Spring Break
It's that time of the year again. The leaves are changing, the days are shorter, and you are just now realizing how cold it's going to be in your sexy pirate outfit. Halloween is ECU's claim to fame, and the witching hour is almost upon us. For those of you in your first year of college, I'm sure you have heard the rumors, and after three years of experience, I can attest to their validity.
Halloween was never one of my favorite holidays. I loved being able to pretend to be something else, but I hated having to walk around and parade myself in front of large groups of strangers when I was an awkward little 10 year old. I just remember being tortured into wearing numerous silly costumes that included the ever-popular clown, Peter Pan, a red crayon (complete with pencil-shaped hat) and an ECU cheerleader.
To be honest, it doesn't bother me if you haven't shaved your legs in the last 24 hours. Clarissa never did explain it all. If you have to bad mouth a professor, don't you dare do it in front of me. I am sick of listening to you deride a talented and compassionate instructor just because you are too lazy to accept responsibility for your classes! I read Pirate Rants while driving home from class.
It took some doing and inspirational talks with my good friend Kerrigan Skelly on Monday, but I finally took that step in my life. After a good long heartfelt chat at the ol' library steps, I saw the light my friends. I have shed my old ways and accepted Jesus Christ into my life! It was so simple, that I could not believe I had not done it sooner.
