We do well working under the limited pressure provided by deadlines. I don't think I've done an assignment without procrastinating at least a little since I was in first grade.

Awesome, Sane, I'm the same way...although it does make the night before suck a little.

Wow, Willow, you've provoked Finrod to anger. That takes talent.

Younger siblings tend to be good at provoking even the most sweet-tempered of elders.

Must go to class now.

Oof! School is almost done so I'm just going to sit down for a moment. I need something to drink. Do we have any loose-leaf Earl Grey around?

Tea sounds awesome. I'm starting to get the end of the semester excitement too. I really think I can do well in calculus, and I don't think my other classes will be bad either. I'm feeling optimistic.

That's awesome! I was looking into a calculus class, but it wasn't required and i didn't have any extra space on my already over-crowded course schedule

I'm sure everything went well!

I'm just excited because summer is coming, and I'll be away dancing 6 days a week, 6 hours a day on full scholarship for 5 weeks!

Sounds sick, and probably is but it's going to be AMAZING!

You were sad about not being able to take calculus? I was terrified when I signed up!

What kind of dancing is that?

E-mail, e-mail, e-mail, e-mail....

I love it dont you?



An old man, a boy & a donkey were going to town.

The boy rode on the donkey & the old man walked.


As they went along they passed some people Who remarked it was a shame
the old manWas walking and the boy was riding.



The man and boy thought maybe the critics
Were right so they changed positions.


Then, later, they passed some people who remarked,
'What a shame, he makes that little boy walk.'



So they then decided they'd both walk!


Soon they passed some more people who
Thought they were stupid to walk when
They had a decent donkey to ride.


So, they both rode the donkey.


Now they passed some people who Shamed

them by saying how awful to Put such a load on a poor donkey.

The boy and man figured they were probably

Right, so they decide to carry the donkey.
As they crossed the bridge,
They lost their grip on the animal

And he fell into the river and drowned.



The moral of the story?



If you try to please everyone,

You might as well..


Kiss your a$$ goodbye!





Have A Nice Day And
Be Careful With Your Donkey

Argh. This paper is not moving.

I think I really am going to be up all night.

Ah well, I'll be checking in here every once in a while (looking hopefully for RP posts to ease my mind and have a little bit of fun with ).
