Shout Out to Dunkin' Donuts


Dunkin' Donuts gave my students 50 free donuts to fuel them through a high-stakes test last week. I love remembering how kind and generous people can be when given the chance!

Being a Student

I miss it. I had three Hopkins papers to write today. Sadly, there were no Monicas racing down the hall in bikinis, no Lonis asking if I want Domino's Two for Tuesdays deal, no Mirandas coming back from the hottub at three in the morning, no Danas washing laundry after hockey practice. I miss the social aspects of being an undergraduate students. Maybe I should be a Hall Director and take literature classes that require me to read classics all day long.

Until then, I'll keep reading Twilight, Indigo Summer, and Monster to professionally develop myself.

Elijah

"Mrs. Carlson, you and Ms. Courtright should start an after-school program called 'Discovery.'"

"What do you mean?"

"That would be a good name because you're both...." he flails his arms, and goes on to explain that we both act "kind of out there" and it would be fun.
