Lessons learned on Day 1 of college

1. Do not walk to a class on The Hill.  You will die.  Or at least feel like you are going to.  And when you finally get to class, even though you left with PLENTY of time to spare, you are almost late and extremely sweaty and smelly.
2. Do not wear grey or jeans before December.  It is too hot.  I started the day in jeans and a tank.  I was hot and sweaty.  I changed into shorts and a grey T. Then, not only was I hot and sweaty, but my shirt was a much darker shade of grey on my entire back than everywhere else.  Grey is the devil.  You cannot hide your sweat AT ALL! Avoid it at all costs.
3. If you find yourself on a street named after a flower or fruit, such as Magnolia, etc, TURN AROUND.  This is the.. how do I go about saying this in a politically correct manner? The.. area typically associated with.. drug dealers and shady back alleys and.... well, it's the ghetto.  So it is best to avoid the fruit&flower roads.
