Sea Term

A time usually experienced by the second term freshman of a Maritime school. It is about a two month trip to basically every tropical paradise ever desired. It is the time where drinks are no longer water and sustenance but beer and liquor. This time is so-called good. Care must be taken in what exactly goes on during this trip. To leave a girl/boyfriend or woman behind takes much skill and preparation beforehand. To bring money is expected, for it will fly out of your pockets like skydivers out of airplanes. Good luck to whoever be sailing aboard the ship of sea term. And good luck to the parents and lovers of the men who we hope will return home.
