Five Things you learned in college that they never taught you in orientation.<\/strong><\/p>\n

College orientation can be exciting. You get a jist of how college life will be (a crash course if you will)\u2026Thats why we decided to crank out a list dedicated to what they will not tell you.<\/p>\n

5) Freshman 15<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

What they tell you<\/strong><\/p>\n

The campus cafeteria can be found at the end of Emerson Hall. We keep a large variety of assorted foods and the vending machines are open 24 hours.<\/p>\n

What they should have told you<\/strong><\/p>\n

In 3 months you will be a fat ass<\/a>. Lets face it, the cafeteria will never be open when you need it. This resorts in Hot Pockets and Red Bull from the vending machines while you’re pulling all nighters trying to cram. That combined with eating pizza and drinking beer every other night will soon leave you looking like Jared (before he found Subway).<\/p>\n

4) Certain bars have college night<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

What they tell you<\/strong><\/p>\n

At times you can take advantage of coupons that we hand out to students. These coupons are good for discounts in various restaurant establishments across town.<\/p>\n

What they should have told you<\/strong><\/p>\n

Once you find out which bars offer college night, you’ll soon become a regular. This leads to you spending time at bars (when you should be studying) because you think you’re saving money. Eating hotwings and slamming 2 dollar mixers lead to\u2026.(see #5)<\/p>\n

3) You will live off of Top Ramen at least once<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

What they tell you<\/strong><\/p>\n

Financial aid forms can be found at the administration office. If you have any questions, feel free to ask a counselor.<\/p>\n

What they should have told you<\/strong><\/p>\n

You’re in college, prepare to be broke. If you can’t afford a George Foreman Grill and a bunch of frozen chicken breasts, we suggest you head to Costco and buy Top Ramen in bulk.<\/p>\n

2) STD’s<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

What they tell you<\/strong><\/p>\n

Nothing.<\/p>\n

What they should have told you<\/strong><\/p>\n

1 in 4 people on campus has an STD (that is an actual stat taken from SDSU). Even if you do wear a condom, there is a good chance you will catch crabs. You can save a lot of money if you skip the prescription shampoo, and just shave your pubes.<\/p>\n

1) WoW + Counterstrike = F<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

What they tell you<\/strong><\/p>\n

It is important to manage your time wisely. Making and maintaining a class schedule is your responsibilty. Taking too many credits at once can become overwhelming.<\/p>\n

What they should have told you<\/strong><\/p>\n

Do not install World of Warcraft on your computer. Do not install Counterstrike on your computer. You will not be able to function in your 8am class if you’re bunny hopping and head shotting through CS servers all night. We understand you think that you will be able to go on a raid at 9pm and still get a good night sleep before your Trig class. The truth is: your preist will keep going link dead before he can give you ‘prayer of fortitude’. The Druid who was supposed to cast resist got impatient and logged off. By the time you found another druid, called in another preist with a decent connect, and finished your raid – it was 3am. We’ll see you at starbucks.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
