And yes…I feel like this:
You will (should) find yourself much more focused and able to manage your time better. A little life experience goes a long way in higher education. At some point you will realize how much time you wasted as an undergrad and get angry at yourself. Enjoy the scenery.
Dude, it was like “night and day” for me after I returned from the Army. My first two years in Aerospace were a disaster…I was not prepared because I never had to “hit a lick” in high school to get grades, therefore I didn’t have a clue about how to study and manage time. 4 years in the Army during the 66-70 time frame straightened my butt out and I was fortunate enough to have qualified to go through the Defense Language Institute for about a year in linguistic training, I figured out the “studying and time management issue”…Let’s see “do I study or do I want to live with rats, mortar attacks, the jungle, and the like”?
I did it after the Army, then worked for 3 years, then back to get my MBA which was also a good experience.
As for the jokes, when I left State after the spring semester of 65, we had one girl’s dorm that housed about 25 students…Came back in 70 and there were girls all over the place. I know the shock on my face must have been obvious the night that I took a coed back to her dorm after a date in my apartment and she said “do you want to come up to my room for a while”? Times had certainly changed!!
