    My first year of university I went for a japanese course, and we were mostly 18 year olds, some 20-somethings…, and a freshly retired lady. Eventually I decided it wasn’t my thing, but I remember these few weeks rather fondly

      My roommate in college thought that older students should be banned because they don’t have anything more important to do than study, so they get excellent grades and throw off the grading curve for the “real” students. It was fucking up his partying schedule, having to study to keep up with the older, better students.

      I told him to go fuck himself, and went to the job I worked through my entire college term.
