Thank you all so much!!!!!! I flipped out last night when I saw that I won (screamed and kind of cried as I jumped around in my room hugging my roommate). I am so excited for this and I appreciate all of the wonderful things that people have been saying about my story. All of the entries were so interesting, I was so worried, and so honoured to make the top 10. Ahhh!!! I can't believe this is happening!!!!!

Exam time. bleh. the other day, my friend and I had a facebook conversation in iambic pentameter. enjoy :P
          Me: Two mugs of tea down, with more to be made,
          Lamentation, procrastination and woe,
          I sit at my desk and watch the sun fade,
          Along with my hopes, two exams t'morrow
          
          Rob:  Exams are brutally undoing me.
          Each pen stroke feels like dying but with ink.
          The bubbles taunt me with their shininess. (<-that's a word!)
          "We might be wrong! You'll never know!" they cry.
          This Christmas break will be my sweet release
          If it's not awesome I'll be fucking pissed.
          ♥
          Me: Middle English will bring me to my knees.
          Accurs’d words with nonsensical spelling,
          Which I must read aloud to comprehend.
          Why must Chaucer be quite so cumbersome?
          Tell me why must many of the long lines,
          Poetic paragraphs and soft speeches,
          In ancient anonymously authored
          Arthurian legends alliterate ?
