The Truth about University

University pamphlets are the fakest impression of university. You know you're only in university when:

you know more than your TA. 

people don't tend to smile. Especially during the week before exams. 

exams = brain hemorrhaging + lobotomy

you feel like you haven't slept for 2 days. Then you realize you really haven't slept for 2 days.

your concept of a relaxing week is when you only have to go to class and do a million readings. 

during the first week of classes, you spend more time lining up for books/parking permits/government loans/food/computer accounts than actually in class.

class change means mass exodus, armpits,  and bulldozing through mosh pit-like crowds. Except on Fridays.

you suspect your prof is speaking Korean. Or Swahili. 

you always have to go online to look at lecture notes after class because your prof gives you about 15 seconds to copy a full PowerPoint slide. 

you classrooms are always at the end of some hallway in the most darkened and mysterious part of the campus.

you're exhausted after one 50-minute lecture. Then you realize you just started the day. 

you think that your money is being used to fill a bottomless pit in Arizona.

someone from your high school with whom you haven't shared more than three words in the past four years suddenly says hi to you in the hallway. Twice.
