then end in sight. (Hopefully)

Speaking retrospectively, college has been fun. Well, not going to class, or studying, or taking finals, but like the experience of it was fun. Its only during freshman year when at the drop of a hat friends will journey to Manhattan, or Lawrence for a night of hard partying on a monday. Sophomore year brings a little more of the same, but with some responsiblity because everybody's GPA is hovering around 2.0. Junior year is when all the trouble starts again as 21 is the magical number that opens the doors to every bar in town, but money gets tight after awhile, so the bars become foreign to some. Finally in the fall of that last year the mind becomes focused on the prize, fixated on it daily. You don't go to the bars anymore, unless it's like a random thursday, or something fun is going on. Studying becomes a habit, friends stop by to watch TV, noone drinks everyone has class tomorrow. As sleep sets in and the eyes close thoughts reflect on four years worth of late nights spent studying, sleep that was sacrificied on the altar of the almighty passing 'C', copious amounts of caffiene and nicotine consumed to keep the eyes open and the hands moving, naps between finals, and spending that last twenty bucks on enough Ramen noodles to keep you fed til you got back home after finals week. And though many think the end is in sight few are sure that the day will ever come.

New start

School sucks, but that's day one stuff. There's nothing more exciting as a child than getting new crayons, back pack and shoes then to realize all this new stuff isn't worth 12 years of public education, but hell most would love to go back to high school than and load up on AP courses than pay ungodly amounts of money per credit hour. Which brings me to my only point 'When i spend all my hard earned cash on books, how the hell am i supposed to pay for all the beer i drink?!' If you have any suggestions let me know.
