man, i was so glad to be done with college.

my only advice to you would be to pick a major in something
you REALLY enjoy. because you are going to be spending a
shitload of your time and life doing it. even if it is not
in a field that will get you a high paying job in the
future. as long as you are the best at whatever you study,
you can eventually make money doing it. unless you are
totally bent on becoming rich. but getting rich doing
something you hate doesn't seem like it's worth it to me.

yeah, i don't know. i really like having an understanding
of the natural world through science but it would have been
pretty sweet if i could have become fluent in japanese and
went to japan to hang out with my family for a couple
years.. who knows.

just don't get stuck in some major that you totally hate.
it will make your college career creep along at a torturous
rate.

oh, and, fuck a lot of chicks. this is the time of
life where many chicks are 'giving it up' and once you are
out of college, it becomes increasingly difficult to find
these kinds of girls.

actually,
by my senior year, i stopped buying textbooks.

most of my professors gave exams directly out of stuff
covered in lecture and i took very good notes. if i ever
needed to reference the book, it was easy enough to borrow
one (great way to meet fuckable women) or go to library and
check it out.

books are expensive. if you can get away with not buying
them, you will save a heap of cash. With some classes
however, this will not be possible. the books are totally
necessary. You will need to decide which classes these are.

another tip:

get all your homework done and also, clean up the apartment
before you do LSD.
you don't want that kind of stress harshing your buzz.

sitting in the front greatly improved my attention and
grades.

Go to the library when you have to, just do it, get it over
with, and put in the time. There is plenty of time for sex
and whatever, just get your shit done FIRST.

Hmmm, just remember you need time away from the books, so
why not spend it at the board! :]

Well, my only suggestion is to pay attention and take decent
notes. And as much as lectures are boring, they do however
involve any reading material that you might of been to lazy
to read the night before. :]

go to classes, study, do homework. it's why you're there, so
focus on that. what you do now is paving the way for your
future. remember to have fun in moderation so you don't burn
out.
