The Post You (or at Least I) Have Been Waiting For

Indeed, indeed. You are reading the writing of a non-student. Actually, I was done right at an hour before. Even my usual first-or-second-one-done wasn’t fast enough for me. I sped right through that test, not even stopping when my professor suggested I write a little bit more on the first page.
Nope, the moment my pen lifted from that page, I was gone. My mind was already thinking about all the things my non-student life would include: parties, reading for fun, marriage, children, vacations in far away lands…
and then my earring fell out in front of everyone else who was still taking the test. Definitely brings ya down to earth.
Besides, I wrote what I got. If you are going to give me more points for writing down unrelated things, I don’t want them.
Don’t worry though, I certainly received enough points to pass the class (I only needed a 52%). After all, I hear they don’t let people graduate if they fail a required class.
I did go out to celebrate afterwards with dinner at Old Chicago and several rounds of Diet Pepsi. Not my drink of choice, but it’s not my fault that these restaurants haven’t learned to cater to my every desire.
And yes, it made me feel good to end the post title with a preposition, even with all my learnin’.
