Yeah. That's basically it.
Never again will I take 17 credit hours and do 15 hours of work study per week. I have learned my lesson.
Recently, a select few seniors from Covenant have been giving their senior testimonies in chapel. At least a few of them have composed lists of "Things that they have learned..." because they are soon to be the wise, all-knowing graduates and feel the need to pass on their wisdom to us lowly underclassmen. In this spirit, I thought I would share with you some things that I have learned / bits of wisdom (besides the above)... in no particular order:
- There are lots of splendid people here. Spend time with them.
- "Chicken Fried" is THE ideal country song. It's right up there with "Backwards" by Rascal Flatts.
- Hardly anyone can figure out all of the intricacies of Finnegan's Wake, so don't feel so bad because you can't.
- Putting random facts in the bathroom stalls is a great plan. So far I have learned that Isaac Asimov is the only author to have a book in every section of the Dewey Decimal System. This is going to be great for Jeopardy! this summer.
- Be nice to your roommate. Sometimes they bite.
- D.H. Lawrence looks eerily like my history teacher from high school.
- Get over your fear of singing by yourself. It's okay.
- Do not leave your cell phone charging on your desk during open dorm hours. Someone could come in and put it in your vent. ;)
- Have deep conversations. They mean a lot.
