Its that time of the year, and for some of you I am starting to feel very sorry. Its time to graduate. In a very short month many of you will be taking your leap from college-madness to adult-awfulness. I'm just kidding...but not completley. It will nice to not have to study anymore...but I think thats the only thing you are going to miss. I would gladly take 3 math tests than listen to an alarm go off for work. I can't even tell you the murderous thoughts that go through my head when I hear my alarm sound. Let's just say I start everyday thinking about somebody Im going to hurt or the next time I will be able to shut my eyes. Randomly I do think about quitting my job and post ad's on craiglist all day. Either way with graduation on the horizon it is time to MAKE A LIST of things you need to do before leaving your college town only to return for gameday. It's a sad thought, but its reality. So make the BEST of this last month. To make this easier on you I decided to formulate a list of things to do before graduating so that when you hit the road in a month or so you will know you did the right things. These do not have to be completed in any particular order, but they do need to be completed.
The Grad's Master List:
1.) Eat a great meal at your favorite college town eatery. Substitution: Eat your favorite late night.
2.) Throw a party. I would recommend making it a shit-kicker, but a solid pre-game will do. Either way the party needs to include draft beer. Throwing a party is an essential move before you pack your things. It leaves a great memory for those wanting to one day become you.
3.) Call a girl you hooked up with freshmen year. And I don't mean call them up for lunch. Call her up, meet up, make small talk, make necessary promises of commitment, and head for pound-town.
4.) Stop going to classes that do not matter. I'm not telling you to screw up your graduation date, just stop going to weightlifiting.
5.) At least one week leading up to graduation you need to drink for 7 days in a row. That doesn't mean aggressive drinking. But a sample schedule could be:
Sunday- Day Drinking/Grilling, Monday- Drinking, stop by a few bars. Tuesday- Day Drinking-Nap-Drinking games related to N64 such as Mario Kart, Wed- messed up, Thurs- Messed up, Friday-balls to the wall, Sat-messed up.
6.) Do something you always told yourself you would do before college ended. Everyone has their own dream so pursue your own. My was pursued, and I hope I never run into her again.
7.) Invite some random people to your graduation. Odds are they will not show up, but they will probably send you a gift. If they do show up you are looking at an akward situation for you and your family
8.) Over-Draft your bank account. If this doesnt happen you are not going at it hard enough
9.) Meet a girl, who is absolutley COMPLETLEY random, meaning you do not know who the hell she is. Do something crazy, be safe, rock n'roll.
10.) Freshmen night. Simple procedure; act like a freshmen, dress like a freshmen, drink like a freshmen, and hang out with freshmen. This might sound insane, but its hard to describe the emotion that will follow.
Have a great time, and welcome to college graduation.
