Thumbs Up:
Hey there Loyola, good job getting big names to come to our little school! First Spike Lee, and then Ron Paul this week? Keep up the good work so that maybe Loyola-Pa-Looza will have a band we know this year!
So President Obama spoke to Congress this week and told them about the state of the union and stuff. That's always a good thing, you know, the president talking with all the other guys in another big white building. Didn't really understand a word he said, but glad to see them hanging out for the night. I'm sure Jefferson would be proud to see the branches of the government kind of getting along. We only feel bad for the Housing and Urban Development Secretary, Shaun Donovan, the one cabinet member who had to miss out on all the fun. Everyone was clapping… it seemed like good times.
Loyola student, you deserve a round of applause. Rain, sleet, and in our case, snow cannot stop you from being prepared for the weekend and the possibility of unplowed roads. Let's quickly run through the normal check list:
·Canned food? Oops forgot that one.
·Batteries? Don't need them, everything is chargeable.
·Water bottles? Does a Nalgene count?
But seriously who needs that stuff when there's a cold 30 pack in the fridge?
Thumbs Down:
Dear fellow females: I know you've spent hours and hours getting ready. You straightened your hair… twice, you picked out the perfect eye shadow, and after hours, and multiple changes, you finally found the perfect outfit. Now listen. You look great but for the love of God, PUT ON A COAT! It is January. It is cold. They make fashionable jackets for a reason. Please, your outfit looks great but shivering like a scared Chihuahua ruins the whole look.
Now that January is over it is time to take a good long look in the mirror and think, "My new year's resolution will never happen." Sorry but if it hasn't happened yet, it is never going to happen. Go back to self loathing like the rest of us.
Raise your hand if you lost your phone this weekend. It sucks. In the words of "Forrest Gump," that's all I have to say about that.
