A Little Bit of Awesome: 12/11/2020 Edition

Dr. Brown is awesome, and his class wants him to know that. During an online class, every single student had their cameras off. Dr. Brown couldn’t understand why, until they all came on and every student held up a sign of appreciation for a great semester.

Speaking of awesome teachers, Emma Ginder is awesome. She was doing and online class for her third grade class, and decided to lighten the mood a bit.
It clearly worked, and Emma is clearly awesome.


Matt Goodman had an awesome 21st birthday. Matt’s dad passed away when Matt was 15, but he left a $10 bill becasue he wanted to buy Matt his first beer. So Matt did, and bought a Bud Light, because it was his dad’s favorite.
That alone is awesome, but the people at Budweiser heard about it and sent Matt eight more 30-packs. Plus, people from all over the world are now hitting him up on Venmo, trying to buy him a beer. So he’s asking them to donate to the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute instead. I told you. Awesome.
