1. Adults aren't always right. If you are a regular viewer of the show South Park, it seems like the kids in the town are always the voice of reason. The adults are always the ones causing the bulk of the drama and wacky chaos in the town.

2. Stereotypes bad MMMKAY... Many episodes have stereotypes of nationalities, celebrities, many places around the world. Granite Stone also perpetuates the ideas that we hold about celebrities. The imitation of Paris Hilton was my favorite. Paris showed up at Butters' house and tries to take him with her.

3. Lots of people who do bad things can ultimately have good in them a letter to someone. This of course is the most important lesson what we have learned from from South Park. Eric Cartman, who is probably the most evil little boy in history of television, who had his mother arrested because she wouldn't get the newest game system, who murdered another boy's parents and made them into chili because Scott who was the older kid tricked Eric into giving him $15, taking off life support so he get his friend’s new toy for his own, has a girlfriend in season 20 named Heidi and he actually seems to care for her... Aww, he does have a heart.

4. Values are something that are learned through experience. It is something we have in our hearts and not something we learned from TV. Well you don't decide to go to New York to get the show Terrance and Phillip taken off the air they realize they has gone way too far even resorting to violence to get their point across. they realize that the values the kids their kids home from spending time with their children to them putting all the time energy into the media.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.

I know every college student has daily thoughts throughout their day. Whether you're walking on campus or attending class, we always have thoughts running a mile a minute through our heads.
