...and make them into monsoons!

The Optimistic Ottoman has for sure been empty these last twenty-four hours. Speaking of which, I can't believe I have only been back for a day! Seems like ages... Anyway, I digress - back to the Optimistic Ottoman.

My professors have all been telling their students not to worry about homework due at the end of the semester because we probably won't be here anyway. It was crazy! I was expecting everything to be normal when we returned, but I guess not. Chances are pretty high that we will have a second evacuation. I haven't the slightest idea what that would entail; perhaps the semester will just end?

In that case, I would be heading over to the Negative Nook. I am really sorry to say it, and I feel selfish, but that would ensure that the flood is really ruining everything. So many events, concerts, exams, papers, etc. have been cancelled. I am honestly feeling as though I'm not learning as much this semester as I could.

However, I am super fortunate for all of the faculty and the community that will be leading me towards the Happy Hallway yet again. It is such a wonderful feeling to see the difference we are making in peoples' lives. I am looking forward to the day when this is all over and we can say that our efforts paid off. Happy Hallway, here we come!
