I have an idea I’ve been working on for a while, so I’m going to try my luck if I have time. Now that I’m back home, I can spend it doing something more productive now — because we all know, when you’re a senior in college, and you already have a job lined up — you do not care about classes. Good luck to all!

Grand Prize:
