Dear Friend,
I don't think this college thing is for me. I loved the partying part of it, but the studying and exams were stressful!
I made a snowman though.
Finals for the two terms were coming up in a few days. Margaret was trying to help me study but I was still struggling.
I walked in the dorm with something that was going to solve all of my problems.
"Lucas! What is that?!" Margaret asked taking it out of my hands.
"Um, just a letter from home." I said.
She looked inside and gasped.
"Lucas! It's the exam answers?!" She shrieked.
"Yeah..." I said feeling like I was being scolded.
"I have been helping you study! So why do you need to cheat?!" She asked.
"Think of it as a back up plan! Just in case I blank when I get the test!" I told her.
"You know what, I'm going to go eat something and then we are going to study some more." She said.
I sighed.
So I decided to go practice my street art skill.
"Lucas we were suppose to study after I ate, I looked for you but you were no where to be found!" Margaret said.
"I just needed to get some air, this school thing is stressing me out." I told her.
"Lucas please try to pass this exam without the cheat sheet! I am willing to work with you, please let me help you." She said.
"I'm trying Margaret, but I cant seem to focus!" I said.
She sighed, "Do you want my help or not?"
"Yes." I said.
I didn't have the heart to tell her I was a hopeless case, but if she wanted to try and help me I would let her. What could it hurt?
I stopped by the store after my night class and picked up some flowers for her.
"For you." I said handing them to her.
"What's this for?" She asked.
"Helping me study, and for being an amazing girlfriend." I said.
"Aw!" She said smiling.
"Wait! Did you say girlfriend?" She asked.
"If you want to be." I said.
"Of course I do!" She said kissing me.
"We should get studying." She whispered.
Word of the day: Study.
Ugh.
Love always,
Lucas
Lucas is struggling. Can Margaret help him pass? Or will be be back at the university next semester? Or worse, drop out... Let me know what you think!
