A Moment of Clarity

1. Underage drinking happens…ALOT

2. Organic Chemistry may be the hardest/pointless class you take to meet premed requirements since they are planning on removing the Organic Chemistry section from the MCAT and you will take it again once you get into med school…

3. You’ll sleep even less in college than you did in high school, unless you don’t have a social life or enjoy watching movies

4. You have full access to anyone (boy) at anytime…speaks for itself…

5. Being day drunk is a must!

6. Writing a paper intoxicated is also a must (Write drunk, edit sober ;))

7. You’ll spend a lot of time complaining about how expensive EVERYTHING is

8. You may change your major, oh say 6 times in the course of your college career.

9. That basketball player (or any sports player) that you thought was really cute, may not actually be the right guy for you

10. Don’t settle, no matter what!

11. Running across campus naked is acceptable, but I wouldn’t recommend it…

12. You will epically fail at least one class in your college career, it’s best if this happens your freshman year because it gives you time to recover…

13. Its okay to take that shot, or several…it’s the weekend you earned!

14. Its okay to have a crush on a Professor as long as you DON’T act on it

15. It’s a (insert day of the week…) night baby and you (I am) alive!

16. Professors will butcher your papers, but keep calm and carry on

17. You probably won’t ever be caught up on work, but you can try

18. Being a creeper is acceptable to an extent, but don’t reveal your creepiness to people you don’t actually know…

19. Yes, they did see you fall (or insert other embarrassing moment here) and yes the all laughed, but so what, laugh with them

20. And lastly, sometimes you just have to eat the damn cake and enjoy every fattening, sloppy minute of it.

For all of my fellow college mates who are having a similar college struggle, just remember, college will be a good as you make it. So when life hands you lemons, make lemonade and add a couple shots of vodka…

“i carry your heart with me (i carry it in
my heart) i am never without it (anywhere
i go you go, my dear; and whatever is done
by only me is your doing, my darling)
i fear
no fate (for you are my fate, my sweet) i want
no world (for beautiful you are my world, my true)
and it’s you are whatever a moon has always meant
and whatever a sun will always sing is you

here is the deepest secret nobody knows
(here is the root of the root and the bud of the bud
and the sky of the sky of a tree called life; which grows
higher than the soul can hope or mind can hide)
and this is the wonder that’s keeping the stars apart

i carry your heart (i carry it in my heart)”
— E.E. Cummings

With each step I draw you in,
Everything about me tempts you,
Closer I whisper, I beckon, I demand.
With each drag I grow bolder.
I am your friend,
I am the frenemy lurking in the shadows, waiting for your downfall
I silence the voices telling you to quit me.
I thrive on your dependency,
Don’t you see you will never be rid of me
I am here. I am everywhere.
Every place you’ve been I have waited.
Every hope and dream you’ve had I have crushed.
I am not one vice but thousands.
I give you some slack only to pull you back in, deeper each time
I wreck havoc on your system.
I am the dream you can’t wake up from,
I am not one poison but thousands and
quietly I whisper to you, I am addition.
