An Ode to College

An Ode to College- By Alexis Granell

I find this whole college thing

To be a lot harder than it looks

From dawn to dusk the only thing

I ever do is books.

People said that it would be fun.

“It’s the best time of your life”

But sitting here right now I can’t help

But think they’ve lied.

Perhaps it will get better,

Perhaps I’ll have time to sleep.

But now it is 3 am and all

I want is something to eat.

So here’s to the freshmen 15

Here’s to staying up late

Here’s to fire alarms, roommates, and A’s.

Here’s to four years and 3 more for law school.

Here’s to massive student loans,

To endless amounts of caffeine to go.

Here’s to the Professors we won’t ever understand.

Here’s to college…
