“Time isn’t wasted when you’re getting wasted.”

Thank you Asher Roth for this new epic and accurate song about college.

I suggest everyone at least give it a listen or a view here. If you’ve been to college, you’ll know it’s like that. If you’re in college, raise your cup high and live the dream. And if you are headed to college, this is a pretty good representation of what you’ll run into.

At least for my friends it is. The parties might not be quite that big, but they can get that crazy. Particularly Pike. Fucking ridiculous.

Actually, they could even add in another verse about crazy girl drama and making out with the same guys on the same night (two of my friends totally did that).

I got straight A’s last semester, and I think that affected me a bit because now I’m all about grades and doing well, and despite the fact that I don’t start any of my classes before noon, I hardly go out, even on weekends. This needs to change.

I’m doing better. I went out on a Tuesday this week, a first for me in about a year. I just need to step it up a bit. It’s so worth it. It’s all about the experience right? (Answer: HELL YES)

That is, being responsible. My friend’s don’t call me Sensible for nothing.
And For those headed to college? Listen up. I have some experience to share.

If you go to a school in a different state than you live in and no one you know goes to that school: Freshman year will be a let down if you expect to walk in and have parties that are like the ones you went to while you were a senior in high school and were crashing the local college to party. It’s a year of piggy backing off the slutty girls who get invited to everything, and wandering down the street lost, or getting off the bus at the loudest stop to find that crazy party off in the distance. You’ll end up at a lot of frat parties and crash a few house parties. And you WILL drink in the dorm. Even the RA’s don’t care, except the one ass hole that will have it out for you all year long. Don’t worry, say he sexually harassed you and he wont be bothering you again.

But eventually, you’ll find those friends, you’ll get into the right parties, and you’ll meet the right people. The key? Always take the opportunity when you see it. Going to a new place tonight? Go for it!  Have to protect your slutty friend from what will inevitably be a date rape scenario at a dive bar? Go for her sake. She’ll be even harder to live with if she gets molested.

Remember the three “S”s of college: Sleep, School, Social Life.

The catch? You can only have two.
