As I Say Goodbye....

As I say goodbye to "The CUSE" this semester
I remember the good times and all its splendor
10 page papers and reading quizzes too
Makes me more excited to bid adieu
I'm ready for the fun and adventure back at home
No more of this white stuff Syracuse calls snow
Of course I'll miss my friends and fun classes
But I'm ready to head to London for some fish n' chips in a basket
This little rhyme may be for beginners only
But I'm a Communications major, so you know it's not phony.
I'm simply trying to spread a little laughter, cheers, and warm news
I'm ALWAYS representing "The Cuse" As I Say Goodbye blues

Well that's it, that's all for this rhyme
Catch me next year, and I'll continue the good time

SURPRISE

So you guys all no that I have an extremely busy week this week right? Well out of no where today in one of my classes (which ends on Thursday)my professor decided that it would awesome to have a 5 page paper due on Monday instead of a of another reading quiz!!!!!!! Now to some this could be seen as harsh, unfair, or down right mean. But sometimes one needs to look to the brighter side. Instead of having multiple essay questions, long nights and about four cups of coffee studying a large range of material for a test. A paper requires only a few necessities such as: thesis questions, and a couple points to talk about. Maybe it's not as difficult as studying for a test, which I don't mind, but at this point so far I can handle a little paper. (But don't quote me on that until the end of the week....I could be dreading it because of the other papers that I have to write : )
