Part of it has the student bubbling in circles that range from "Poor" to "Excellent" in response to questions about what kind of job the instructor did, and ont he back there are a few short response questions.

Around 12:30 AM, my phone was ringing off the hook. As most of you know, I go to bed around 10, and don;t like to be disturbed, so when my phone wouldn;t stop ringing I reach over without even opening my eyes and turned it off.

Some would consider my life rather boring. In fact, some people would say that my life is like a snail on a treadmill. It crawls along but still doesn't get anywhere. I am one of those people. So, as sad as it is, when I saw signs go up around the dorms advertising the annual Holiday Meal at the cafeteria, I was excited. I was ready to get out ( Read more... )
