HOW THE HELL DID I GET THROUGH COLLEGE

RETRO DON'S POST -- ORIGINAL STUFF FROM DEC. 2013

TERM PAPER

i lay down in bed last night.

realizing that a term paper was due this morning i knew that i needed my computer, paper, and pen to prepare my hand written paper.

pondering this revelation, it occurred to me that i may be dreaming.

if i weren't dreaming what was the worst thing that could happen to an old man if i didn't do the paper?

then a miracle happened i awoke.


FINAL EXAMS

in addition to dreaming of term papers due the next morning i also dream of final exams that i have not prepared for. having gone through life on the wing and a prayer and really not prepared for anything, i have managed to survive. no wonder i have bad dreams about final exams and term papers.


MORE FINAL EXAM NIGHTMARES

final exam at 10 am today.

i don't remember that.

its in contracts.

can't remember the last time i attended class.yes, i remember now - i think.

i should have prepared.

i'm on campus now.

students and staff are walking this way and that. what building, and room is it in?

i'd better go over to the administration building and find out.

yikes, its 9:30 already.

pushing my way through crowds on the hill heading towards the building.

there's a sign on the door.

it says the admnistration building has been moved to the other campus.

i'm on the subway now heading towards the other campus.

no i'm not. this train is going into the borough of queens.

the train is now traveling above ground.

all that can be seen is the shrubbery along the countryside.

i'll get off at the next stop and crossover to the otherside to get back to the city.

at the next stop there is a bus waiting that goes into the bronx over the whitestone bridge.

the bus ia a local and makes many stops.

finally arriving at west farms square.

home at last.

seems that thats where i wanted to be in the first place.

MUST DO COLLEGE. HOW ELSE CAN I SURVIVE ?
