I get that people in (and some people not in) fraternities love them, but is a new member really front page news? Surely there's more interesting things happening around campus. That said, congratulations to Lucy Weasley.

I've heard that 20 isn't a very good age, you're not a teenager anymore but you're not 21 so some people don't really consider you to be an adult. Which means you're just stuck in some weird limbo age thing. Or something. That's just one opinion I've heard though. Personally, I don't think it feels any different, unless I actually think about the fact that I'm now 20, and I'm sure I'll get used to that soon enough. 

It is good that my birthday is close to parents weekend though! It means my parents can bring me presents when they come to visit, instead of me having to wait or going to pick them up myself.

Not only is it embarrassing, but slipping off a chair can really hurt. If it weren't for having to go to other classes I'd be tempted to stay in bed and drink tea all day. Sitting on chairs that aren't as comfortable as my mattress all day is going to be sort of painful.
