xposted for minimal explainage
OK so. I don't really want to explain all of Flunk Day. But I guess I will so I don't have to explain it in 50 different IMs and facebook comments like I have been getting.

Today at 5:45 am I woke up to the sound of a bunch of drunken students, known as the "friars," running up and down the street yelling "IT'S FLUNK DAY, WAKE UP, IT'S FLUNK DAY, IT'S FLUNK DAY!" I didn't believe them and rolled back over. See, it is a surprise when it is every year (during Spring Term) and there are usually scares and stuff. Well my roommate checked her email to find that it was indeed Flunk Day (they send it out at 6:00 am to confirm that yes, hooray, here it is).

For the day, all classes are cancelled, and it is one big party on campus. Most people were drunk off their asses by 6:30 am. I was not, because I usually work on Tuesdays, so I had to wait till a reasonable time to call them and see if it was OK if I didn't come in. We played in the giant foam / soap sud pit for a long time, and it was freezing out, but when the new foam was made and enveloped your body it was like being wrapped in a warm cloud. It was delicious. Then we went to the mud pit where Erika and Sarah rolled around and then hugged me a lot.

We came back to the suite around 10:00 I think and hung out resting till 12:00, then we went for lunch. It was a big picnic outside. Then the inflatable obstacle courses and things were up so we watched people do that, and there was karaoke. We kind of just wandered around all afternoon. We napped from about 2:45 - 4:00, then watched the student vs. faculty softball game, which was really fun. Dinner came next, then we hung out on the gizmo patio for awhile, and it started raining (BARELY) and they canceled the fire dancers that were scheduled for 7:00, and moved the 8:00 movie to 7:00 instead, but we didn't want to go.

We came back to the suite and started to play Egyptian Ratscrew, but then Post 4 and some guys were outside playing kickball and convinced us to join, so we did that until it got too dark to see the ball anymore. Now we're inside and Sarah is eating easy mac and doing math homework and I am up in my room tiiiiiiiiiiiiired. I have to write my French paper tomorrow even though it isn't due till Thursday now, but I have class and work until 6:00 which is when it is due, so I kind of have to do it tomorrow. Class is still cancelled tomorrow which rules. I think I'm going to bed really early cause I'm exhausted, then I'll get up early and write my paper as quickly as possible, then go practice piano for like 8 hours and work out. By 8 hours I really mean 1 or 2. And by write my paper as quickly as possible, I really mean spend all day on it. Though I do have some good ideas for it and I did some research that supports a good point. Hooray.

I don't know how I'm going to do this 4 minute speech though. When he assigned it, he said 3 minutes, and in his email today, he said 4 minutes. Also, we apparently have to have a visual aid that helps with comprehension, and that is worth 20 points. What kind of aid can we have besides the book itself? I don't know.

I do know that my neck is really sore, and that I will post pictures tomorrow when my camera batteries are charged back up and I can upload them to my computer in the first place.

kthxbye.
