my first weekend at college a kid on my floor almost died from drinking, the ambulance showed up a couple more times the first month…
The OP sounds like he won’t be at college for long, and if he does make it through, he’ll end up with some shit prize-in-a-cereal-box type degree, complain about how the economy sucks and no one will hire him when he gets out. And the day that he DOES get a job, he’ll show up everyday with the mentality of doing the absolute minimum to keep from getting fired, then he’ll get fired, say that the boss was a biased asshole and end up working at a pac sun clothing store, make it to a managing position and pull $28k a year.
This mentality plagues a majority of our college students. Basically everything that was “cool” was based on drinking…uh, I dare you to fucking grow up? I dare you. You thought it was awesome to see a guy projectile vomit into an elevator? wow dude, wow…

They should offer lower-division classes on how to choose the right rehab center for guys like the OP.

I’m 18 dude chill the fuck out lol. All my classes are early in the day, I do my homework and study in the afternoon, and then I go party at night. Yeah that shit is cool to me, I’m not gonna claim to be mature at all. I’ll wait till I’m 25 before i even start pretending
see what massive amounts of cocaine, booze and indiscriminate pussy from sunup to sundown eight days a week during his seven year college career does to a man?

Sounds like at 25 you’ll be vaguely considering going back to school to finish your degree during one of your rare lucid moments. Probably right around the same time you puke your gall bladder into a total stranger’s toilet and tell yourself for the thousandth time that you’ll never drink like that again.

Be careful, you’re playing with fire. You’ll buy your own problems, be ready to deal with them when you decide to start pretending 7 years from now.
I got to agree with carbiduis on some points. Enray it’s fine to party a lot in college, but make sure you pick a major that you like AND that has a job market out there. The economy sucks right now and that is not changing anytime soon. Four years will go more quickly than you think, you want to be able to make at least 40k right out of college and you should not still be working at Target. Remember, a bachelor’s these days doesn’t mean shit. You have to work hard, play hard.
I’m pretty sure he’ll be able to do it like what he said for the first year or two. I would say it’s even healthy to go out and party a little bit and mingle. You learn life-skills while having a lot of fun at the same time doing that.
To the OP, be careful you don’t take it too far. It really can be a slippery slope if you don’t care to watch where you’re stepping. I’ve seen that happen to some friends of mine, and when I saw them after they dropped college, they regretted it a lot except for one.

You may be able to fuck around like that in some bullshit major, but I wouldn’t have been able to even get into a grad school going through college like that…so he has a point. Yeah, if you really don’t have any goals and really don’t plan on making any more after graduation than the average person, then hey, spend every single night partying and good luck.
Just don’t cry about how hard it is to find a decent job in 4 or 5 years.

Agreed. I know way too many people who acted just like that in college who are now completely unemployed.
This is the wrong economic environment for anyone to support that mind set. You don’t get to do any remakes when it comes to your time in college…and yes, employers do look at college GPA and grad schools definitely look at how you did each semester.
I was younger than 18 when I started college so age isn’t an excuse.

LOL. I’m saying enjoy college…but I don’t know too many people who really acted like the op all year long who even graduated. As a freshmen, you are setting the tone for the rest of your time there by how you act that first semester. College isn’t the real world. That is why so many “super seniors” going on ten years are afraid to graduate…because outside, they aren’t the most popular life of the party.
I did way more than just study in college. I enjoyed the hell out of it. It was quite possibly the most insane, interesting, and just fucking fun time of my life…but I knew what I was there for and it wasn’t just for fucking.
I just never got into the drunk all night party scene…because I had shit to do.

Yep.
I started county college my first year and took the second year off. Paid for it by working.
Oh, I drank, just not all night every night (that’s what highschool was for… Ba da BIM!)
Went to real college and worked part time while rowing crew. Still partied a little, but getting up at 4:30 am to be on the water at 5, rowing/running/lifting and back in biology class at 8 kind of squashes “all night every night”.

But then you are just that weird old guy. :p[/quote]
Didnt realized that 21 was old…
X is right, say thank you, I did law at university (in the UK) and you have shit to do. There’s no reason to say you can’t party, but unless you’re exceptionally bright / have an exceptionally unchallenging course crawling into class hungover after an all night party every day is something you’ll look back on fondly… as you commute to your $400 a week job.

I don’t know that, for an English major, there was any other way for me to do it. [/quote]
Im a 2nd year business major at pretty damn good school and so far I have partied my ass off and kept my GPA up. I have to maintain a 3.8+ or switch my major. I am in a frat and live in the house and all of us get our shit done. To me it is just prioritizing. I don’t party all night before exams and I get my work done before I get shitty.
