Warning: This blog post is the 
result of what happens when you abandon your blog for a month. The 
"I-should-blog-that"'s pile up. So here it is...grab a cup of tea, and 
enjoy.





Lately I have been thinking about Captain Hook and the ticking crocodile.

So, lately this blog has been abandoned. 

One would think it is rather quiet...

And yet my life has been very full (hence the non-blogging). At this moment, I am procrastinating from a whole heck of a lot of homework, and thus, this blog post will be short.

The last three weeks?
* Christmas
* Manning snow day
* New Years "take 2" extravaganza
* New class
* Return of the student leaders
*
