Positives

Winter Break is just about two weeks away! Where has this semester gone? But hey, I’m not complaining. Wherever it’s gone it can stay there because I’m ready for five weeks of no morning classes.

This is the last week of classes so don’t slack off now! Make sure to pay attention during reviews; finish out the semester strong. Relaxation time is just around the corner (as is Relaxation Day, sponsored by SCOPE)

Negatives:

How crazy people get over Black Friday shopping. It can be a fun experience, but some individuals just get too serious about the sales. Fighting over a twenty-dollar toaster? A few hours ago people were giving thanks for what they had.

When people try to cover up the truth. It doesn’t matter that the stabbing two Saturdays ago was an isolated incident between two people. Just because it was not a positive news story, doesn’t mean it didn’t happen. As students we have a right to know what goes on within our own campus.

What could be better than a few days off of school, time with the family, and piles of food? I hope the tryptophan from all that turkey you ate on Thanksgiving has worn off, because it’s time to get down to business— time to get food off the mind, and start thinking about finals. And research papers. And projects. Well, in that case, maybe I’ll go back to thinking about food instead.
