Okay, this is long overdue. Here is a list of things I learned in college. Some, are funny, some are serious, some are about college, some are about growing up...and some will make you wonder what on earth I did for the past four years UCF.
PART THE FIRST:
1.) Go to class.
2.) Getting a B or even a C in a class will actually not kill you. A degree is a degree, a GPA is a number.
3.) You can study for seven hours and fail a test, you can also barely study and ace another test.
4.) It's amazing what smiling at someone can do when you need help... or want to make a friend.
5.) Stick with people who build you up... and people who have good habits (like studying... or working out.) YOU ARE WHO YOU HANG OUT WITH.
6.) Don't argue with the professor.
7.) Study... but not too much. HAVE FUN! Do things you've never done before even if they don't sound fun. Go to all the events, see the crazyness, BE the crazyness. This is the time to do everything you wanted to do when you were ten. Yea. Eat all the ice cream in the carton.
8.)LAUGH a lot. Don't get bothered by teachers who have accents or tests that come up outta nowhere. If you can't change it, find a way to make life FUN... or a funny story.
9) Do what you LOVE doing. Don't try to force yourself into a career that you don't have a passion for. Life is too short to choose money over JOY.
10.) Friends come and go. BUT that means that you get to make new friends and get to know different people and learn from them. Don't lose touch with your family, they matter.
11.) Pita and Hummus can be eaten at any time in massive quantities.
12.) No one wants to hear about your SAT score once your in college.
13.) If you stay up all night doing anything, you will spend the next two days in a state of exhaustion.
14.) Be careful who you trust. If you tell one person, you oftentimes tell TEN.
15.) Don't be swayed by flattery, wait for a guy who opens your door and can TALK to you for hours.
16.) If you're gonna drink, be safe. Be with a group of friends you trust, have a driver, stick together, don't leave your drink alone. And don't swim if you've had a bit too much.
17.) Take pictures of everything.
18.) Professors are people too... kinda.. talk to them lots in the office and you will succeed in class.
That's it for part one. More to come <3
I really like this :)
