Church-like

I came across a post that says church is like high school all over again. The writer gave 25 ways on how it is so...

1. The first day is scary.
2. Everyone straightens up when the person in charge walks by.
3. It’s not the real world.
4. There are the popular people that everybody knows.
5. There are the shadow people that nobody knows.
6. If you want to make friends, you need to get involved in extra-curricular activities.
7. You have to do your homework if you really want to understand what’s being talked about.
8. If you stay up too late the night before, you might fall asleep.
9. If you fall asleep you hope the person next to you gives you a nudge before you let out one of those half-snorts/half-snore things.
10. You meet people who will be life-long friends.
11. You meet people you don’t care for.
12. You’d better remember to put your phone on vibrate or you’re going to be embarrassed.
13. No matter how many times your reminded, there is always someone who forgets to put their phone on vibrate. (They are also the one who always get a call, and the one with the disco ring tone.)
14. The purpose of being there is to get you ready for the real world.
15. There are people who think they already know it all.
16. There are people who think they know nothing.
17. You only get out of it what you put into it.
18. The music geeks are always rehearsing.
19. There will be people who never talk.
20. There will be people who never stop talking.
21. You can go on cool trips with your friends.
22. Some people want to stay forever.
23. Some people can’t wait to get out and do something in the world.
24. It’s no fun when you feel like you’re always being tested.
25. It’s a great place to be when it’s filled with spirit.
