Welcome Freshmen: A Poem

It is time once again, to say hello

To fresh young minds eager to grow.

The freshman, it seems, have come at last

To hang out in dorms and sit on the grass.



To them I say, Welcome fresh fish

For your next year will be one not to miss.

Take it from me, the wise and the learned

Never a party goes skipped, never a credit un-earned.



You are in for a ride of unimaginable glee

Where you will learn what it is to truly be free.

No curfew, no rules, a fine situation

Unless you attend a Catholic institution.



So let me just say, from the depths of my heart

I hope you all have a very good start

Because as you grow, you will certainly find

That in freshman year, your best times are left behind.



To make the best of this year, you must listen true

To this brilliant advice I pass on to you.

Don't question my wisdom, for I am surely right

Hell, I drank beer from a girl's ass one night.



You must never skip class unless for good reason

Like throwing a Frisbee, drinking, or sleeping.

You must always call home; make sure that it's done

Where do you think all your money comes from?



Avoid every chance to eat in the cafe

Don't ask me why" just ask your ass.

Always wear sandals when washing your body and hair

Who knows what the kid before you was doing in there?



When given a nickname, never protest it

It's an honor to be called "Slutski" or "He-Tit"

Write all of your papers the night before they're due

You'll save lots of time and energy too!



When dining at home, there are but three options

Easy Mac, Pop Tarts and, of course, Top Ramen

Piss off your roommate right from the get go

It's fun to have a psycho sleeping below you.

Sex is ok, but make sure to be careful

The top bunk is shaky and the common room; lethal.



Get a fake ID, but do not be hasty

You don't look Puerto Rican when you're tall, thin and pasty.

Attend every party or soon you will see

That you're the only kid on the hall with no STD



Drink every beer, take every hit

Wake up on the floor covered in shit.

Take every shot, down every drink

Smoke till your brain can no longer think

Smack every ass, gain every pound

Pull your drunk ass up off the ground

Wear every hoodie, cry every May

Cherish every moment you can remember the next day.



With that, my friends, it is time for me to go

I hope you have listened to all that I know

But let me just say, and let you just hear

Welcome, young minds, to your Freshman Year.
