Book Description
This book is designed to give people a sense of what my freshman year was like. Every awkward, beautiful, life-changing moment. And even those little moments that maybe no one remembers except for me, because as I stated above, everything in my life is an event. No matter the size of the event. This is not going to be a stereotypical, "What to Expect When Starting College" book. It's a, "What Emily's College Experiences Were, When Starting College" book. The events may not pertain to you and your experiences. I just hope you can enjoy reading a hilarious (at least I think so) take on a college girls freshman year.

Pages : 322
Book Description
Washington Post columnist Alexandra Petri turns her satirical eye on her own life in this hilarious new memoir... Most twentysomethings spend a lot of time avoiding awkwardness. Not Alexandra Petri. Afraid of rejection? Alexandra Petri has auditioned for America’s Next Top Model. Afraid of looking like an idiot? Alexandra Petri lost Jeopardy! by answering “Who is that dude?” on national TV. Afraid of bad jokes? Alexandra Petri won an international pun championship. Petri has been a debutante, reenacted the Civil War, and fended off suitors at a Star Wars convention while wearing a Jabba the Hutt suit. One time, she let some cult members she met on the street baptize her, just to be polite. She’s a connoisseur of the kind of awkwardness that most people spend whole lifetimes trying to avoid. If John Hodgman and Amy Sedaris had a baby…they would never let Petri babysit it. But Petri is here to tell you: Everything you fear is not so bad. Trust her. She’s tried it. And in the course of her misadventures, she’s learned that there are worse things out there than awkwardness—and that interesting things start to happen when you stop caring what people think.
