I DON'T WANNA GO BACK TO SCHOOOOLLLLLL

I mean I REALLY don't want to go back. You know how in high-school you would say to yourself, "Well, I really don't want to go back to the 'academic' part of school, but I do miss seeing those relentless despots (that some would call 'class mates') on a regular basis; maybe they've had a change of heart or an epiphany of sorts and will decide to be nice to me and cease that incessant taunting..."....? WELL THIS IS NOTHING LIKE THAT.
As I revel in the fleeting peacefulness of Auburn and its campus, I realize just how much I dislike this infestation of entities, be they students, professors, faculty, etc. It's nothing personal, I assure you; I know it's not your fault if you're not a "home-towner;" hey, after all, you didn't put Auburn University in Auburn; you're just minding your own business trying to get your BA or MD or PHD or MRS degree; and you're doing a darn good job of multitasking, what with the Skybar and the Bourban bar and the... Red Bar... it's amazing the percentage of students who are actually 21 and from Texas or Hawaii. Add to that the involvement in proficient organizations such as the esteemed "fraternities" and "sororities" and "SGA" and you've bogged yourself down. The last thing you need is some know-it-all with 7 hours of free time to be condemning you on her blog that no one reads while she's bored at work and has too much time on her hands. So believe me when I say that's NOT what I'm doing. I'm simply lamenting the loss of a time where there were (seemingly) no pedestrian-j-walking-car-possibly-drunk-driving accidents, when the AU Wal-Mart wasn't consistently out of everything necessary for operation, when the AU Police "force" didn't have five times the normal amount of policemen solely for the purpose of staking out the local bars/heavily traveled streets to give out DUIs and speeding tickets, or when it didn't take me twice as long to get somewhere because of rush hour traffic in a town that isn't even considered a major city of the state of Alabama.
BUT ALAS... school starts Monday, and if I have any aspirations of becoming the next world ruler like every other almost-20 year old, I have to go back and get that degree thing...
