Can my GPA survive the Flu?

This week I've been very sick, but I still had school.  So it was an argument on whether I should stay and avoid contaminating others, or whether my GPA could survive me staying home.  And since my GPA wouldn't have survived, I went. And then there was one morning I felt particularly awful and I decided not to go.  I took some Ibuprofen and got back into bed.  Forty-five minutes later I woke up saying, "I feel great!  It's amazing what painkillers can do."  I did go to school and it went well, but as soon as I got home I was like, "Let me die!"

The Greatest Showman - a modern Opera

Recently, I had the absolute privilege of watching "The Greatest Showman" in the theater and I can not recommend it enough.  It has been a long time since I've seen a movie this compelling and I absolutely loved it. The music was  phenomenal and will continue to listen to the soundtrack through the next few weeks.   I loved this movie.  I loved it because it's about good people who don't lose themselves, but rather find themselves.  The one piece of advise I would give is this:  Don't think of it as a musical, think of it as an Opera.  Go see it, and go see it the theater.  There's an extra special treat if you do.
