Anyway, last night was the Christmas banquet, it was a lot of fun!! I went with a big group of girls, and we had a really great time!
Today was the Awana Christmas banquet, and we had to go set up in the afternoon, then go back down later for the actual banquet. It was good, but could have been better if I was feeling better.I am ready to go home! I leave in 6 sleeps, and I'm flyin! A week from yesterday I will be home! I cannot wait!
Just a little poem to leave you with:
T’was the night before finals,
And all through the college,
The students were praying,
For last minute knowledge.
Most were quite sleepy,
But none touched their beds,
While visions of essays
Danced in their heads.Out in the taverns,
A few were still drinking,
And hoping that liquor
Would free up their thinking.In my own room,
I had been pacing,
And dreading exams I soon would be facing.My roommate was speechless,
Her nose in her books,
And my comments to her
Drew unfriendly looks.I drained all the coffee,
And brewed a new pot,
No longer caring that
My nerves were shot.I stared at my notes,
But my thoughts were muddy,
My eyes went a blur,
I just couldn't study."Some pizza might help,"
I said with a shiver,
But each place I called
Refused to deliver.I'd nearly concluded,
That life was too cruel,
With futures depending
On grades had in school.When all of a sudden,
Our door opened wide,
And Patron Saint Put-It-Off,
Ambled inside.His spirit was careless,
His manner was mellow,
All of a sudden,
He started to bellow."On Cliff Notes, on Crib Notes,
On Last Years Exams.
On Wingit and Slingit,
And Last Minute Crams."His message delivered,
He vanished from sight.
But we heard him laughing,
Outside in the night.Your teachers have pegged you,
So just do your best.
Happy Finals to All,
And to all a Good Test.
And all through the college,
