Instead, I present you with:
Questions from the Public + Things I Thought Were Important
Part 1
- Things College Kids Say:
- "Have you studied for this test?" "Psh, no."
- "Is it free?"
- "Want to go to Wal-Mart?"
- "Huddle House at 3am is the best!"
- "Wait, there's homework for today?"
- Things Professors Say:
- "I go, "No!" and I show them my Chacos." ~ Dr. Bushhaus, referring to trying to convince people to save endangered bats.
- "And then it peed on the side of the road and was like, "Screw you!" ~ Dr. Bushhaus, while flipping off the entire class to demonstrate a sassy Red Wolf's reaction to almost being hit by her car.
- "Come near me and you die." ~ Dr. Smartt, threatening a wasp
- "You need to color the butt-crack of the heart." Dr. Greenwood, referring to a fern gametophyte's archegonia.
- "No, I'm Senora. I lost my youth getting my PhD." ~ Dra. Morin, in response to being called Senorita.
- Things overheard in school:
- "I was psych tested. Not for depression, but homicidal tendencies!" (Maybe not something to brag about in the cafeteria, dear.)
- "Oh my gosh! I got to castrate a pig today!" (Perks of a redneck school, y'all.)
- College Parties, what are they like?
- Let's put it this way, I drove past a frat party the night after Halloween and watched a 6' tall Captain Underpants run across the street, away from the frat house.
- Freshman 15 - is it real?
- Yes, if you don't eat healthy and don't take care of yourself. But I actually have ended up losing weight due to stress, working out, eating healthy, and a schedule that has me walking several miles a day.
- Funniest thing that's happened to me so far:
- I was using my phone to write an email to a professor, inquiring about a travel-study trip to Ecuador. Instead of putting, "I am interested", my phone autocorrected the message to, "I am undressed". That could have been BAD, y'all.
- Homeschoolers adjusting to "real school"
- Adjusting? I'm too busy with classes and my social life to worry about adjusting.
