The 8 Best Things About Walk-Out Day

1. Surprise!!


WHAT IS HAPPENING??? What a shock it was for a freshman like myself! Suddenly hearing someone banging a cowbell during band rehearsal when there shouldn't be cowbell, then realizing that, actually, someone was standing by the door banging a small pot and shouting "walk out walk out!!", got my heart pumping a little faster. My face must have been "picture perfect shock."

2. No classes, you say???

Ooo-hooo-hooo! I wonder how many things I can get done today... For a extreme non-procrastinator, today has become a "get ahead in class" free card.

3. Wait... Are we supposed to be doing this? (again, for us newbies)

(Sherlock's face at the end though bro is like "seriously? Don't care, get over it.")

Dont worry! Turns out that the walk out today was totally legal and even planned by the president and coaches! I had never done anything like this, nothing of sort, so following the crowd and going with the flow was definitely a thrill, something that doesn't happen every day in my every day life.

4. FREEDOM!!

Not only do we get out of class (and have an extra chance to relieve school/homework/test stress), now we get free bowling AND free lunch?? And not just any lunch, but Chick-fi-la! Score, win-sauce!!

5. Chick-fil-a

I think that most of us will agree that Chick-fi-la is so special and amazing that they deserve their own point. The chicken sandwich boxes were on point! I had been craving chicken for the past week, they were really delicious.

6. Nap time....

Sleep. Enough said.

7. Lounge and Laze

My favorite L words (after lollipop because it's so fun to say), and my favorite Saturday activity. That is, when I have the chance. Grab some snacks and a movie or a book and settle under folds of a heavy blanket. In my opinion, Golden Grahams and fig newtons, the movie Jason Bourne: Bourne Identity or any of the Ranger's Apprentice books, and my wonderful fuzzy blanket an adult friend of mine gave me. She was my faculty prayer partner from high school.

8. Stay Inside

Maybe you got to stay inside for most of the day, except for the yummy Chick-fi-la lunch. Maybe you had to go out a few more times.... for dinner or practices. But it sure is nice to stay inside where it's warm, today was rather cold!

I am going to a rhyme without reason date function and I have looked at so many different rhyming words and I figured there need to be a new list of words. At these functions, there are usually at least two rockers and boxers and an umpteenth amount of dogs and frogs. I have come up with a list of creative and unique ideas for these functions.

If you like what you see, get a shopping cart going with these costumes.

Epic Creation Myths: Norse Origins Unveiled

What happened in the beginning, and how the heavens were set in motion.

The Norse Creation Myth

Now, I have the everlasting joy of explaining the Norse creation myth. To be honest, it can be a bit kooky, so talking about it is always fun. The entire cosmos is included in this creation myth, not just the earth but the sun and the moon as well. This will be a short retelling, a summary of the creation myth, somewhat like I did with Hermod's ride to Hel.

8tracks radio

We all scroll through the radio stations in the car every once in a while, whether its because we lost signal to our favorite one or we are just bored with the same ol' songs every day. You know when you're going through and you hear a song where you're just like "I forgot this existed!" and before you know it, you're singing every word? Yeah, me too. Like, 95% of the time. If you're like me and LOVE some good throwback music, here's a list of songs from every genre that have gotten lost in time, but never truly forgotten.
