He would make an "A"
If this class was called "Texting"
Instead of "Brit Lit"

Spends time on Facebook
Instead of proofing essay
"Hey -- quit nagging mom!"

Oh geek-mom how cool!
So glad Mudders see his worth!
How nice to be sure

DD did like Mudd
But math scores were much too low
Scripps does hold her heart

Hope that it will work
Positive energy does
Your support is great

Do you even know
last night as I tried to sleep
Haiku filled my brain

Thanks, historymom.
It really was a relief
to know so early.

He's so excited,
but now he must apply for
merit scholarships.

Tuition's crazy,
even with Mudd merit aid,
but it's his dream school.

Hates writing essays.
I have to keep pointing out
the pay rate per word!

A thousand bucks here,
and maybe five hundred there --
hey, it all adds up!

On application essays:

Girls are good at this.
Boys can't write about themselves.
Go [bleepin'] figure!

Harriet:

Now we are too poor.
stateside-bound, we wait for calls
hope she'll share her tales.

Irish boys are rude
D says, alcohol they push
try to get girls drunk!


D likes the old folks
gathering in pubs to sing
Love Americans!
