Everyone! Everyone! It's Annie! I'm back, and really confused. I've been trying to catch up on what happened, but there was kind of a lot of stuff, and I can't even find a radio podcast from Sunday morning, and...

*chittering*

Aww, I think the squirrels are trying to write it out. How cute. So while they're doing that, let's get through these last notes of the semester!

SCHOOL

In Ethics, we had some time before class and I just got in on time. You guys would not believe my week last week. ...You probably have bigger complaints than I do, though. And then we had a final exam, and someone named Aeryn called Professor Skywalker.

Having flipped through some of the notes, there are a lot of names I don't recognize. Just getting that out there now.

Bringing Literature to Life- Through Violence! talked about celebrating success with a feast and sharing stories, and How to Survive the Zombie Apocalypse had to list three rules they learned and how they apply in Fandom. It just makes me feel better when a class gets a test.

Oh, good timing, the squirrels are done.

*papers rustling*

Uh, guys, why did you just scribble black stuff all over these papers?


DORMS

Moving on, it seemed like everyone was coming back to town. Like Juliet, who unpacked before class. Elle was being lazy until she got a call from Hayley, and Dane-er-is had a giggle fit at getting a message from home. Must have been a funny message. Petra heard about the message and had some complaints about the Ethics final, but then started talking about her birthday party. Which there was an email about. I'm so going. Chuck and Dane-er-is talked about the people from home who are back now, and she explained that her dragons are going to get huge at some point. What room is she in? I do not want to be directly under her when the dragons get huge. That's ceiling damage waiting to happen. Dave also came back, and Miley greeted him with hugs and stories about what happened while he was gone.

Great, now will someone fill me in? I'm going off notes here, and the squirrels can handle notes just fine, but actual storytelling? Eh.


TOWN

Mitchell got two visitors today: first a polar bear, and then Jack Priest, wanting to check in before he left town. They caught up, and Jack told him about getting to ride a luck dragon... I MISSED A LUCK DRAGON? I don't know what that is, but I don't care, it sounds cool! Adam and Sean checked up on each other at the lighthouse cottage, and Arthur was at the causeway with a new sword. Wait, that Arthur?

*chittering*

One day, Rilla. One day. So Katina came to talk to him about what they're going back to at home. Robin the Frog... okay... was dancing in the park, and Alice Cullen told him he's adorable. K-Mart- did I know there's someone out there named K-Mart?- was cleaning Nast Sporting Goods, and Cassidy got everything displayed at Book Haven. Good work, girls!

Jono was working on paperwork at the Boards, and guess what! Tickets for the holiday show are on sale! Miley dropped off his cat, and told him about confronting snakes in Special Collections, and also, Lady Gaga's headwear. Did she wear snakes while I was gone? I can see that happening. Dinah filled him in on what's going on in Jak-with-a-k's world, and Topher came to apologize for calling Jono Blue. That's something I never thought I'd say, for a few reasons.

Mary was back at the Arms, dealing with polar bears who wouldn't hand out Diet Coke. Come on, people. If a polar bear offers you Coke, you just take it. It's a polar bear. Arya checked up that everything's okay, too. Reportedly it is, so yay for that. Stark was collecting Coke in the park, but moved to the Perk when it got cold. Do they let you bring outside drinks in?

Oh, well I guess they do at JGOB, because Jaina brought polar bear-given Coke in, where she met Topher and found out about his fan club, and hugged Ben a lot. And Topher was glad not to see Ben disappeared anymore, and worried that Ender has been poisoned by Karla's cookies. I assume he hasn't, or I think the squirrels would be crying into their glitter flags.

Professor Pie decided the polar bears were throwing a party, so she went to it. Raven was looking up stuff from home on her computer at Dite's, and at Caritas, Kitty was trying to restock the bar but alcohol kept disappearing. The frog took the stage, and got a hot chocolate at the bar. Professor Gardner noted that Kitty didn't get scared off, and they talked about the spell on Caritas that makes violence not happen. I don't think anyone got punched to prove it. Jono and Kitty checked up on each other after everyting- whatever that was, and she told him how D&D turned out. What's D&D? Professor Hercules checked to make sure the frog wasn't a hallucination, which I think is reasonable.

That's all the news I have today. Now someone tell me what happened while I was gone? Please?
