HO-HO-HOLY FINALS.

I'll have a blue HOLIDAY* without you
I'll be so blue thinking about you
Decorations of red on a green HOLIDAY* tree
Won't mean a thing dear, if you're not here with me

-Blue HOLIDAY*
From: "A HOLIDAY* Album" (2002)

[*** NOTE: the real word used in this song is "Christmas." Christmas has, however, been replaced with "Holiday" in order to promote political correctness.]


It's that time of year again.  FINALS.  This week was the last week of classes. NOW starts the 24 hour quiet hours  until finals end here at this Private Liberal Arts College.  Most liberal arts schools have difficult finals.. but I would say that here at DePauw one must really work hard in order to succeed on the finals.  This past week for some has been worse than the actual finals week!  While all of my friends were busy writing papers and taking exams, I have really had nothing to do.  Although I have been studying here and there to get a jump start on preparing for next week, I have actually been somewhat bored.  That is why I have been working quite a lot of hours over at the admission office.

Those who regularly follow my blog will recall my employment in the DePauw University admission office from the summer.  This week I have been reliving my time spent there putting stickers on things, stuffing letters, and gluing things together.  I personally love to glue. Along with that I have been babysitting for the children of a couple of my professors. 

Something that I really like about this Top Private University is that there are a plethora of jobs both on campus and off.  Students are close enough with professors that one may actually go to a professors house to watch their kids! It's nice to be making a bit of $$ before the Holiday Season!

ON another note! It seems as though everything is Holiday-ed out lately! Almost all of the Greek houses are covered in lights, and Kappa Kappa Gamma is decorated inside as well! 

 
I know it's somewhat huge and hard to see, but this is a picture of SAE (fraternity next door to KKG) As you can see, it is all decked out in lights!! SO much fun,















In this picture, I am hanging out with some friends at Phi Delta Theta.  All of the people in this picture besides myself are Freshmen.  Freshmen weren't allowed on Greek property before Fall Break, but now they are so it's really nice to get to meet all of them!  Because this is a Small Liberal Arts School, there really is no division between the different years in school. 
It's awesome when everyone is able to be friends no matter of age.  This is in Jon and Carlos' room, and as you can see they have a lot of pride for their country!!

 Do not fret, I will write next week to inform all of you on how I do on my finals
