TGIF! Let’s celebrate the end of a very hectic week. Shopping week is (alas) finally over, classes have actually begun, and you probably had section for the first time this week. But now it’s the weekend, and this is probably your last free weekend in a long long time. Throw aside that pset and toss aside your readings (but make sure you can still find them later) this weekend and engage in reckless frivolity that will hopefully be very cathartic. Or, at worst, send you straight to UHS.
