10 "Humorous" Things I Learned from Campus Outreach

10. Mopeds are EXTREMELY DANGEROUS.

9. When you need a quick shower, the pool is always a good option.

8. Before marriage, group dates are GOOD. After marriage, "The Firm encourages children".

7. You can have a date call and cancel because they just got engaged to someone else. (This one was submitted by Todd Brooks. I think he is speaking from personal experience. He probably needed to have a "DTR".)

6. Washing dishes by hand from 6am-2pm in a PCB kitchen with no AC for $4/hour is not the best way to make a living. This summer job motivated me to finish college.

5. "You can plan your time or somebody else will." "If you fail to plan, you plan to fail." BTW, I currently do not have a Daytimer or carry around a 3 hole punch notebook.

4. To save money, you can schedule an ALL DAY LONG (9AM-9PM) Area Staff Meeting at a fast food restaurant conveniently located between campuses...free meeting place and free sweet tea refills.

3. If you are on a CO summer project and smell something really rank above your bunk bed (bunk beds...I'm not even going to go there...8 guys in one hotel room...you don't even want to know), the first place to check is inside the AC vent to see if the 8 guys from the room next door have left their poop in a zip-lock bag as a little house warming gift.

2. Use abbreviations as much as possible: CO, COB, SBP, PCB, CCP, LDP, SLP, PD, P&P, MDG, DOPE, DTR, O3, DGROUP, ET, LT, AD, CD, QT, TAWG, 3Ms, 3Cs, HS (HIMSELF), CT (himself), PCA, FBC, DSHIP, OT, NT, ACCT, SM, ETC.

1. A "side hug" is the most appropriate way to greet a friend of the opposite sex. I still practice this today. Seriously!
