Top 5 All-Time Best Memories of Halloween!

5. Mom's Halloween Cape! It glowed in the dark and was totally pimp! It will be missed!

4. Neewollah! Thanks for the memories SCCSM! Cold, smoky Hot Dogs, Poorly Haunted Hayrides, and the Pumpkin Catapult!

3. The A-tee Halloween, a.k.a, the Best Halloween Ever! I even remember the candy haul being good that year.

2. The Halloween spelling pictures. We would have to trace coloring book pictures of cats and pumpkins with our spelling words until the picture was complete!
Torture at the time, but I kind of miss them.

1. 5th grade Multiplication! The spooky house with the 12 times tables in the attic... Those bats were my enemies! It took me weeks to get through the second floor 7s and 9s. That remains the spookiest house I know!

Halloween also officially kicks of the Holiday pomp! I hereby begin the Super-month of Necuary, sometimes known as Thanksmas Year.

Semester-By-Numbers

There are sixty days left in the semester! It is going to fly by! Now for the Semester-By-Number approach to things. My applications for next semester are due in two weeks, and I am not sure where I am going. The play opens in three weeks, and I haven't even started on the costumes yet, but I have wanted to. Two of my papers are due in four weeks; I have started on those. Thanksgiving is in five weeks. In six weeks, I get to see my grandparents for the first time in six months. In seven weeks I die of excitement and exhaustion, and in eight weeks I take five finals and move out of Hall-Roland for good.

When you go through it in numerical order, picking everything apart, the semester flies by. When you look at the big picture, it still all adds up to sixty days.

Why what ever are you talking about?!?

So i am pretty sure this is a post of joy! It is about time! I have exciting news! The new amazingly beautiful, awesomely wonderful coffee shop, Besso's, opened in town. I have loged about 4 hours of table time in two days. It is so pretty: european themed, with wine cask tables, amazing home-roasted coffee, imported Junior's Cheesecake from NYC, and pastries (soon to come)! It has brick walls, a giant Parissian train station clock, and copper accents! I will post pictures soon.

Second piece of great news: Freed has the CW!!! We never had the WB, so i was convinced we didn't have the CW. tonight a girl was watching America's Next Top Model in the lobby, and i got very excited! So now i have to go back and find the new gilmore episodes online to catch up, but YAY for gilmore!!!

So this is my happy post. Other things have made me hapy later, but these two are very important to school life.
