See the ‘N’ key? I’ve been using it a lot for the past few months. You’ve no doubt heard me say, “Nah, I can’t tonight. I have to finish a damn essay.” Or “Not until this school year is finally over.” Or “Negative ghostrider.” Okay, that last one; something my brother would say.

So here’s this post. It’s basically an apology for saying “No” to so many of you for the past few months. It’s also a little bit of a plea for sympathy.

You know what makes this all bearable though? I’m not alone in suffering through this year of nos, negatives, and nevers -alliteration FTW! Heather’s by my side pretty much everyday, enduring through an endless torrent of assignments with me. Essentially, there’s a bunch of you in the same boat as me and the boat is sinking super fast. But keep in mind my fellow studious sailors, the water is a warm blanket under which we rest at two in the afternoon after sleeping in on a sunny Tuesday afternoon. And we don’t drown. We graduate.

What I’m saying is, hey, I’m still your friend! You can call me and we’ll hang out…sometime.
