Uni

The best years of your life (if you go, that is). Friends, legal drinking, more drugs, actually getting laid rather than pipe-dreaming about it. Clubs, etc! Yet less stupid social peer pressure and immaturity.

And no it doesn't have to be destructive if you can manage to balance your workload. And yeah it costs, big deal. Student loan (which is really a "tax") will be your saviour.

Work hard.
Play harder!

They say "school is the best years of your life" - rubbish.

University is much more fun if you make the best of it. Uni is the place where you can still feel young, yet get adult rights and treatment.

Even the once bullied kids and nerds become social butterflies at university.

uni

It's college you stupid fucks. Not uni. Please rid the English language of this bastardization of a word. It makes you sound like some pompous piece of shit with no self-esteem.

Say college. C-o-l-l-e-g-e.

It does not imply you go to a 2 year program. No one in top 20 programs refer to their program as a "uni." They say college.

"I go to college."

"When I was in college..."

"I am a college student."

Now get with it folks.

And there are plenty of third tier 4 year programs that are "universities." So saying "uni" does not mean anything, and instead reveals to the rest of the world you've probably gone to a no-name program or care too much about what others think of you.

*Saying university should only be with the full name of the program. Like Princeton University. Otherwise, it's almost always college. And never, ever "uni."
