Silver Medal Maurice Hodgson Award
So, I won this creative writing award at my college. (Second place, and 500$! I have a pretty certificate to frame.) I didn't mention it before now because it was a secret. I wasn't sure if any of my classmates were on my friends list or not.

Posters
Woohoo, the Poem of the Month posters are up. (I was given two for myself. They're all shiny and glossy. <3) I decided I would go on an adventure around the college and tap all the Poem of the Month posters I could find. >.> I should have counted them, but I didn't think of that until afterwards.

It was kind of alarming in an 'I hope my throat doesn't close up and suffocate me' kind of way ( Read more... ) -
Swine Flu
Do people really have to ask the prof's policy about 'swine flu absences' in every class? I realize that this flu season is probably going to be much worse than normal, but people are freaking out like it's the plague ( Read more... ) -
Marks
Somehow, I managed straight As this semester. Whooohoooo.
o_o' It's weird, though. I didn't expect a decent mark on my Geology and my English classes.
I must have done really well on my exams. -
