Federal holiday
I thought MLK day was a federal holiday? Why is the mail truck out and about? And did anyone else know there are debates about whether it should or shouldn’t be a holiday?

Last semester
I’m so excited and nervous to graduate in May. I can’t wait for the next phase in my life.

So long and thanks for all the fish
My new locker at the Rec Center comes equipped with a towel. Now that I can be warm as I explore the moons of Jaglan Beta, all I need to do is meet up with Ford Perfect.

Seahawk territory
One of my friends is from New England and she became a converted Seahawks fan after watching the NFC Championship game against the Packers. She immediately regretted her decision, when the Patriots beat the Colts later that day. Glad I’m not her right now.

C’mon
When did Seattle news stations become the marketing team for the Seahawks? With Facebook statuses like “We’re going to the Super Bowl,” and “Hawks win!!! I believe,” you have successfully sold out for cheap likes. Way to crap on your objectivity.

The New England Deflatriots apparently crushed the Colts in the NFL Playoffs by using deflated footballs. I guess they couldn’t handle the … pressure … of such a high-profile football game.

Go Hawks
I almost cried at the end of that game. Still can’t believe it.

I’m happy with the president’s are of the Union address last night. The middle class needs a lot of his proposals to take effect.

It’s days like Tuesday that I’m glad this Twitter account exists.
