cool it

hah! I went to the campus convenience store to get some gatorade, and all these kids were buying these crazy super-caffeinated energy drinks and starbucks double-shots.

mid-terms are in the house i guess.

makes me nostalgic for my own college life, back when i routinely pulled all-nighters trying to cram all the information back into my brain for some silly tests. and staying up all night sweating some paper.

Here in Ph.D. land, it's a little different. I find I'm actually kind of done with my work before bed time. And I know enough to steadily work throughout the whole semester to keep up, so I won't have to cram. I guess it just comes with age, huh?

But, it's strange, 2 of my homeboys from college just started getting in touch with me again. Makes me wanna relive those times. Staying up all night watching Simpsons tapes and getting so so high. Spending all my money on booze so girls would come over to our place. Sweatin dinner plans each and every day, trying to make it to the convenience store to buy a sandwhich, my only meal of the day, before they shut down at 11PM. Man oh man. I seem to remember only the good times. Anyone out there remember some of the really really bad times? Lemme hear em.
