Things to do:

1. Playing soccer in the hallway
2. Recounting the “You’re a child of the 80’s if..” list
3. Recounting the “Churck Norris” list on the first floor..
4. Shooting nerf guns at passing hall-mates
5. Cramming 5 guys around a 13″ tv in 1 guy’s 12′x15′ room
6. Those crammed 5 guys laughing at the idiots on America’s Funniest Videos
7. Alt, 5 guys all watching the same tv show in their own room, cheering/groaning in unison
8. Marshall’s comments:
   1. “I prayed once..”
   2. During a story-retelling, we hear, “1″, “2″.. so we ask “What  are you doing?” “Counting propositions.”
9. Marshall walking out of his room with another form of food each 30 seconds.
10. Eating massive amounts of cafeteria pudding, much to Dave’s delight.
11. Hereby shirking responsibility on account of any of the above/following statements..
12. Going out to eat every Thursday night
13. Going out to eat & all 8 of us growning in sadness upon the TV channel change(passing up college football) by the restaurant owner & subsequent cheering when returning to it.
14. The 50 million T-shirt design ideas
15. The 60 million “cool things to do” fluke ideas (mostly revolving around various forms of high-powered projectiles)
16. Sunday nite “Catan”

Yes ladies, these are the ‘eligible men’ of SBTS. Some may say “this is childish & irresponsible & dumb & blah blah..” I say, it’s men learning how to have relationships & brothers. There’s a bond over these kinds of things.. some of us never had our dads interact with us like we needed, so some/much of this isn’t just “not growing up”.. I’d say it’s part of growing up. & the things we learn here we’ll remember & take with us into our relationship with our kids. My dad never went to college. I have & I’ll have stories to share with my boys. Personally, I can’t wait.

Likewise, I hope I never forget how to laugh & have fun. I’m so prone to do that though. So ready to be the stoic intellectual. Boring.. life is more than our brains being filled.
So I hold my head high over & against the ‘nay sayers’ to silliness.
