In reply to college life...a joke?, posted by madison88 on October 7, 2002, at 20:31:22
Hi Madison,
> i just met with a few people from a class to go over a class project. we talked about it for ten minutes and then they spent the next 40 detailing how much they drink, ....
First, perhaps they aren't exactly the "sharpest tools in the shed" if you know what I mean. See if you can find some people with whom to work who are somewhat serious about their education.
Second, there is LOTS to the "college life" other than getting wasted drunk. OK, so I'm weird, but I drank maybe half a pitcher of beer in all my four years -- total -- and I wasn't on any meds at the time.
Don't try to conform. What makes you special isn't being like everyone else. College is where you find out exactly who _you_ are and where you want to go in life. Wasting time on conforming is self-defeating.
Take care and be yourself,
Ted
