Wartburg has this awesome day (almost like a holiday) where all classes for that day are cancelled. The student body president and President for the whole school pick a date and keep it a secret until the day finally comes. On this day, a group of people will go around banging on our doors at the wee hours of the morning announcing the day as Outfly. Now for the day to actually be declared Outfly at least two-thirds of the student body has to show up at the bell outside the W at 6:00 in the morning. At first that doesn't sound like a whole lot of fun but then you realize that you have the rest of the day to do whatever you want which could include sleeping. A supposed tradition of the students is to go get piercings and tattoos (not required but quite common). Anyways Outfly tends to fall in October before Homecoming or so I'm told. Well this week just happens to be the week before Homecoming so starting Sunday everyone was trying to predict what day it was going to be. First it was Monday, then Tuesday, then Wednesday, and now that Thursday is the last day of this week it could possibly be they for sure think it is then. I'm not going to lie, every morning this week that my alarm clock has woken me up instead of a knocking on my door and a yelling of Outfly I have been disappointed. :) I don't know why I get so bummed about it though because honestly I don't know what I would do on Outfly. I don't want any new piercings and I definitely do not want a tattoo (I don't have a high enough pain tolerance). I most likely would get some sleep and get my homework done. Also since I am part of the track team we have a work out to do but we can do it on our own time whenever we want so that would be a definite bonus. Another huge plus for having it on Thursday would be that it's my birthday so it'd be nice to have a day off to not have to worry about school sooo much. Well I'm going to head to bed. Who knows, I might have to get up tomorrow morning at 6!
