Customer- *hands me a Price Chopper savings card* Do I need this?
Me- No, this isn’t Price Chopper.
This happens quite a bit. It happened twice last week. I have also had people attempt to pay for their groceries with a Sam’s Club card, get their savings with a Triple AAA card, start to leave before signing [...]

I realize that I haven’t updated this blog in over a week. Not only that, but my past five or so blogs have been about Harry Potter. Why? Because nothing that exciting has happened. Nothing blog-worthy has come about in my life. But, I feel the need to update despite the lack of excitement in [...]

It’s hard to believe it’s been a year since I spent two or three hours in my old school’s library trying out various blogging websites while I should have been studying. I decided on WordPress after not liking FreeWebs. Although I did [...]

Today we had a test in Research Methods. It was our second test in the class and my teacher passed out scantron sheets like she had done with the previous test. I proceeded to fill it out, realizing as I bubbled in the second ‘A’ in my name that I had put my first name [...]

It’s 45 degrees and people are walking around campus in shorts and throwing frisbees and footballs around.
It has been abnormally warm the past few days. 40-50 degrees, no snow. Definitely not normal for March. Today, it’s supposed to get close to 60.
I was walking back to my dorm today and the cleaning lady says to [...]

My Creative Writing teacher decided to make each of us print out 21 copies of our 8-10 page short stories. I was quite surprised at this because normally the teachers make the copies for all the students.
Then I got to thinking, if each of us prints out 21 pages of a 10 page paper, that’ll [...]
