THE CLEVES LIST OF AWESOME - PART 1

For Christmas this year I got a really fun book called 'The Book of Awesome'. It is a huge list of every day things and events that are so simple but we take for granted. Often they are things we don't notice but we should because they are awesome! That gave me the idea to compose the following....The first Cleves list of Awesome.....and to change it up I did it in rhyme!!

I get in my car in the morning to come to work each day

I pull up in front of the office and it smells great I must say,

From the bakery I can smell today's fantastic baked treat

And also from the kitchen wafts the smell of smoky meat!

AWESOME

The time for lunch in the staff dining room has finally come

There can be times when it's unclear where it comes from,

But you swing open the back door and there to meet ya

Is the coldest milk in the world and amazing homemade pizza!

AWESOME

You pull in front of the office that first day keen and all ready to go

You're about to meet your roomies, none of whom you even know,

Time flashes by so quickly and the best summer ever ends

You are bawling and saying goodbye to you new lifelong friends!

AWESOME

When I turn the light off the last thing that comes to my mind

Is what in eight hours on my desk in the morning I'll find,

The best possible thing ever that could happen to me

Is a boring, one page night report waiting for me to see!

AWESOME

Your staff account has opened and your finally nineteen

You head to the club to jump headfirst into the scene,

The night is so fun, you bought and drank a ton

The next day you account is cut off ooooh that's not so fun!

AWESOME

It's taken a while to learn how to never cause the team harm

You've figured out down to the second, when to set your alarm,

You throw on your uniform and put your hair up in the morning

You arrive in the dr exactly on time, another day with no warning!

AWESOME

Last night was Tuesday and you partied really hard at Cleves

Your body needs the day to go quickly, you even beg and say please,

When suddenly you realize something great, its the BBQ night

Your guests are all going, your name on the 'OFF list' is the best sight!

AWESOME

It's the biggest bar night of the summer and of course work you must

Every one of your friends and roomies went, they just left on the bus,

The Rosseau Room is dead, hardly any Guests came down at all,

So you are let go early and you race to meet your friends for last call!

AWESOME

One of the best things that happens to me year after year

Is when staff come to my office to share stories and talk off my ear,

This is when I'm told all of the gossip, and people should beware

The best stories I've heard are by people in that pink leather chair!

AWESOME

You've worked really hard all summer and can't believe it's almost gone

You've dragged you ass for the last while when on you it does dawn

For the last few months while you were partying, working and romancing

It hits you like a ton of bricks, you just starred in 'Dirty Dancing'!

AWESOME
