Mascot

...you and Anne will be skipping classes the entire week (don't worry, i won't tell the professors/instructors) and you'll be squad-less this yr (not assigned to help any squad??):confused:..If so, that'll be groovy, as you'll get a chance to watch the actions and probably mingle with the players then..;)
 
^^Hmm..^^

..i won't be surprised if your facebook friends multiply after this Denmark Open..;)...Btw, you sure you can handle that many players?? Are you THE ONLY LO for this Denmark Open??..:confused::p

there's many LOs for this year's denmark open like last year, but very few of them are as experienced as me and anne. :p
 
^^So..^^

..with the absence of so many players, which players are you especially looking forward and eager to meet, mingle and hang out with??..:confused: ;)
 
^^I know..^^

..just checking to see how excited you are...;)(i'll say i have to give you a 9.5 out of 10 in the excitement level..:cool:..all the textbooks, study materials being put away..;))
 
Nudge, nudge..
