School is over and Summer has begun

The school year has ended, final grades have surfaced, tears have been shed as a result of both of these, but now it is time to reflect upon freshman year in college. Although some people successfully have a blood alcohol level higher than my GPA and still find a way to live, the rigorous curriculum of CGS at BU has proven that it is still the alpha male in our relationship. That is enough reflecting on grades and other things in regards to school because it’s time to relax. Instead, I will reflect on the things that I have learned not in school but either in hockey or through social interaction with friends, or those who unfortunately have made an insignificant entry into my life.

 

1.    Girls tend to cry during or after sex when they lose their virginity. In addition to crying excessively because of their undying love for the man pipe, girls find it necessary stare at their lover as if they were pretending to be a scarecrow.

2.    Money is temporary. As someone who is thankfully not Jewish, I tend to be very conservative with money. As a wise friend had once told me, money is only temporary, so thanks to him, I have washed out my bank account, blacked out, tried to pick fights, and yelled obscene things at people. Thanks man, you truly know how to send me in the right direction

3.    Girls who lose their virginity to their boyfriends “tend” to try to save their relationships even though they understand that they are failures. Most girls will tend to disagree with this statement but its only because they would feel inferior to men even more then they already do if they agreed.

4.    California people are all pretty much the same. That is self explanatory

5.    Going bar down is probably the best feeling in the world. Whether you are by yourself or in a game, tickling the twine where grandma keeps the cookies is better than anything.

6.    Going out any day of the week can be justified by making a tribute to that day. For example, going out on a Tuesday night can simply be justified by making a toast stating, “3^rd Tuesday of the month and last Tuesday before the last Friday before midterms.”

7.    Jager bombs are the best drinks at any bar

8.    Irish car bombs are the worst drink at any bar besides water. (Geeb)

9.    Frats at many schools are a way for kids, who weren’t accepted in high school and were frequently bullied, to finally feel like they are a part of something. I am not saying that is a good or bad thing but rather is a fact of life. Frats pretty much accept everyone and you pay to be friends at first.

10. Girls are status whores. Not saying they are whores, which is likely, but they thrive on the fact that their boyfriends or their purses are the best available. If it will make them look better, then they will feel better about having it. Not concerned with quality, personality, or good looks, girls want any way to gain an edge on the social ladder.

11.  On a less insulting note, something I’ve known to be true, but gains more and more truth everyday is “friends are family.” Stick true to those who are true to you. It is easy to filter because if you have more than five people that fit in this category then it is time to re-evaluate.

 

I’ve learned a lot of valuable things in life that don’t have anything to do with school. The school of life doesn’t offer a bachelor’s degree in college, but instead offers a much more valuable degree, a degree in integrity, loyalty, self-awareness, trust, respect, amusement, and of course, doing the things you love to do.

 

Got to. Want to. Need to. Love to.
