Mom: Why is everyone such a grouch today?
Me: Our moon is a waxing crescent, that makes the hobbits extra rowdy. We throw parties at the shire.

My Spanish teacher told us to write a short story...
He said it could be about anything we wanted, perferably about something that interested us.
So I wrote about Dan Radcliffe and Darren Criss in How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying on Broadway.

What if all of our textbooks were digital, and all we needed to carry around was our iPad? How would that change the way we learn? Suppose the new “digital textbooks” provided interactive resources, such as videos...
