Woooh man what a long day.... I'm takeing all my classes on tuesday and thursday, still not sure if that was a good or bad idea. To late now so here's the run down of my day. (1-7:30)
Gov't I was late to but thats alright cause it was all kinds of boring.
I had a lot of fun in psychology.
Math class, I think I pissed off my teacher. I don't know what it was, I think it was just the way he pronounced certain words but I could not get the image of one of my old co-workers "chinaman" impression (one of the funniest things I've ever seen) out of my head. So the entire time he was lecturing I sat there desperately trying to not break out in laughter. I don't think he appreciated it very much.
English was alot like high school, sat in the back and joked around.  need to work on that 
Oh and almost forgot, nah not UofH. I'm taking my basics at Cy-fair college then transfering for my degree. (Wayyy cheaper and it's literally like 2 min from my house) Although I'm starting to think I'll miss out on the whole "going off to college". So I'm contemplating transferring to a university next semester or next year.

You can be drunk and broke all the time later on in life. Stay at the place you're at as long as you can (I mean while getting school work done, not staying by failing).

Ugh core req's! I'm so glad I went to a private college and got to skip those - we dove straight into Calc 1-4, physics, music and CS classes my freshman year. Almost makes the debt worth it. 
Take your courses seriously, but don't break down if you don't do so well at first. I got on academic warning by failing six out of 12 courses throughout the year 2003 (freshman and soph semesters). It took switching my major, summer courses at local colleges and overloading a few terms to make it up, but I still graduated on time as the Class '06. College had its ups and downs but I don't for a moment regret any of the experiences throughout my years.
I had legacy with a certain fraternity at my college (father went there) but never rushed. All of my friends were rather surprised when I informed them of this fact ... but truth be told, I was having enough fun in school as it were and had made many close friends my freshman year. I think NECEG knows I fall apart in crowds anyway, having so many people in close proximity all the time would bother me.
I only wish I had discovered the APO co-ed community service fraternity earlier on. By the time I rushed my senior year I was so busy with school and work that I ended up not getting in.  It was a fun time doing the service though, reminded me of my high-school years. The same goes for all sorts of other "groups" like the campus ministry and Mac users groups, I wholeheartedly regret not having participated enough when I was able.

If you transfer to Texas State I will definitely hook you up with the party scene.

Meh, I'm drunk pretty often (less now by choice since Albany just sucks) and still broke and not in college.
The thing is, being drunk all the time can and for many does interfere with grades.

Since when? My freshman year was the best two years of my life. 
...although somewhat fuzzy.

How aren't you expelled when you fail 6 of 12 classes????  Yeah, I don't know about other schools, but if you fail most of your classes in a semester at mine, you're out. Regardless of academic probation or the below 2.0 line. You'll definitely determine your difficult classes from your blow-off classes by the first day of class. If you're discussing the syllabus and introductions, it's a fun course. Well, at least that's my general rule of thumb. Humanities are the best, you play stupid name games and crap. I still remember my intro English course, we did ice-breakers for the first three classes, what a joke!

Just thought about the question I had. I bet you were at a school where you could retake the course and it would substitute the grade...
I still can't believe some schools allow this and some don't. Doesn't make any sense. Plus I'm jealous b/c I never had such an option.
