a little psycho

 




Hey, how's everyone's week going? 


Better than Lillie's I hope!





Tutor Boss asked all us tutors to double check with our students to confirm their sessions since this is the last week of the semester as they head to finals. 

It's a mix. Some are raring to go, some just want it over. 

I have a vague recollection of finals time during my undergrad years. One year worked out particularly nicely because my roommate made hella messes when she was stressed, and I fell into clean freak mode when I was stressed. Perfect combination! 

She studied while trashing the place, I studied while cleaning. We rocked those finals, and our apartment got a sort of makeover.

We're busy over in testing as per usual this time of year. Then, after Monday, things will quiet down. I'm on the lookout for a white elephant gift for our party scheduled for next Wednesday. We looked up the meaning and origin of "white elephant"

"white elephant \WYTE-EL-uh-funt\ noun. 1 : a property requiring much care and expense and yielding little profit."


Well, that covers a whole gamut. 

I'm on a mission, much like this goose friend I encounted on a recent morning.


I don't know the goose's mission, but it was on it like a boss.

I do love your white elephant gift practice. Enjoy!

Either that, or the goose is plenty mad about something, and you don't want to cross it. It looks it's ready to kick some tail...

“We don’t need to meet.”
Lol, no kidding!

I could help you with a white elephant from my thrift store if only you were nearby. We’ve got some doozies

Liz, I actually made out relatively well last year. We'll see what happens!

John, I gave that goose lots of space.

Fresca, Oooh, wonderful idea! Yet... so far away.
