Artificial Cherry

I grabbed some candy at the beginning of my day and kept it in my pocket to provide a snack periodically, potentially keeping my energy level up. By the time 5:40 rolled around,  I was sitting in N101 of Kingsbury anxiously waiting for my calculus teacher to get there to pass out the tests. I reached into my pocket and pulled out my last peace of candy: a dum-dum lollipop. How appropriate.
