How and Why I Feel Old.

I know I'm a measly 24 years old but going back to a college town after a 2 year hiatus will really make you realize just how far you've come and how much energy you've lost.

Granted, Ive always been on the 'boring' side compared to the Average College Kid aka ACK but let me go ahead and put it all into perspective:

1. We went to Midtown to go to 101 Cantina, the newest 'hot spot' in town, the line was too long so we left and went to a quaint lil obscure bar instead.

The ACK woulda scooted themselves to the front, knocked some people down on their way, and done whatever it took to get in, or sneak in.

2. I walked a mile and a half in heels and didn't quit complaining for a single minute.

The ACK would have either taken off their shoes, hitchhiked, or been too drunk to notice the pain in their feet.

3. We walked into a house straight out of Old School with the oh-so-typical moose hanging off the wall and girls underwear used as antler decorations. I sat on the cleanest couch, warned people not to sit on the bean bag, and then counted down the minutes till we were out of there and I could take a shower in Purell.

the ACK would think this house is really 'sweet', sit on anything, pee on anything, and probably pass out on the floor in the bathroom.

4. It was 4am and I wondered what on earth I was doing out at that time.

4am is standard time for the ACK to order Gumby's and then move on to the next after party.

5. Tail-gating consisted of diet coke and water because i didn't 'want to get dehydrated standing all day in the hot sun'. geez.

The ACK uses the diet coke to mix into their rum and the water bottle to sneak vodka into the stadium.

6. Went to the game for a total of 15 minutes because it was 'too hot' to stand in the sun.

the ACK doesn't feel heat because he's too busy starting a wave, cursing at the other team's fans, or getting escorted out of the game for starting a fight.

7. Didn't go out Saturday night and stayed in to watch Transformers 2 because we were too tired after the game and fell asleep at 12am.

the ACK fell asleep at 12am too, except they passed out on the front lawn of a house party they were celebrating the big win at.
