There are so many but the ones that stand out were those from my senior year in Mr. Burges' English class. I learned plenty of Shakespeare and Victor Hugo despite being in a class of nothing but jocks. We managed to chase the majority of the ladies out of there by the end of the first 2 weeks. You learned to keep your books close at hand or risk them being thrown out the fourth floor window unto the stadium.

Nothing is ever as bad or as good as it appears. Just trust in God and give it your best; tomorrow will give you a fresh start.
