There is no sugar-coating it or getting around it. I'm really, really bad. There are a lot of contributing factors here. One could be that I have NEVER taken Spanish in my life.

I have to say Longwood has some of the prettiest foliage! This is definitely my favorite time to give tours on campus. I love to show off the beautiful sites. These past few weeks have been so busy. Oktoberfest was an absolute blast! I had so much fun...

When you come for a tour, we are the people who will show you around campus and tell you lots of funny stories about our experiences here. We have meeting every other week and we usually have a theme for the meetings. This...

This just means that the friend decorates their graduation cap for them and puts it on them at the ceremony. Also, the cap is supposed to be a secret and the cappee is not supposed to see it. Well, Sara hadn't...

I got up to get ready for class and then I decided to get on Facebook really quickly just to be nosy. I happened to see a status about how some girl's math class was canceled. "Lucky..", I grumbled.
