I haven't sat down to write in forever. Amazing how much I miss the act of actually processing my own brain waves. It's just so weird! This used to be a bedtime routine for me. Brush teeth, put in pajamas, check email, write in LJ, watch Nick at Nite, and then sleep. Guess the reality that no one will ever want to read my daily accounts as much as I want them to has set in. How could I romanticize the notion so much? Oh well, everyone's doing these video blogs that the other youngsters are into, and let's face it, I have a face for radio.
In an effort to prove that four year institutions do not prepare students for the real world, here is a list of things I have learned from my college studies, none of them having any practical application.
1. I will never stop loving Pokemon.
2. Drinking is fun!
2a. Your first hangover should not occur with your commencement ceremony.
3. No matter how long you stay on Facebook, that cute girl from swing dance club is not going to spontaneously chat with you.
4. Don't join a club just to meet girls.
5. Everybody loves Queen, and they'll want to hear Bohemian Rhapsody over and over again. But heaven forbid we ever listen to "Somebody to Love!"
6. There are more serious injuries attributed to beard grooming than shark and bear attacks combined. Cultivate with caution.
7. Your old high school friends have moved on, and if you try to rekindle your friendship, they'll think you're weird.
8. Love's a bit like being Spiderman: You'll feel good about the work you've done, but don't expect anything in return.
9. Don't be the upper-classman on the freshman hall. That's a world of hurt culminating in a 2 am drive home to get relief from the kids playing "Hit the Asian Kid on the Head with a Golf Ball." It's a stupid game, but you'll still be offended that you weren't invited to play.
10. People will love if you play guitar-just not classical guitar. A decade of lessons, and all they want is Lynard Skynard.
11. Whatever you do, don't graduate early.
