An Thank You Letter To Peeps

They're good for more than eating!

An Thank You Letter To Peeps

Dear Peeps,

While this might be a bit unusual, I just want to write a short thank you letter to you. Ever since I can remember, my family has had "Peep fights" at our Easter festivities. No matter if the whole family is there or if only a few could gather, it has always been a tradition of ours.

Some years, the fights consisted of hitting them with brooms out in the backyard to the opposing side. Other years consisted of the annual fight just randomly breaking out during dinner time. The best times are when no one knows who started it to begin with, but everyone just joins in on throwing, and also ducking, the flying Peeps.

Everyone, whether they be the youngest or the oldest person in the family, participates each year, and that makes it even better. I mean, who else's family besides ours is okay with people having Peeps chucked at them? Outsiders probably think we are crazy, but that's okay because we know we aren't!

So, thank you Peeps for all the memories I have had at Easter each year. I wouldn't laugh as much as I do or get an exercise in while eating lots of food if you weren't there each year for the annual Killilea peep fight.

Love,

The Peep fight instigator of 2016

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.
