I first began to wonder what I was doing on a college campus when my parents drove off leaving me standing pitifully in a parking lot I decided I wanted nothing more than to find my way safely to my dorm room It seemed that everyone on campus was watching me My plan was to keep my ears open and my mouth shut and I hoped no one would notice I was a freshman

2 The next morning I found my first class and marched in Once I was in the room however another problem awaited me Where to sit After much hesitation I chose a seat in the first row and to the side
3 ldquoWelcome to Biology 1011rdquo the professor began Oh God I had thought it was a literature class A cold sweat broke out on the back of my neck I groped for my schedule and checked the room number I was in the right room but the wrong building
4 So now what 2 Get up and leave in the middle of the lecture Wouldnrsquot the professor be angry I knew everyone would stare Forget it3 I settled into my chair and tried to look as serious as a biology major might be

5 After class I felt a little hungry and I hurried to the cafeteria I piled my tray with sandwiches and was heading for the seat when I accidentally stepped in a large puddle of ketchup My food tray tipped and I lost my balance As my rear end met the floor I saw my entire life pass before my eyes it ended with my first day of college classes
6 In the seconds after my fall I thought how nice it would be if no one had noticed But as all the students in the cafeteria came to their feet cheering and clapping I knew they had not only noticed they were determined that I would never forget it

7 For the next three days I dined alone on nothing more than shame and some junk food from a machine placed outside my room On the fourth day I thought I needed some real food badly Perhaps three days was long enough for the campus population4 to have forgotten me So off to the cafeteria I went
8 I made my way through the food line and tiptoed to a table Suddenly I heard a crash that sounded familiar I looked up to find that another poor soul5
had met the same fate as I had My heart went out to him as people began to cheer and clap as they had for me6 He got up hands held high above his head in a victory clasp grinning from ear to ear7 I expected him to slip out of the cafeteria as I had but instead he turned around and began preparing8 another tray And thatrsquos when I realized I had been taking myself far too seriously

10 Once I realized that I had no onersquos expectations to live up to but my own I relaxed I began to view college as a wonderful experiment I dressed a little differently I discovered a taste for jazz and I decided I liked going barefoot
11 I gave up trying to act my way through college and began not acting at all College I decided was probably the only time I would be completely forgiven for any mistakes (including stepping in puddles of ketchup and dropping food trays) So I used the opportunity to make all the ones I thought Irsquod ever make

I first began to wonder what I was doing on a college campus when my parents drove off leaving me standing pitifully in a parking lot I decided I wanted nothing more than to find my way safely to my dorm room It seemed that everyone on campus was watching me My plan was to keep my ears open and my mouth shut and I hoped no one would notice I was a freshman

2 The next morning I found my first class and marched in Once I was in the room however another problem awaited me Where to sit After much hesitation I chose a seat in the first row and to the side
3 ldquoWelcome to Biology 1011rdquo the professor began Oh God I had thought it was a literature class A cold sweat broke out on the back of my neck I groped for my schedule and checked the room number I was in the right room but the wrong building

5 After class I felt a little hungry and I hurried to the cafeteria I piled my tray with sandwiches and was heading for the seat when I accidentally stepped in a large puddle of ketchup My food tray tipped and I lost my balance As my rear end met the floor I saw my entire life pass before my eyes it ended with my first day of college classes
6 In the seconds after my fall I thought how nice it would be if no one had noticed But as all the students in the cafeteria came to their feet cheering and clapping I knew they had not only noticed they were determined that I would never forget it

7 For the next three days I dined alone on nothing more than shame and some junk food from a machine placed outside my room On the fourth day I thought I needed some real food badly Perhaps three days was long enough for the campus population4 to have forgotten me So off to the cafeteria I went
8 I made my way through the food line and tiptoed to a table Suddenly I heard a crash that sounded familiar I looked up to find that another poor soul5
had met the same fate as I had My heart went out to him as people began to cheer and clap as they had for me6 He got up hands held high above his head in a victory clasp grinning from ear to ear7 I expected him to slip out of the cafeteria as I had but instead he turned around and began preparing8 another tray And thatrsquos when I realized I had been taking myself far too seriously

11 I gave up trying to act my way through college and began not acting at all College I decided was probably the only time I would be completely forgiven for any mistakes (including stepping in puddles of ketchup and dropping food trays) So I used the opportunity to make all the ones I thought Irsquod ever make

8 I made my way through the food line and tiptoed to a table Suddenly I heard a crash that sounded familiar I looked up to find that another poor soul5
had met the same fate as I had My heart went out to him as people began to cheer and clap as they had for me6 He got up hands held high above his head in a victory clasp grinning from ear to ear7 I expected him to slip out of the cafeteria as I had but instead he turned around and began preparing8 another tray And thatrsquos when I realized I had been taking myself far too seriously

5 After class I felt a little hungry and I hurried to the cafeteria I piled my tray with sandwiches and was heading for the seat when I accidentally stepped in a large puddle of ketchup My food tray tipped and I lost my balance As my rear end met the floor I saw my entire life pass before my eyes it ended with my first day of college classes
6 In the seconds after my fall I thought how nice it would be if no one had noticed But as all the students in the cafeteria came to their feet cheering and clapping I knew they had not only noticed they were determined that I would never forget it

7 For the next three days I dined alone on nothing more than shame and some junk food from a machine placed outside my room On the fourth day I thought I needed some real food badly Perhaps three days was long enough for the campus population4 to have forgotten me So off to the cafeteria I went
8 I made my way through the food line and tiptoed to a table Suddenly I heard a crash that sounded familiar I looked up to find that another poor soul5
had met the same fate as I had My heart went out to him as people began to cheer and clap as they had for me6 He got up hands held high above his head in a victory clasp grinning from ear to ear7 I expected him to slip out of the cafeteria as I had but instead he turned around and began preparing8 another tray And thatrsquos when I realized I had been taking myself far too seriously

I first began to wonder what I was doing on a college campus when my parents drove off leaving me standing pitifully in a parking lot I decided I wanted nothing more than to find my way safely to my dorm room It seemed that everyone on campus was watching me My plan was to keep my ears open and my mouth shut and I hoped no one would notice I was a freshman

2 The next morning I found my first class and marched in Once I was in the room however another problem awaited me Where to sit After much hesitation I chose a seat in the first row and to the side
3 ldquoWelcome to Biology 1011rdquo the professor began Oh God I had thought it was a literature class A cold sweat broke out on the back of my neck I groped for my schedule and checked the room number I was in the right room but the wrong building

5 After class I felt a little hungry and I hurried to the cafeteria I piled my tray with sandwiches and was heading for the seat when I accidentally stepped in a large puddle of ketchup My food tray tipped and I lost my balance As my rear end met the floor I saw my entire life pass before my eyes it ended with my first day of college classes
6 In the seconds after my fall I thought how nice it would be if no one had noticed But as all the students in the cafeteria came to their feet cheering and clapping I knew they had not only noticed they were determined that I would never forget it

7 For the next three days I dined alone on nothing more than shame and some junk food from a machine placed outside my room On the fourth day I thought I needed some real food badly Perhaps three days was long enough for the campus population4 to have forgotten me So off to the cafeteria I went
8 I made my way through the food line and tiptoed to a table Suddenly I heard a crash that sounded familiar I looked up to find that another poor soul5
had met the same fate as I had My heart went out to him as people began to cheer and clap as they had for me6 He got up hands held high above his head in a victory clasp grinning from ear to ear7 I expected him to slip out of the cafeteria as I had but instead he turned around and began preparing8 another tray And thatrsquos when I realized I had been taking myself far too seriously

11 I gave up trying to act my way through college and began not acting at all College I decided was probably the only time I would be completely forgiven for any mistakes (including stepping in puddles of ketchup and dropping food trays) So I used the opportunity to make all the ones I thought Irsquod ever make

I first began to wonder what I was doing on a college campus when my parents drove off leaving me standing pitifully in a parking lot I decided I wanted nothing more than to find my way safely to my dorm room It seemed that everyone on campus was watching me My plan was to keep my ears open and my mouth shut and I hoped no one would notice I was a freshman

2 The next morning I found my first class and marched in Once I was in the room however another problem awaited me Where to sit After much hesitation I chose a seat in the first row and to the side
3 ldquoWelcome to Biology 1011rdquo the professor began Oh God I had thought it was a literature class A cold sweat broke out on the back of my neck I groped for my schedule and checked the room number I was in the right room but the wrong building
4 So now what 2 Get up and leave in the middle of the lecture Wouldnrsquot the professor be angry I knew everyone would stare Forget it3 I settled into my chair and tried to look as serious as a biology major might be

5 After class I felt a little hungry and I hurried to the cafeteria I piled my tray with sandwiches and was heading for the seat when I accidentally stepped in a large puddle of ketchup My food tray tipped and I lost my balance As my rear end met the floor I saw my entire life pass before my eyes it ended with my first day of college classes
6 In the seconds after my fall I thought how nice it would be if no one had noticed But as all the students in the cafeteria came to their feet cheering and clapping I knew they had not only noticed they were determined that I would never forget it

7 For the next three days I dined alone on nothing more than shame and some junk food from a machine placed outside my room On the fourth day I thought I needed some real food badly Perhaps three days was long enough for the campus population4 to have forgotten me So off to the cafeteria I went
8 I made my way through the food line and tiptoed to a table Suddenly I heard a crash that sounded familiar I looked up to find that another poor soul5
had met the same fate as I had My heart went out to him as people began to cheer and clap as they had for me6 He got up hands held high above his head in a victory clasp grinning from ear to ear7 I expected him to slip out of the cafeteria as I had but instead he turned around and began preparing8 another tray And thatrsquos when I realized I had been taking myself far too seriously

11 I gave up trying to act my way through college and began not acting at all College I decided was probably the only time I would be completely forgiven for any mistakes (including stepping in puddles of ketchup and dropping food trays) So I used the opportunity to make all the ones I thought Irsquod ever make

7 For the next three days I dined alone on nothing more than shame and some junk food from a machine placed outside my room On the fourth day I thought I needed some real food badly Perhaps three days was long enough for the campus population4 to have forgotten me So off to the cafeteria I went
8 I made my way through the food line and tiptoed to a table Suddenly I heard a crash that sounded familiar I looked up to find that another poor soul5
had met the same fate as I had My heart went out to him as people began to cheer and clap as they had for me6 He got up hands held high above his head in a victory clasp grinning from ear to ear7 I expected him to slip out of the cafeteria as I had but instead he turned around and began preparing8 another tray And thatrsquos when I realized I had been taking myself far too seriously

had met the same fate as I had My heart went out to him as people began to cheer and clap as they had for me6 He got up hands held high above his head in a victory clasp grinning from ear to ear7 I expected him to slip out of the cafeteria as I had but instead he turned around and began preparing8 another tray And thatrsquos when I realized I had been taking myself far too seriously

had met the same fate as I had My heart went out to him as people began to cheer and clap as they had for me6 He got up hands held high above his head in a victory clasp grinning from ear to ear7 I expected him to slip out of the cafeteria as I had but instead he turned around and began preparing8 another tray And thatrsquos when I realized I had been taking myself far too seriously

6 In the seconds after my fall I thought how nice it would be if no one had noticed But as all the students in the cafeteria came to their feet cheering and clapping I knew they had not only noticed they were determined that I would never forget it

7 For the next three days I dined alone on nothing more than shame and some junk food from a machine placed outside my room On the fourth day I thought I needed some real food badly Perhaps three days was long enough for the campus population4 to have forgotten me So off to the cafeteria I went
8 I made my way through the food line and tiptoed to a table Suddenly I heard a crash that sounded familiar I looked up to find that another poor soul5
had met the same fate as I had My heart went out to him as people began to cheer and clap as they had for me6 He got up hands held high above his head in a victory clasp grinning from ear to ear7 I expected him to slip out of the cafeteria as I had but instead he turned around and began preparing8 another tray And thatrsquos when I realized I had been taking myself far too seriously

11 I gave up trying to act my way through college and began not acting at all College I decided was probably the only time I would be completely forgiven for any mistakes (including stepping in puddles of ketchup and dropping food trays) So I used the opportunity to make all the ones I thought Irsquod ever make

had met the same fate as I had My heart went out to him as people began to cheer and clap as they had for me6 He got up hands held high above his head in a victory clasp grinning from ear to ear7 I expected him to slip out of the cafeteria as I had but instead he turned around and began preparing8 another tray And thatrsquos when I realized I had been taking myself far too seriously

8 I made my way through the food line and tiptoed to a table Suddenly I heard a crash that sounded familiar I looked up to find that another poor soul5
had met the same fate as I had My heart went out to him as people began to cheer and clap as they had for me6 He got up hands held high above his head in a victory clasp grinning from ear to ear7 I expected him to slip out of the cafeteria as I had but instead he turned around and began preparing8 another tray And thatrsquos when I realized I had been taking myself far too seriously
