High School Transcript
I just bought tickets for Zumanity for Feb 16th. But really I’m posting to list my grades from high school, the transcript for which I received today. It’s kind of messy but I’ll try to make it make sense.

Give Us Money
My alumni giving association has put out the best “give us money” letter I have ever seen. The envelope had the phrase “Had your fill of winter blahs?” in fake handwriting on the cover, but it was the inside that made it so cool. Note that I have typed this in verbatim.
Reunion Time
I am hoping to attend if it doesn’t cost too much money, but I probably won’t know many people there. Still, I remember my friends well, and I’d love to see them again. Continue reading
