What if tomorrow bring, sorrow or anything, other than joy.
What if't be wintry chill, rain, storm, or summer's thrill?
Tomorrow's the future still,
This is today.
Tomorrow's the future still,
This is TO-DAY!
Doesn't winter seem more like archiving season?

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
The only thing I remember about my college alma mater is that there's a line about sorrows being as transient as April's Brief Showers and we all had to try not to laugh in the middle of graduation because it rains ALL THE FUCKING TIME in April.
Also, that was the first time I ever heard the thing.
The fight song, everyone knew the drinkified words better than the official ones. Note: Not a school known for much in the way of "fight".

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I googled to confirm, and apparently we got a less silly (but still a little silly) "college song" after I graduated. Huh.

Do y'all KNOW your college's alma mater? I know...the TUNE to mine, because I was in the pep band and we had to play it. But I don't think anyone but some few people in one of the choirs knows the words!
Please, when else do you get to say "swift Potomac's lovely daughter"? Of course, I probably only know it because I was in the bicentennial class and it was played all the time that year.

Actually, we usually sang it in our heads as "Hail to Georgetown alma mater/sacrifice your sons and daughters/pay us thirty thousand dollars/each and every year..." :) I'm sure the price has gone up since...
But when you have such a silly fight song ("it's been so long since last we met/lie down forever lie down"), who needs silly alma mater?

Are you sure that's the fight song? And not, say, the hookup song?

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Bennington had no alma mater, or fight song for that matter, or school colors or sports teams. We did have a gamelon orchestra with handmade instruments and a contact improv dance troupe, though. We put the artsy in artsy-fartsy.

TJ's indian masala burgers are delicious but not at all like a burger- more of a delightfully junky spiced patty.
Yay! I bought these, as well as the Morningstar tomato and basil pizza burgers and the Morningstar breakfast sausage patty as well.
Oh, and here's my college fight song lyrics--talk about inane:
Ring out, Ahoya, with an MU rah-rah
MU rah-rah
MU rah-rah-rah-rah-rah
Ring out, Ahoya, with an MU rah-rah
MU rah-rah for old Marquette!
