Way back in the last millennium, I was a mere freshman at Purdue, around the holidays I put together a “Twelve Days of Purdue,” set to the tune of “Twelve Days of Christmas.” It’s not a perfect fit, but it does make me laugh thinking back. So enjoy. Merry Christmas.
On the first day of Purdue, my true love gave to me:
A walk through the fountain
Two long walks
Three hour labs
Four hours of sleep
Five big exams
Six hours of homework
Seven classes waitin
Eight TAs babling
Nine different projects
Ten profs a grumbling
Eleven days of grilled cheese
Twelve migranes drumming
Mixed-up Confusion
