Growing Up Sucks…

I realized the other day that freshman year for me is almost over. It was a moment that seemed to blow my mind. Think back to the start of your college career. Think back to your first semester it was a while ago, but it seemed like the blink of an eye. Don't get me wrong growing up is cool with the ability to drink, smoke, make your own decisions, and have complete freedom from any authoritative figures, but I scared of having that freedom. I don't ever want to pay the bills, or have a 9-5 desk job. These are consequences of having unlimited freedom. This just supports the reason that college is the best time of one's life. You have that freedom, where you are basically allowed to do whatever the hell you want when you want to. There's no have-to's or need-to's. Even if you live in the dorms and never go out, there's nobody to tell you that you need to do laundry by a certain time, or that you have to make your bed, or you have to get up and eat breakfast. ONCE a semester Resident Advisors, or RA's, will pass and will make you clean your room if it's a complete shit-show, but then again it's ONCE a semester. That's like your parents or whoever you lived with as a kid telling you that you need to clean your room once in March and Once in October; What a joke! Imagine if you treated the real world like you did college. Unlike college where you skip a class and at most you lose attendance, the real world will slap you with a salary loss or even the loss of your job. If you got kicked out of college for missing classes I guarantee that people might not cut class so much, or at all for that matter. If you went out Tuesday night in college and got smashed and you went to class the next day your professor might not notice, especially if it was a lecture, but if you went and got drunk before work the next day you could be in some deep trouble. You definitely DO NOT need future employers getting information from references that you frequently show up to work drunk. All I'm trying to say is that growing up is the worst thing to happen to anyone in their lifetime. Love college life while you still can!!!
