I'm originally from Lexington, Ky., and having written for iHigh over the summer as an intern, I suppose it won't hurt me TOO badly to write something that's not a poetry explication. Well, now that we all have a vague idea as to who I am, I guess I can tell everyone a little bit about my life 2000 miles from home. If you get the chance to talk for two hours after class to your professor, take advantage of it. I've learned all kinds of things this way, things that will probably stick with me a lot longer than the things I picked up in lecture. Never turn down food.
Food is our friend.
Food is also, it turns out, expensive. EAT all the food that comes your way. This should probably be lessons 1-50. Only by carefully cramming everything into my little life did I pull off 18 hours of credits with a decent GPA last semester. By carefully not planning time to take care of my work this semester, I am succeeding in sending said GPA down the toilet.
