![]() I was just awarded Junior of the Year - it's a department prize, given out at the annual awards banquet, but considering that the English department is one of the biggest in school, it's an achievement. I was also awarded various prizes for my writing - fiction, non-fiction, and essays. It amounted to $500 overall. Nice little windfall. The thing that I'm most pleased with is the fact that I did this while putting a wedding together. BTW, that happens next Saturday.

If you want trouble, find yourself a redhead

You are a junior already - I remember when you were asking about whether you should go to College of the Ozarks. They grow up so fast.

Thanks, Mik. Remember, the young serve as a reminder of your mortality, so try not to hate me.

That is wonderful news, schindler. Congratulations to you, that is something to be very proud of. A rather nice wedding present, I'd say.

Doood, that is waaay cool. TNCR should have a requirement to join that you're talented in at least one area, otherwise you won't feel like you belong. Wait, that could come back to bite me. :lol: Congrats! |
