The Real University of Toronto Lingo

Greetings all,

I'm subscribed to various pages for my university and recently they posted the Lingo that First Year students need to know. It was pretty lame so I decided to come up with the REAL lingo that students need to know when they first come to UofT

http://www.studentlife.utoronto.ca/hello/glossary
A is for Alone which is how you will feel in the classes with over 300 students
B is for Bell Curve which is what a lot of profs use to compensate for their ridiculously hard tests
C is for Crying, which is something you'll engage more in once you start at UofT
D is for Despair, which is how you feel when you realize that that 4.0 GPA is out of your reach
E is for Expensive because an education costs a lot nowadays
F is for F*cked, which is how you will feel on a daily basis
G is for God Damn, which are words you will be utilizing more during your time at UofT
H is for Hell, which is how UofT feels
I is for Isolated, which is how you will feel from the world since you will spend all of your time studying
J is for Joy, that feeling that will get sucked out of you during midterms
K is for the Knowledge you will lose two days after you finish an exam
L is for Life, which you will not have because all your time is spent on doing school work
M is for Moron, which is how you will feel on a daily basis because what you know is so small compared to what you do know
N is for Nausea, the sensation you will experience when waiting to write your tests and exams
O is for Oblivious which is how most professors are on how difficult and painful their tests are for other students
P is for Pain, which is what you will experience
Q is for Queasy, which is how you feel when you have prepared extensively for a test but the professor has not given the class any sort of material to prepare for it
R is for Ridiculous which is what you will think about tests as you'll realize professors will put questions tests that they absolutely gave you no skills on how to solve during class
S is for Sanity, that thing you will inevitably lose after midterms
T is for Tears, a lot of which will be shed when you realize that you probably will no do as well as you would like in your courses.
U is for University. You will be using this word daily such as "Why did I choose this University when I could have chosen a more easier one?"
V is for Vindictive, which is what the profs are
W is for Weak which is how you will feel as the time and effort you put in at UofT will make you feel this way all the time
X is for Xeric what will happen to your brain from all the studying it has been engaging in
Y is for Yawn as some professors have no passion and will bore you to tears with their lectures that sometimes teaches you nothing of value
Z is for Zest for Life, which you lose during your time at UofT
