Question of the Week #54

Present
"Present!" yelled Kimberly, just loud enough for her elderly home room teacher to hear her. After hearing her name called, she decided to tune everything out until first period. She had a lot on her mind and really didn't want to deal with anything until she absolutely had to. If she could have, she probably … Continue reading Present
For What Job Am I Best Suited?
I almost titled this post "What Job Am I Best Suited For?"

The Fugitive
One day last week, I woke up with the theme song from Where in the World Is Carmen Sandiego stuck in my head. If you grew up around the same time as me, it probably just got stuck in your head, too. It's that song by the group Rockapella from the PBS game show that … Continue reading The Fugitive
