Loved it.

It was a cornucopia of new and interesting vaginas.
Studies have shown the ass crack of the average Prince fan to be abnormally large. This explains the ease and frequency of their panties bunching up in it.

omg I flipped out and became a social animal so much so that I was on probation by the end of the year lol

GREAT time of life, but I was so irresponsible and out of control. Staying up until 4-5am every night. It was almost IMPOSSIBLE to get my butt to morning class.

It was a blast. A real letdown came sophmore year when everyone around me got serious. wink

Yeah. It was basically the same for me. lol I think about about that time and think about how irritated my parents must have been at me. I look at 18/19 year olds in my classes (I'm back in school) and I just cringe...

Mine was kind of lackluster, since I lived at home. It wasn't until my sophomore year that things started to pop.

it was redefining. it was the first time in my life that i didn't live under the same roof with parents, so i finally had a chance to figure out who i was and how i preferred to live my life. i became a vegetarian and came out of the closet within the first two months of my freshman year. lol

I couldn't stand one of my roommates. She questioned everything I did as if I was an alien. She also talked about everyone like a dog....even people she considered to be her friend. I never considered a friend though. My classes were actually fun. Classes start off easy.....not too much stress.

i'm thinking i'm enjoying my fourth year far more than my first.
i'm that much closer to my degree, i feel more established and i think i enjoy that feeling more than the partying every day and night antics that constitutes the freshman year.

Oh. Not me. Mine started off way hard. I took 18 hours and they were mostly science and chemistry and labs. bawl

I hate labs! Once I was in organic chem. lab and those things last 3 hours...I did my experiment and I was supposed to filter something and one of the pieces of the apparatus was not hooked tightly and I watched my black crystalized A+ drain off onto the table and turn into an F.

Mine was a combination of all the above.

Stressful, but fun at the same time.

My first semester was the following:

Calculus I
Experience in Literature
Perceptions of Science
Chem I
Chem I lab

Chem really wasn't all that bad, but I'm more mathematically inclined than most. Now Organic Chem lab (Chem II), that was hell, but that came a year later.

Calculus I was a nightmare because it was hard to pick up. Then we had these "projects" to do every week where we'd divide into groups and meet to solve a number of related calc problems.
Long story short: after one of my group dropped out of the class in early November, the other guys just gave up on it and I had to do ALL the work myself. I confessed that to my professor nearing the end of the semester and along with my perfect attendance record, I managed an A (when my grade would have been a B-).

The only social life I had, other than spending a little time every now and then with my wonderful roommate hug who I'm still good friends with and love to death... was animé club where I could hang out with my fellow geeks/nerds at somewhat of a study break. Where we just watch 2 hours of animé every Wednesday night razz good times

And that's just my first semester wink
had 2 run away... pride was 2 strong. It started raining, baby, the birds were gone

I'm ashamed really. smile I managed to get into a very elite school, my parents were shelling out $$$$ to put me there, and I frittered it all away gaining 20 pounds eating pizza and ice cream, worming my way out of deadlines, writing stream-of-consciousness papers and constantly pleading for extensions.

Get this -- I got an M in French class (that's M for Missing because the teacher didn't know who I was because I only showed up to class about two times.) boxed My mom kept questioning me about it. "What's this "M" grade? Go get that M grade fixed!!!" lol Luckily I managed to ignore the situation until the M vanished from my record. woot!

I went shopping between classes or on the computer, I liked the lifestyle of being on my own more than studying in first year, cause though I liked what I studied, it was too hard and stressful. I was on probation by the end of the year, but improved in second year and it got better since.
