Shout-outs

#802 SO to #797. I can't even handle you. Someone else please explain.


#801 SO to #798. Wow, I've never seen someone so fired up about Latin before.


#800 TSO to my little sister for graduating 8th grade and knowing way more than the average incoming freshman at UW-Madison. She knows about pub crawls, ratemyprofessor, what the walk of shame is, and waiting till midnight for grades to show up at the end of the semester.


#799 SO to finding someone special this summer. U(nsure)SO to starting to fall for her already. Oh well, it'll be fun summer either way...


#798 ASO to #768. You know what? You're right. Latin's entirely irrelevant to modern life. Except in chemistry, I guess. Oh, and biology, too—the taxonomies are almost exclusively Greek and Latinate. And since 60% of all English words are Latin loan words, I suppose it's relevant to etymology. And foreign language! Of course! How could I have forgotten that 800 million people worldwide speak languages directly descended from Latin? I'd ask if you're pissed at Latin just because you didn't graduate cum laude, but then I'd have to write another ASO to explain what "cum laude" means.


#797 ASO to being a girl in the weight room at the SERF. You all are intimidating as hell. Are the stares because I'm hideously ugly or is it that weird that there's a girl lifting?


#796 ASO to it being the time of year where everyone brags about their GPAs and screenshots their grades....


#795 SO to the girl who jumped my car. Thank you soooo much!! Enjoy your 21st birthday!


#794 SO to the blonde at the financial aid office. You are adorable!! See ya around.


#793 LOLSO to all those girls that were super "popular" in high school. After seeing all of your lives peak in high school, it's kind of amusing watching you fail in the real world.
