What in the World???
I am just sitting here reading a peer reviewed journal article that was published and is used in real life. Trust me this is not for fun. Anyways, I just got done reading this sentence 17 times because the only thing I seem to remember is "of" when I am through reading it. Give it a try:
"The limitation of discussions of retention to long-term characteristics is necessary in large part by the scarcity of data on the course of retention over intervals of the order of magnitude of the time elapsing between successive repetitions of an acquisition study."
W.T.F???
Okay seriously, I feel like my eyes are crying blood. Please help!

A Tribute to Our Very Own Jenna Hotz
Our beloved Jenna is graduating on Sunday! While we're so happy for her, we're also saddened to lose her as an 'everyday' housemate. I say this because...
Jenna,
You're always going to be a Cherry House Girl, and even though you won't be sleeping here every single night, I look forward to the times when you will be here and we can have reunited kitchen dance parties, watch Precious, drink wine, and gossip. You're the greatest friend, sister, roommate, kitchen dancer, & chicken spaghetti maker, (shall I continue?) in the whole wide world! I hope you don't get a job and can just come and live with us forever.
Love always,
Elizabeth

So yesterday we were making our typical late night finals run to Whataburger at 12:30am and I was sitting in the back of the car and noticed something in the road. I told Liz to slow down because of that something that was in our lane ahead. She moved over to the next lane and slowed down, and when we got closer we realized it was an older woman who has no shoes on and is just wheeling her way around Grand Ave. going against the flow of traffic in an actual lane at 12:30 in the morning.
When we came back she was on our side this time, going with the flow of traffic. I tried to get a picture to show you guys but we were so freaked out we just sped by.
I hope that poor woman didn't need help. Honestly we're thinking she was cracked out on meth. We are the meth capital of the US afterall.
Maybe she should have been using this...

Sweetest Tea of Them All
Our sweet tea recipe here at the Cherry House ...
Ingredients:
6 Peach Tea bags
2 Mint Tea bags
Mint Leaves
Oranges
Sugar
Water
Ice
Directions:
Put a small pot of water on the stove with 2 cups of sugar (I know it sounds like a lot, but just go with it). Then let that come to a boil. Turn your temp to low and add your tea bags (8). Let that syrup steep for about 20 minutes. While your tea syrup is steeping cut up an orange into slices and prick a few leaves off your mint leaf plant. Remove tea bags, drain any excess into pot, discard tea bags. Then take a gallon size pitcher and add ice. Pour the tea syrup into the pitcher and then fill to the brim with fresh, filtered water (especially if you live in Sherman). Toss in your orange slices and tea leaves. Refrigerate until it becomes nice and cool.
Fill up your glass with some ice and enjoy!!!
Peace, Love, and Sweet Tea!
**Note: you can use any type of tea you'd like. We usually just use whatever we have, but this is a nice refreshing combo for Summer!

We are with heavy hearts to let you all know of the untimely passing of one of our dear professors' daughter. While some of us never had the privilege of meeting this sweet baby girl, we're confident that she was a blessing to all those who knew her for her short time on this earth. We know that she is in a better place now and Jesus is holding her in His arms.
Rest in sweet peace, little one.
Jesus said, "Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of God belongs to such as these."
Rest in sweet peace, little one.
