A few words from my desk at the Temple Office of Publications:

I finished 99% of the work for my classes. The poetry project came out well enough. I made an audio CD of my poetry set to music. It was tons of fun to put together, lots of samples of drum and bass, Dr. Who theme music, Star Wars clips and just plain craziness. There were eight poems, a letter from a dude named Quincy and a final, quirky, out-take. I've always wanted to do something like this. The technology was free and the program was so simple to use. Anyone who knows how to cut and paste can make music on their computer. No keyboard or other instrument needed.

I'll put the finishing touches on my literature paper in a few minutes and have that handed in by the 4 PM deadline.

Tonight is a reading of the 2nd year Creative Writing sutdents. This is my one last chance to put on the Rick Show for my fellow-travellers. I intend to be rude and offensive to those who've pissed me off and kind and gentlemanly to those who'm I've liked.

Afterwards will come a drunken bloodbath at some local watering hole. Mild hang-over tomorrow.

I don't officially graduate until May 23rd.
