Two Kinds of People on Campus: Party Animal and The Sober Guy


In college there are two kinds of people, the party animal, and The sober
guy. The sober guy stays out of trouble, studies hard, and sometimes keeps to
himself. The party animal studies (most of the time), never avoids trouble, and
socializes.
A party animal is always at the party, in line for the keg. He usually
shows up early and partys too late. Rarely would one see the sober guy at a
college party. The party animal never cares about the brand of beer in the keg.
On the other hand the sober guy, if he partakes in alcohol induced activities,
would chose an imported bottled beer; for example, Corona with a twist of lime.
Chances are that the party animal's favorite beer is Natural Light in a can,
only if it's on sale.
The sober guy is always prepared for a quiz. A party animal usually
studies for a quiz twenty minutes before class begins. He also misses his
classes frequently. Sometimes, when the party animal shows up for class they are
hungover. Often, a party animal's grades are affected by attendance. On the
other hand, the sober guy is always on time for class, awake, and without a
hangover.
The party animal is usually a popular guy. People are always saying hi to
him or waving to him on campus. Most of the time he doesn't even remember who
they are. The sober guy goes to class and that's it. He usually has the business
before pleasure attitude. Once finished with the days studies he will then hang
out with his friends.
These are just two stereotypes of people on campus. They are almost
exact opposites. The party animal doesn't avoid trouble, has poor study habits,
and is very social. While the sober guy has excellent grades, stays away from
trouble, and isn't as social.
