Oh, it's great.

What would you do? Wait around two hours for a class that doesn't take attendance, or go ahead and get 3/4 of the way home in that time?
Well, if you can get by missing the class and not be behind or miss something important, you're gone.

I had all intentions of turning a paper in Wednesday morning and leaving until I turned my alarm clock off instead of snooze this morning. Now I gotta go to both of em.

Dude, with as much as I make fun of myself on this site, I'm sure what they're saying isn't bad.

First year they brought it back.

Back in '99 & '00, we had a 3-day fall break, but only two days for Thanksgiving. They then moved those three days to Thanksgiving break to give us a whole week. Now, you guys get a whole week for Thanksgiving + a 3-day fall break. Lucky, lucky, lucky.

Two-day fall break, not three.

My bad, but you know what I mean.

I wish they would give that to the staff.


By the way Supe, a female student worker up here happens to be in this famous biology class. I showed her the thread & she said she'd have to show some of her friends there.

Nobody's immune from this thread. If you say something cheesy on a Facebook status, away message, or AIM profile, it's going on here.

With that being said:

Love is like swallowing hot chocolate before it has cooled off.
It takes you by surprise at first,
But keeps you warm for a long time. (bmh)
That's from an AIM profile. The names have been kept confidential unless the person wants to reveal himself.

Now this could be fun. Try guessing who that is.

I say it's Bryson.

the way they worked the 2 days in for this break is that we started on a Monday instead of the traditional Wednesday like they have done every year i have been here....so technically we still got the same amount of class days....but i like this break...

Oh yeah. I know they had to keep the same amount of days, but man, it would be nice to have this.

oh it is nice...it seemed like every year that the time between the start of school and thanksgiving break would last forever...this helps break it up...i think my grades will be better because of this to be honest

It'll help mine. It gives you a break in the middle of the semester to re-energize to do all the papers/projects due around Thanksgiving, and then Thanksgiving re-energizes you going into exams.
