre
-Getty is the greatest place when you have the munchies
-Hoot Loot is GOD! (Daddy still doesn't know about the $3,000 I've charged LOL)
-How to sneak someone into your room
-TEQUILLA IS EVIL!!! (I still drink it though)
-You make so many friends faster if you smoke
-West Campus suite showers can hold 3 people in them
-The world doesn't exist to me before 10 AM... how the hell did I get through high school?!
-Someone you've seen less than 10 times can turn into your best friend
-Puerto Ricans are just EVIL... I swear it's in their blood!
-A girl IS a legitimate reason to miss things like class and club meetings that you're president of
-Alcohol does crazy things... like cause you to make out with people you NEVER thought you would... EVER!!!!!!!!!!!! *coughMKcough* But it's worth it if it gives you an excuse to makeout with your crush later!
-Olive Garden puts crack in their breadsticks causing you to go to lunch there weekly instead of going to class
-Roomates make some of the best psychologists
-"Grapes of Wrath" may be one of the worst movies ever, but sitting there holding hands with the girl you like makes the 2 hours of torture worth it.
-As much as I hate it, I have a soft spot for Goth girls
-How to parallel park
-Falling in love with my best friends is an all to common occurrence for me
-How to make a Niner (the drink me+MK created)

-What it's like to be tied up on a rack, blindfolded, and whipped by your love interest
Most importantly I learned: "Hearts break. Hearts mend."
Your first love won't be your only love. Getting to experience the feeling of falling in love all over again is worth all of the bullshit I've been through this year.
