lol! glad to see you're enjoying college. you were a little nervous going in... if i remember correctly you had a friend going too so it was a little easier...
are you living on or off campus? dorm life can be rather decadent. ;) if you are in the right one. went to kent state for a while, living in the coed art dorm. talk about a new lifestyle!! so after coming down a year later and getting my life together again, i was able to concentrate on me studies and have been doing them ever since... working to go to school, going to school to work.
and yes, these years will only come once and each new experience take as a learning opportunity, so enjoy them, but be very careful and wear a sweater (ok, sounded like mom for a minute there). but have fun. and dont forget to learn something while you're there. :)
