School comes first


Make sure that you remember why you came to college. You came here for an education, not to party. Nobody will think your cool when you go away to school and end up failing classes and than go back home to a community college. If you prioritize during the week and make sure that you get all of your homework and studying done early in the week you will be completely free for the weekend! If you have a test on Friday, if you sit down and really study Wednesday night, you can just review on Thursday and get to go out and than review before the test. You have to make sure that you always remember why you're here.
Make sure if you have an early class you don't stay out too late. SCHOOL IS WHY YOU CAME HERE! If you have an 8 am class make sure that you don't stay out all night. You can go out until 12:30 and be able to function the next day. You don't wanna be that asshole that falls asleep and the professor calls you out on it.
Always make sure why your at school, for this. To be able to graduate on time not on the 5 or 6 year plan. You want to get out and be able to get a job. College is fun, but not after the 7th year. Always remember that you want to graduate and start your own life.


Never pass out with your shoes on


One of the basic rules of drinking, never pass out with your shoes on. If you pass out with your shoes on, people can do whatever they want to you. Like this picture above. When you go out drinking always make sure that you eat before you go. Drinking on an empty stomach is never a good idea, you need things in your stomach be absorbed. If you go out without food in your stomach you will get drunk really quick, and nobody likes a light weight. ;) 
Also, always make sure that you don't go out alone, and if you do make sure you keep your phone on you at all times. You never know what's going to happen. You need to make sure if you do go home with someone that you be responsible and make sure to use a condom.
Usually when I go out I leave one of my friends my keys so that I never have the chance to lose my room keys cause hey, lets be honest who wants to pay $50 for a new key and than $10 for an i.d card.
NEVER DRINK AND DRIVE. Which is the biggest rule of all, drinking and driving is never worth the consequences. You really don't know what could happen, and just because you didn't get caught the first time doesn't mean you'll never get caught. Drinking and driving is a really scary thing no matter what age you are. It's not that hard to call a cab, or just walk! Or even have a sober friend and take turns who drives and who drinks. It's easily avoidable, so just avoid it!!
