It’s April! (News Round-up)

Here are the morning news stories of interest. Check back frequently throughout the day because it’s going to get longer. The catch: you decide which ones are really and which ones are fake (no you cannot feel them).

- Never turn a paper in late again.
- I hate stalkers, too.
- Bush nominated for Nobel Peace Prize
- The Web is Closing for Spring Cleaning
- Clinton didn’t pay health insurance bills
- 50 cent sees the light, realizes he’s black.
- Reusable? Who knew!

Ciao tutti

- Em

After a brief and unannounced Spring hiatus, I have returned. I have returned to new chairs in Ross dining hall, ever noisy Lacrosse neighbors, familiar yet surprisingly unwanted stacks of homework, an angry Democrat party, and shittier weather than the first day of Spring semester. Woo hoo!

So now, I sleep because the time between today and the day I return to SD for Charlie’s graduation party is exactly 2 days less than the time between when I returned to campus from Dominica/NYC and yesterday. Thus, I need my beauty rest for seven fun filled weeks of work, friends, parties, Italian sing-a-longs, orchestra, weekends, and general enjoyment of every moment because, come May 17, I will not be back Midd for nine months (my parole officer finally figured out that I left the State so I actually have to serve some time). And damn is it all going to go quickly.

So alas, tonight, instead of leaving you with more of me waxing poetic, I give you:

Spring Quidditch Round-up: Because We all Need to Know.

-A valiant effort on the part of CBS to make the game seem credible.
-A vid of Midd at Dartmouth. (Entertaining, but not the one to watch if you want to leave my blog asap)
-An actually non-condescending (not too much, at least) mention by Gawker.
-MUST READ: A favorable review from skeptical Princeton.
-AND A MUST WATCH: MTVu just got really cool. And so did Quidditch.
