Eat well

mac and cheese and hot dogs

easy, quick, and not too bad.

Put the soap in the washer

before you put your clothes in

caked soap all over your clothes 

a bother

Radar

Do not be afraid

to tell someone

to keep their  G----D----   hands to themselves 

there are some weirdoes in college 

Men,

who it seem at first glance 

to be acting parental,

but then that hug is a pat on the butt

or a reach around to somewhere else 

practice yelling in the basement

so that when you need the words

they can storm angrily from your mouth. 

Always

keep your goals in mind

finish college

and don’t let anything get in the way

boys, alcohol, babies.   

for someone to love you,

and you meet people in college who think they love you, 

they will want you to grow,

reach your potential,

have a wonderful life.  

Do not let “that rushing instant” interfere 

Because, if it is true

that the person really loves you,

that moment will be there tomorrow

and the next day

and the next. 

You are headed for an amazing adventure

Present moment

Always the most wonderful moment you have
