Not much has changed
I was going through some old scrapbooks when I stumbled across this email I wrote to my friend BCL our Sr Year in college. Read below:
You know you've been in college too long when:
1. Your diet consists of coffee, vivarin, and fast food.
2. Keeping a fish alive is the most important accomplishment.
3. The dates keep getting older and older.
4. Watching TV (i.e. shows like "The Simpsons," "Friends," and "ER") becomes more important than studying.
5. Sleeping becomes more important than anything.
6. You can argue about the symbolism found in various episodes of "The Simpsons," but a 2 page paper on an entire book is totally beyond you.
7. Laundry becomes a major financial decision.
8. You can't see past the wall of graduation.
9. You routinely wander the apartment late at night writing strange and involved messages on memo boards as a method of procrastination.
10. If given a choice between buying bread and beer, you buy beer.
11. Mail is a reason for a party.
12. The people around you are all graduating.
13. When adding up your monthly expenses, you don't forget to include cover charge and beer money
14. The words, "I'm really stupid for going out tonight" come out of your moth at least once a week--usually while downing your third or fourth beer.
15. You spend every waking moment on Lambda Moo talking to various other deadbeats while still claiming, "I'm in control!"
16. You know how to get puke stains out of your clothes, especially red ones.
17. The people on TV keep getting younger and younger.
18. You get excited over spaghetti-os.
19. You think nothing of writing 45 cent checks
20. Ok...so he's nineteen. I was, too. Once.
Yeah, I've regressed. ;-)
