Oh indeed Karen
The hasty escape is key
crutches a hazard

Can't Buy Me Love is
the prank's cinematitic source
Sigh...Patrick Dempsey

Was this stolen?
Or did High School Life steal it?
We have haiku too!

I was not aware
I had to count syllables
In my past haikus.

I must use foul words
to express disappointment
Juvenile, it's true

D is waitlisted
Like she asked a boy to prom
but he won't commit

He wants to know which
Other girls he can dance with
Before choosing her

Metaphor aside
If they freaking can't see worth
hitting their faces

I'll just keep my checks
Away from their darn coffers
Pearls before the swine


(man did that make me feel better )

Your d's worth more than
An admissions committee's
Entry equation!

Waitlists be damned!
They are not worth her remorse
She's better than that!

Those historytwins

NUTS TO THE WAITLIST!

Thinking this morning
What happened to the haiku?
And here hist'ry is!

I think Scripps is wrong
Don't wanna go anyway
Something better waits

No time for regret
Upward and onward she goes
Loving her future

l o l my frends
she stood over my sholder
reading that epic

Her smile lit the room
her giggle music to hear
hope she tells them "no"

There are many paths
That all lead to a single
Successful future.

Your daughter will find
A path that suits her just fine
To fulfilling end.

There are lots of boys
For dance and conversation
At everyone's prom :-)

Good luck to your kids
In the next ten scary days
That skake CC world.

I hope in the end
Every CC parent
Will be at peace.
