Link. No, not that one.

Today, the Freshman class had to go in early. Why? Well, I'll walk you through what happened. We get there, then we go to the gym. In the gym, lined up on either side, were a whole bunch of upperclassmen, just cheering and going NUTS over us. I know they were trying to make us feel special, but honestly, I thought that it was just so stupid, that I couldn't help but smile. Then we found our name tags, and sat in the bleachers. They then called up 5 guys, 5 girls, and one link member of each sex. What they did was line the guys up in front of the girl, and vice versa. Anyway, they had to run up to the link member with a balloon, put the balloon between them, and hug, until it popped. I think it would have been way less awkward, had the girl and guy link members not been as mature as they are. You know how people are these days, going after people way older than them. Oh well.

After that, we divided into groups based on numbers on our name tags. Each group got 2 or 3 link members, and each group went to a different room to play get to know you games. After about half an hour of those, we began our tour. I, however, after practically growing up at the high school, didn't need this. We met in the gym shortly afterwards, (again) and sat in the bleachers. Suddenly, the woman that usually spoke to us was holding up a dollar. I was intrigued. Next thing I know, something horrible had happened.

She ripped up the dollar.

The first thing that came to mind was how illegal this was. Tearing up government property. How could she? Well, my friend Volsky (I'm referring to everyone from here on out by last name) picked up most of the pieces of the dollar. We had planned to tape it together later.

Well, we went through our schedule, having about 5 minutes in each class, and finally, afterwards, I got to go home. I think that the Link crew was just a bunch of girls, and non self respecting guys who tried to hard to make the freshman feel like idiots. I definitely want to be a part of it as soon as I can.

Day 0, Complete.
