Things About College that Bother Me:

- Feeling guilty about stealing time to read an Agatha Christie
- When "my" shower is busy in the mornings
- Falling asleep in the middle of really interesting lectures and then not being able to read your notes afterwards
- Gaining weight
- People who go to bed super early
- People who don't go to bed at all
- People who never study and just walk around drunk all the time
- Writing on deadline and turning out not-so-great work
- People who stress

Things About College that Do Not Bother Me:

- Barely sleeping
- Not-that-great food
- Studying all the time
- Having classes from 9 until 4
- Walking EVERYWHERE
- Late-night "pretending to do work" in the lounge
- Shifting your schedule about 3 hours later each night than you're used to (things really just get going at 11 or 12... )

Oh, and did I mention today that I love my roommate? I didn't? Well, now I did. 

Goodnight. It's bedtime. :)

My guess is that the "barely sleeping" and the "falling asleep during interesting lectures" are somehow correlated ;-). . . I don't know, maybe I am wrong. . . But, I did notice that the "falling asleep" part didn't bother you, just the "not being able to read your notes afterwards" part. :-) Aah, college life!

"Writing on deadline and turning out not-so-great work."

It was a depressing thought when someone told me that every single sermon could be significantly better, meaning that if more time were invested in it, or if the deadline were later, it could always be significantly improved. It is absolutely true, but as far as my experience goes, Sunday always come back again within the week.

And did you mention the mystic art of interpreting drool marks off your notes, or deciphering the pen marks that you thought were letters when you were writing, but look more like Martian landscapes?
