College Life
tania:
it really just depends. i have three housemates; one i have lived with for two years now, she initially started off as someone i kind of knew through a previous roommate and now is one of my best friends and favourite people ever. mostly i am saying that people tend to fall out when they room together due to the fact that it is sort of an impulsive "this will be awesome!" decision and that it is probably more important to take into account less the fact that you are friends and more how compatible you think you will actually be as roommates. i love all of my friends dearly, but there are some i could definitely see myself falling out with were i to live with them for an extended period of time.
Synorthion:
Being a 2nd semester senior I can say this: Make sure you have fun. College will probably be more work than high school, but there are (nearly) no rules, so go out and have a good time. If you sit in your room and do work all day college will suck, so be irresponsible, but keep it within reason. Stay up late playing Mario Kart, go out on weekends (and weekdays, sometimes), go to Wendy's at 3am, make your room badass. You're pretty much on your own, and almost no one will know you, so be who you want, it's a clean slate, just don't be a dudeguy. No one likes dudeguys.
Some other important things I can think of:
Avoid being peer pressured too much. Be willing to try new things, but don't let others control you.
Do stupid things, you're in college, you're allowed to be crazy. That being said don't neglect schoolwork, it's still important.
Honestly, I don't want college to end, it's such a fun time. The work sucks, but I have enough fun that when I leave school I'll remember the parties and fun times more than the work. So, go out there and enjoy the next 4 years.
Darkbluerabbit:
College is the only time in your life when it is socially acceptable to have booze for breakfast. Enjoy this, but not too much, and not on school days.
KvP:
Clearly you have never been an old, old man.
Darkbluerabbit:
I have not. Does this apply to old, old women as well? I like to think I have something to look forward to in life.
