Well i'm at the bottom of the totem pole again. If you guys have any advice for a hopeless romantic dyslexic college student that would be top notch. Funny stories/anecdotes would be awesome also. I need advice for dorms, showering in communal showers, and anything else you think would be important.

thanks, now here are some pictures of my pussy.

Go to class. Most students who do poorly don't go to class. It's not like high school where you've got a test once every 2 weeks, and therefore easy to study for. I've had classes where I've had an exam once every 2 1/2 months. That's a lot of material to prepare for. Going to class everyday will get you recognition from your professors, because not many people do it. Maybe not your first year, since you'll probably have large classes in an auditorium. If nothing else, you may find a girl to hook up with. My first girl in college I met in class.

I lived in a dorm my first year. I wouldn't change that decision; it was awesome. I did most if not all of my partying my first year, and then I settled down. There's too many stories to tell, so I won't. As far as showering, don't be a pussy. I presume you never played sports in high school. Wear flip flops to that bathroom though, regardless of what you're in there for. Guys jack off in those showers, because they're not going to do it in the dorm with their roommate in that 7 x 12 room with them.

Don't be an asshole in the dorm. Don't be loud or fuck up shit in the hallways. Your RA will want to suck you off if you're a good tenant, and then you can probably get away with more. It's best not to have a stash of alcohol in the room for any reason. If you want to drink, buy what you expect to drink, and drink it. People will pull that fire alarm, and when you have to evacuate, the firefighters will go in and inspect every room, opening cabinets, drawers, etc. I saw way too many people get kicked out of the dorm for possession of marijuana and such, and tons of people get large fines because they found their stash of Everclear, Malibu, Goldschlager, Jager, etc.

That brings me to another point: don't be a fag and drink Natty Light. It's piss water, not beer. Just because it's cheap doesn't mean you have to drink it. When I see people who drink Natty Light I think one thing: unemployed slackoff with $20 in his pocket. You're better than that. Drink Guinness. Don't be afraid to experiment with different cocktails, either. Who knows, if you learn enough about it, you can be a bartender, and that's probably the best way to make good money in college.

Focusing on class, preparing for the MCAT, and going to med school.

Good advice CD! and eating healthy is good advice too. Hard to do in college, but good advice.

The main thing is, don't lose sight of what you're there for. It's real easy to let classes and studying get in the way of all the parties, booze and women ... uh ... wait ... reverse that.

Budget your time. I had a friend in school that went out with us drinking all the time. He was always hanging out in the fraternity house at night, etc. I never could figure out how he made straight A's. It took me a couple of years to finally catch on to his secret. Most of us finished class at noon and then goofed off all afternoon. This guy would go straight from class to the library and study all the stuff while it was still fresh in his head. By the time everybody headed for the bars he already had several hours of study time under his belt. And like CD said, it's hard to cram for tests in college because there is so much information. You have to keep up as you go along.

oOo: part of being a college student is drinking cheap booze to get drunk... you (should) have better things to spend your money on than expensive booze... there is nothing wrong with starting the night with good beer, but good luck drinking guiness all night rolleyes: most parties will have cheap ass beer (natty light).. you will drink it and you will get drunk off it period. dont waste what money you have at college on getting drunk off expensive alcohol.

it was difficult to keep beer in the dorms freshman year so i stuck to cheap ass vodka or rum for pregaming.

I partied really hard all the time last year. Im over it...you'll be the same way. Sure, Im going to get fucked up and do drugs this year, but it wont be the same. GO TO CLASS, the one thing you MUST do..you'll learn. I cant give you any advice for the shower, since I had my own in my triple...this year Im stuck in the communal showers too! ed:

Where are you going to school?

My college years were the best years of my life and I still have one more year to go. Obviously you should go to class, but get involved in anything that interest you. Youll meet a lot of people like that, especially girls. Do you work during the week so you have the weekends to hang out. Also try to meet someone that has a car if you do not have one, it will make your life a lot easier. And you dont have to start figuring out what you want to do your freshman year, but definitely start getting ideas and start heading in that direction. That was probably my biggest mistake, I kind of just went with the flow for 2-3 years and then just picked a major that interested me, but I didnt see any career I wanted to do with it.
