To do's and Not to do's

College is for learning. Expanding minds. Exploring. College means lots of reading. Reading and reflecting. Reflecting on what you're learning and what you're thinking. College doesn't give busy work. To spend time is to get something out of it. To grow. To get confused. To not understand. To figure out. To understand. To ask questions and to answer them. To meet new people. Not to judge. To be uncomfortable and take academic risks. To grow older. College is the best time of our lives. When we surprise ourselves. Find out more about who we are. Find new interests. Pursue old ones.

It is not a time to waste the $44,000 on saturating oneself in alcohol. It is not a time to eat unhealthy. It is not a time to rebel against all morals that life has taught you. It is not a time to give in to dangerous temptations. To throw away everything you have worked for up until now. To pollute your mind. To be rude or obnoxious. To be scared of failing. To avoid trying something new out of fear.
