About a month ago, I joined a group of student leaders for a dinner with President Webb and his wife.
As I was getting dressed up for dinner, I had a flashback to the last time I'd had dinner at the president's house.
I was a senior in high school coming to a dinner for incoming freshmen of the Louisiana Scholars' College.

I missed the Lyrid meteor shower yesterday.
In the middle of the night, dozens of meteors flew away from Lyra, my favorite constellation. The full moon probably made it hard to see some of the fainter fireballs, but astronomers all over the world were sipping espresso just before dawn, staring through the lenses of their telescopes, waiting for the pinpricks of light to streak across the sky.

After drying off from a cleansing hot shower, I throw on a freshly ironed polo shirt and some jeans and prepare for another wild weekend night in Natchitoches.
Not everyone who lives here would have the same opinion that I do about how much fun this city can be, and many students prefer to visit their hometowns on the weekend.

Silence is golden.
If you don't have something nice to say, don't say anything at all.
It is when you say nothing at all that the world is able to hear your outcries. When you hold it in and keep it to yourself, it solves all the problems. Sometimes it is just better to find something nice to say, it entices more answers.

The future is something I've never been able to deal with.
I try to plan for it, and most of the time, I can do all right, but that doesn't make it any less scary.
Take college for example. I'm going into my last full year of school starting in the fall.
