1. Studying Facebook harder than your textbook. Ever heard of Self Control (the app and/or the personal skill)? Use it.
2. Hopping on the bus/train/plane home to cuddle with your dog until you forget that exams exist. Your mom’s cooking may be sweet, but your report card over the summer will be pretty bitter.
3. Finally deciding to watch “Game of Thrones.” Tackle the first two seasons in a caffeine-induced daze. Spoiler alert: you’ll sleep through Orgo and oops, there goes pre-med.
4. Trying all those drugs your friend can’t stop raving about post-Fling.
5. Breaking up with your boyfriend/girlfriend/significant other. Save your tears for late-night cramming.
6. In a moment of defiance, leaving Van Pelt to finally explore what Philadelphia has to offer beyond 41st Street. Two a.m. on a Tuesday is not the time for a newfound sense of “adventure.”
7. Dirty rushing Penn ’17-ers. Just take writing seminar with ‘em if you really want to get to know them later.
8. Drunk dialing your TA. He/She probably won’t give you an A if you beg for the answers the night before. If it’s a booty call though…
9. Finally starting to read the book. It’s too late, kiddo—try the internet instead. If there aren’t SparkNotes, paying for the “BookRag” might be worth it?
10. Deciding, in a panic, to wing it. Unless that class has an elusive .4 or lower difficulty rating on Penn Course Review, it. won’t. work.
