If you could do college again…

by Lynn on February 8, 2013

Looking at colleges is like looking at an empty pizza box.
You wish you could start all over again, without the anchovies.

If I could do college again, I’d major in something I REALLY loved.
Like college men. Bwah ha ha ha ha. Just kidding.

And no, my college roommate isn’t allowed to comment.
You know who you are.

college

I would take the astronomy class I was afraid to take.
I want to look through the telescope at the stars, even if it involves math.

My college roommate IS allowed to comment about my performance in statistics.
Oh, no. Scratch that. She’s not allowed to comment on my classroom attendance. At all.

I would schedule more lunch dates with friends.
ESPECIALLY if those lunch dates were with college men.

Let me make it perfectly clear that my roommate may not comment on this topic.

I would spend more time in the library, reading books that interested me. Just because.
Sociology. Art History. Human Sexuality. Oops, did I say that?
Mom and Dad, please stop reading this post. I love you.

My college roommate is absolutely forbidden to comment about the steamy novels on my bookshelf.

And finally, if I were to do college again, I’d take a drawing course.
Especially if male nudes were involved. My interest in this topic is strictly artistic.
If you are my college roommate, please refrain from talking about the pictures on my dorm wall.

I was such a dufus in college. Ridiculous. Miraculously my former roommates are still friends with me. They’re happy to see I’ve learned to wear less makeup and go to bed before the sun comes up :)

Now I want to look up one of my old college roommates. Better yet I’d like to look up my goofy friend who would come into my room at 3am when I was asleep and watch “Blazing Saddles”. Those visits were almost as educational as some of my classes. Knowing Mongo’s love of candy has been more useful to me than anything I learned in Economics 101.

I’d do a few things differently if I could go back, too :)

Those buildings are breathtakingly beautiful. What a lovely place to live for eight months of the year!

As your college roommate, let me just say there is nothing I would do differently about college. except have roomed with you for ALL of my time there, vs. just part.

If I could, I would still be in college….

Relive college? I don’t think so. It wore me out too much the first time!

I majored in Special Education and it has served me well in that I adopted a special needs child. I only spent a year actually working in a school district. However, I really wanted to major in fine art and creative writing. My parents declared those to be irrelevant to having a career and therefore would not pay for college. When my oldest son wanted to major in fine art, I encouraged him to no end! He did and will graduate in May, having scored a job with the largest advertising firm in Los Angeles, CA. Yea!
P.S. I’ll be being your room mate was a blast.
