Smokers also meet death easier. But don't let that stop you from taking up the habit of lighting up a cancer stick now and again.

as much as they tell you to go liberal and take random courses to see what you like, I'd recommend at least a small bit of planning and mapping out of your 4 years.

you can buy all that there....( if that was an actual question)

PS. granola bars are good, just don't get too hung up on them. Most of them have pretty high caloric content, which adds up to those freshman fifteen.

Tickle, that just means you (and I I'm afraid, haha) have been here too long. Pretty much everything has been asked here at some point. Nothing wrong with going through it all again this year.
