In high school, I was one of the unfortunate people to get mono, otherwise known as mononucleosis. Otherwise known as "The Kissing Virus". When I got it, I got nothing but grief from friends and acquaintances.

I believe I was in 9th grade (that's about four years ago) when my Aunt told me, "When you graduate, you get to pick the vacation. Even if it's to another country."

What do you think of when you hear that something is a stereotype? Usually, I'd easily assume you have a similar reaction to mine. Stereotypes are bad, or wrong, or misleading. Stereotypes tell us that all women belong in the kitchen or all black people are "gangstas" and the like. Especially if you've spent any amount of time on this site, you'd see some stereotypes aren't quite so bad.

In the first couple days of attending a college or university you can learn a lot about college life. For example:
