38. You will eat anything that is free.
39. New additions to food groups: pitapit, pizza pizza, and manchu wok.
40. Stealing from the dining hall will become second nature.
41. ATM's are the devils advocate. ATM = another Twenty Missing.
42. Keys have never been so important, yet you seem to lose them or lock yourself out of the room even more.
43. Duct tape heals all wounds.
44. If they say you can't have it in your dorm, they are just kidding.
45. You will come to hate hallways/elevators with a passion. (STAIRS ARE THE DEVIL)
46. Those ugly cinderblocks are not sound proof.
47. Pictures, posters, emails or anything else to cover the ugly cell we live in will be transformed into wallpaper.
48. Everyone is only nice for the first week. After that, no matter how nice you are, some people just won't smile back. Get used to it.
49. You are never alone!
50. You realize college is the ideal lifestyle, except for those pesky classes

Its all soooo true!!!

alot of that is disturbingly true. i dont care what anyone says or things, the student life is ****ing great and having people throw nice big loans at u makes it even more enjoyable. were discussing student life in the union today (where else) and it was a unnanimous decision that uni is great minus the whole hjaving to work thing
