Now What?!

What to do while waiting to start college part 2 / Grad school!
1.       Find a home
-not in a sketchy neighborhood despite the fact one is going further and further from campus
-away from all those college part 1 kids who drink beer and party and make noise all through the night
-where-in one can quietly sip wine and socialize and study academics all through the night
-at the same price range as a college part 1 kid
The flat screen is behind the Monet, of course.


2.       Get a job
-either right away at the nearest Barnes and Noble, complete with immediate regret and long term mental/emotional devastation
-or three months later once one has finally registered with the university and is qualified to apply for relevant university jobs associated to one’s major
-after an eternal month of odd chores done for parents, neighbors, friends of parents and neighbors and begging for loans and/or scholarships
Does babysitting also montage into an overcoming the odds heartfelt championship?


3.       Get to know the new town
-by walking around nearby neighborhoods and finding main roads
-and decide how far is too far to ride a bicycle to save on gas money
-by getting lost at midnight with a dead phone and a shred of sanity
Corner of 2nd and 35th?  How is that possible? Then left on Fuck You HaHa Ave.


4.       Make some friends
-through transactions with over-personable associates at places of business
-by starting a bank account
-from hanging out too long with one’s own parents
That'll be $7.63.  Also, what's your number? Let's hang out later, random customer.


5.       Get back into some artistic hobbies
-because one’s broke ass can’t afford a tv right now
-because the new home could use some personal touches
-because one still doesn’t have a job yet and needs a more satisfying form of procrastination
-because one’s dream of musical stardom suddenly seems possible what with all the practice and writing time now available
How could one be reduced to selling club memberships with such a talented mustache as this?
