Another Saturday night and I ain't got nobody I've got some money 'cause I just got paid Now, how I wish I had someone to talk to

I don't know which is worse see the cutesy couple walking by the desk so in love I gag or the clear fact that because I am working this shift I don't have a social life. Either way the chances of finding my true love at the library on a Saturday night is quite slim. Next to the couples that make my stomach flip the freshmen come in close second.

Couple Count- 45

So Here is the Check-List to tell Freshmen apart from the rest....

1.) The Library Audio Tour- Only a freshmen would look so lost while on a tour of the library. Even more instead of being ashamed of standing and blocking traffic while being walked throughout the library they seem to enjoy it.

2.) The Hunchback Look - It is almost like High School has failed them. There is no need to carry ones books ever where with them. In fact it looks like they are afraid of forgetting something for class, or having their roommates steal it.

3.) The Lack of Respect - I must be getting older because I am at awe and shock over the lack of respect new students are giving those around them. I am not sure if it is they have blown out their ears or never learned what an inside voice is.

4.) School Spirit - yes there are more than just freshmen that have school spirit but they have the most and more of them have it. From lanyards to picture frames they are ready to go up against any non-BYU fan and fight to the death, they really will bleed blue for their school. I doubt you will find many upper-upperclassmen that would...

5.) Deer in the Headlights - lost is a real understatement, Many are unsure where to go and what they way they should be walking, instead of being a part of the moving traffic they try and fight it and cause problems. I mean I am all for marching to the beat of your own drum but when walking around traffic, just go with the flow.

6.) High School Attitude - I have to admit with shame I watched High School Musical with my sister but we are in college. Come on, no cares what we did in high school if you were a captain of the cheer-leading squad or the biggest nerd, we are all now very small fish in an ocean. Freshmen haven't realized that they are no longer the big fish in their pond. If you have not noticed everyone and their dog got music lessons and held high profile callings. They arent used to being like everyone else.

7.) The wrong opionin - As one leaves the nest they have been influenced by what their parents thought, now that they are on their own it is like they dont know what to think or commonly think the wrong thing. It doesnt matter if they were sheltered or not. Most have not been on thier own long enough to have their own ideas. or be comfortable within their own skin. Sometimes they just need to shut-up and listen.

I fear that if I keep going then I will start to really get on my soap box and proclaim my opinion to the world without my remebering to use my filter system.
