I have very important exams tomorrow at nine o'clock. As I have been studying, the only time I was out of my house today was to pick up dinner at Gourmet Heaven, which is the local sort of overpriced convenience store with buffet that I imagine attends upon most universities (they sell four different brands of paper plate and a whole wall of Japanese snacks that I have never dared try, although I eye the crab chips every time I walk out). I hadn't seen anyone else all day. I'd barely answered e-mails. I'd been reading.

And I walked in tonight to locate some hot food, and sitting there at one of the little tables was someone I care for dearly, who lives in a different state and whom I hadn't seen in somewhere around three weeks, with a sheaf of roses, a good-luck card, and a plate of hamentashn.

That is what good friends are worth.

Good luck (and many hopes that you will not need to depend on luck at all)! And a bunch of major brownie points for your friend.
