How to recognize a freshman

Well, after I registered and got my new schedule of college classes, I feel somehow the so called "evolution" on the academic matter, new classes are nice so far, I just got a couple of teachers (always has to be one at least) that really make me fall asleep. I can't help it, sometimes life is cruel to the world of smart and and lazy ppl (^_^).

Anyway, as the new term starts I can see some new, confused and sometines excited faces on the horizon, yes, we all were one of those before, but not too many remember that. easily recognizable individuals. The peruvian spanish refers it as "cachimbo" and most of the time ppl feel reluctant to talk to them and sometimes ppl think they are too noisy and annoying.

I don't have any personal issues against "cachimbos", I perfectly remember when I was one, but today I brought my lunch with me and I began to eat it on one of the gardens of the campus, natural stuff for me, so not so far from me there was a girl sitting in a bench, and she was kind of nervous, right away I could know she was a fresh because she was hidding something I could figure it was a sandwich, as you may know, sandwich as lunch is usually "school lunch". Poor girl, if she knows what she about to become...

You recognize a freshman because:

1. He gets to classes really sharp at the hour, and never misses the first day.
2. He looks confused, because most of the times the room numbers of his class aren't there.
3. He walks in large groups, so he can get beer at cheap price easily.
3. He can even throws paper balls in the middle of the class, because he gets bored.
4. Everyone gets along, at least before the mid-terms.
5. During mid-terms most of them freak out.
6. No one dares to say he or she is gay. At least until they get drunk, but what happens in vegas ...
7. It is easy to know that some of them has failed to choose their career.
8. Most of them thinks they have authority to talk because, it's college!!! the world can be changed!!!!
9. It is easy to find lonely ppl walking around, the lack of social skills remains after school!!!
10. After a week or two, it is easy to see that many groups have been formed, just as school, barbie girls, nerds, weird guys, emos, rock stars, shy guys, serial killers....etc etc

So nothing to worry about, the world is safe with the new generation that's about to come.

So let's shine once more
