Maybe you don’t go to hell for the things you do. Maybe you go to hell for the things you don’t do. The things you don’t finish.

Study Session 11/29

Hey SOULmates, because we know it’s going to be a rough two weeks coming up, in lieu of a normal meeting tomorrow night we’re just gonna do a chill study session. Come work on papers/projects/flash cards/whatever work you’ve got in this final stretch with us. We’ll bring the pizza and coloring to de-stress, you just bring your awesome selves (and whatever remains of your motivation/will to live). We’ll see you in Greenlaw 223 at the usual time, 7 pm.
