Sept 1988:
BSU finally got with the program and went to a semester system, instead of a quarter system. Since my sister had now joined me on campus, I was determined, once and for all, to graduate this year, as we were both on the 'parental scholarship'.
I was still working at the country club, but my schedule was hectic. In fact, before I'd left on vacation, I'd told my boss that I could only work on Wednesdays, besides the weekend, since I had night classes Mon, Tues, and Thurs. She'd huffed, "I'm no longer hiring college students!", but we knew she'd get over it.
Toga, Toga!
We made friends with the girls across the hall, and they invited us to a toga party downstairs. EY and I wrapped ourselves in bed sheets, and had a blast!
Politics:
My sister decided to run for Student Senate, so EY and I plastered posters all over our dorm, and talked to any freshman we met to vote for her. The night of the election, I called her to see if she'd heard anything, and she verbally took my head off.
Being the nice sister I am, I recognized the fact she was stressed, and probably hadn't eaten anything, so I ordered her a pizza. Just before EY and I walked out the door to intercept the Domino's delivery man at her dorm, she called to say she'd won, and then asked if I'd take her to get something to eat. I laughed and told her about the pizza! We toasted her success, and laughed about her anecdote about offering the football quarterback a 'safe escort' back to campus, since 'he could get raped'.
Next Month: I get to see Saturn!

Present Day:
I'm off to Eminence Harvest Festival tomorrow! Then back to Mom's for a day or two, to help with 'Operation Bug Extermination'. Dad refused to let me come yesterday, since the new bed mattresses won't be delivered until later this month, but he did agree to let us come help move everything back IN!
