I won the Lottery!!...

The World History with Prof Jensen Starbucks Lottery that is. lol. Every week Prof. Jensen (of World History class) collects names in a cup and draws out four to take to Starbucks with him later that afternoon. So, this afternoon when Ruth and I got to class we saw the cup out and pretty much ignored it. She said she needed a nap and shouldn't go and I figured that I wouldn't win it, besides- I don't like coffee. We get to our seats and I laugh and decide, "I'm going to do it- just because I know I won't win it- it's a fun thought." So I go down to the front table and put my name into the cup. When I got back to my seat, Ruth said, "You're going to win" I reminded her that I "never win anything" and she told me that I was going to win, just because I said that. He he. The Prof. came in and did the announcements, returned our last quiz to us and then picked up the Starbucks cup. Ruth leaned over and reminded me that I was going to win. I laughed and whispered back, "You know what's funny? I don't even like coffee"
"Samia!" Jensen said. "Our first Starbucks Lottery winner."
I had hardly even finished what I was saying. I was so shock I just said, "Seriously?", it was kind of weak and embarrassing. But that's okay- I won the Lottery...! So this afternoon at four thirty I meet Jensen and three other students and we went to Starbucks and then sat in the conference room and talked.
-For those of you who know Prof. Jensen- Yes, he is the same outside of the class. He's just an all around excited guy, I guess.-
So, like I said earlier- I don't like coffee. So what did I drink at starbucks? Something almost as good as mint chocolate chip ice cream. I'm not sure what it was called. I went onto their website before we went and looked to see if they had any coffee-free drinks. I think it was a... Chocolate, Mint Chocolate Chip Creme, with Whipped Cream... whatever it was... like I said, it was almost as good as ice cream and I hold ice cream in pretty high regard. Good job Starbucks!
Well, I just got back from a worship service where we were reminded to be focused on God and not put Him on the back burner- so, I'm going to go and read my bible and then do some homework... I'm so excited, I don't have anything due tomorrow, but I am going to try to get ahead anyway...
Tomorrow is Friday and so I love today, because it means that tomorrow is Friday, and Friday means that it's almost the week end...
