The ring with Super powers!

Well I have been busy with schoolwork (not a word of a lie) pretty much since classes have started. It feels completely overwhelming in a very scary way, but I think that is just what fourth year is supposed to feel like. Even though i have one less physical class in my schedule, I actually am busier than I've ever been before. I do work at the library almost every day and do readings every night. I'm doing about as much as I can to stay above water... agghh. Mostly everyone is in the same boat so that is really nice, at least we can all suffer together.
But of course fourth year has its perks for certain, aka X-RING!! I got my eligibility form, and thank goodness I'm eligible for one. haha so now everyone is a buzz about what face size they'll have on their ring and the ultimate question; yellow gold or white gold? I know I'm going with yellow gold, but some people are having an internal battle as they decide whether to get the traditional colour gold or one that they can wear with all of their other jewelry. I think that the X ring as a piece isn't exactly fashionable, so its not really that concerning whether it matches everything else or not. Then there is considering 14k 10k or the super crazy expensive "handcrafted" something or other rings that go for about 2000. I say, they put the special super powers in those ones, because for that price you need something amazingly special about your ring.
Well, its off to TSG and then endless readings! (on the plus side I'm off to see Signal Hill tonight!! Weooo!)

I can not believe it is X ring time. It is amazing how fast time goes. I remember so clearly, your first year... in Burke.. you on third floor and Scott on the stinky and Sticky second floor. All the buzz about when you got your X ring in like 1200 days... geesh... I can't believe it will be in under 100 days now.
