When I think of college (some years hence) I will think of many things, I'm sure. (Or, as sure as I can be when hypothesizing on a still sort of distant future.) I sort of want to list those things now, but I also sort of don't.
The album is the half-baked offspring of recycled ideas and hasty creation. The band toured for most of 2004 and 2005, writing and recording the new record whenever they could squeeze in studio time.
Suddenly, the whole school reeks. Not of rotting gyros nor unwashed freshman. Not of freshly manured Green grass nor second hand smoke.
No, it's the smell of ambitious seniors.
Ahoy, me maties! For those of ye landlubbers who didn't know, less than a fortnight ago, this past Monday was National Talk Like a Pirate Day, or TLAPD for short.
Oh, the joys of youth! When drinking was illegal. No AC in Hill. Free time. Ah, happy times. So, in honor of naive-ness, we present to you the 15 F-ups froshies should have done by now at Penn.
I Can Pee Clearly Now
I can pee clearly now the pain is gone.
I can pee, no obstacles in my way.
Gone are the itchy rashes that had me down.
It's gunna be a bright (bright)
Bright STD-free day.
Oh yes I can make it now the warts are gone.
All of the inflammation has disappeared.
Here is that dick cream I've been praying for.
It's gunna be a bright (bright)
Bright STD-free day.
Look all around there's nothing but pube hairs
Look straight ahead there's nothing but pube hairs.
I can pee clearly now the pain is gone.
I can pee, no obstacles in my way.
Oh, shit, my girlfriend has got herpes.
It ain't right (right)
Right no sex tonight.
It ain't right (right)
Right no sex tonight.

We used to laugh
at my
high school Spanish teacher
because
she was fat
couldn't wear
shoes that

instead she
wore Velcro
and would cry
after eating lunch
in her room alone.
This summer I did a great deal of self-evaluation. I thought about the upcoming experience of being a senior and the culmination of a very pleasant little educational track that benevolent forces had seemed to guide me along.

To underclassmen: Tri Di?
This is it. The end. In 24 days -- a mere 576 hours -- I, with the rest of my class, will graduate. In 24 days it will no longer be appropriate to puke up vodka cranberry for four hours on a Friday morning.
When you miss a 34th Street editor's meeting, one of your co-editors will think it's funny to tell everyone you're writing a column about life, so then you have to write a column about life.
This column, everyone, is about life.
I've only attempted something so ambitious once before.
Here's the thing with Fling: It scares me.
Oh, maybe "scares" is the wrong word. But the thought of Fling really does does make me all anxious and itchy.

Worst place to have sex
On top of the Button
Look, before you say anything, I know what you're thinking: "What kind of moron has sex on top of the button, instead of under it?" Well, the answer is the kind of moron who is free of your cliched conventions and your planned unspontaneity, and who has the courage to free his mind, videotape himself having sex on top of the button with a hooker, get caught videotaping himself having sex on top of the button with a hooker, be handcuffed naked and thrown into a squad car, have to pay a large fine, do community service, attend sexual aggression classes, explain the whole thing to his parents and then have to speak at his old middle school about "D.A.R.E.-ing to be sexually safe."

I sometimes wonder, "If Jude Law is really good at playing jackasses, is he really good at being a jackass?" I also sometimes wonder if he secretly wants to be a lawyer.
