Things I Learned in College
7> Nobody cares if I skip class. I’m still flunking, but at least
I don’t have to sit in detention!
6> A hangover sharpens your hearing enormously.
5> There’s a reason the “read a page, drink a beer” studying
strategy is not recommended by most educational experts.
4> Trying to drive your car up on two wheels: A) Doesn’t impress
your Physics professor as much as you thought it would, and;
B) Should be done in an *empty* parking lot.
3> Remember all that stuff your parents told you about the nerds
and the cool people in high school trading places later?
Apparently, that happens *after* college.
2> 90 = 100.
