All I want for Christmas is yououououou.” [Editors note: Will and Meg saw Mariah Carey on Harbour Island during their Down Island Trip. They were enthusiastically singing this song in memory of their great adventure.]

Today was exciting. The beginning of the AP test series (consists of a brutally long day in a vehicle),  Human Ecology (life lessons from Remo Velardo), Literature (Omeros is so close to making sense, if you cut words off the page and then put them in different orders you can make something almost understandable), Histories (Preparing for a field adventure into the wilds of ancient plantations), Art (It’s self portrait time; some people dug holes to represent themselves – don’t read too deep into it), and Hamburger Day (We’re all alone on campus too, we usually only get burgers when Maxey is in town).

Every Tuesday our community gathers in the boathouse. During the past couple of meetings we have sent the hour discussing pressing issues and schedules for the week.

To get people moving, Continue reading
