Study for Hrothgar

I found this beautiful story on the interwebz. It's all about two extremely smart, witty, and good looking roommates who started a campaign during their Dead Week. They pledged to devote all of their time to studying for finals and really learning class material, making up for those nights earlier in the semester spent torrenting movies and learning dance moves on YouTube, in order to bounce back from a few undesirable scores and end the semester with stellar grades. And what better to rally around than the idea of a sweet, tender, loving, pet? After several phone calls with one of the amazing roommate's amazing mother, they had spoken promise that if grades were delivered, the two could MAYBE get a kitten for their apartment next year. "Maybe" was all these motivated and incredibly stylish women required: days were spent in the same positions in their living room, working practice problems and making flashcards, stopping only every once in a while to practice the Wop or belt out Broadway classics. When such motivated and clever young ladies put their minds to something, things work out. This case was no different. Grades were delivered, and it was time to start looking for the perfect kitten.

Unfortunately, one of the classy and fabulous roommates had plans to be out of the country for the summer and would be unable to meet the precious kitten when it was found. But these striking girls organized a Skype date across time zones, one rising early, the other staying up late, in order to come together as one, beautiful, sweet family.

Isn't that just the most precious thing?
