Dr. Urgo's Birthday

I hopped on facebook last night and noticed that it was Jurgo's birthday!  Except now when I try to find his birthday I am unable.  It's possible that I imagined that I saw that it was his birthday, but I'm pretty sure yesterday was his birthday.  We should make him cards/cakes.

OH MY GOD OR POND HIM

Senior Events

Here are the upcoming senior events!  I will also comment on them (IN BOLD)!

January 31- February 3rd-  Class of 2011 Pint Glasses sold at the Campus Center Lunch (11-1) and Dinner (5-7) for $5  Woo pint glasses!  We already have too many but I will probably get one!

February 3rd- 100 days at the door. Come with your 2011 Pint Glass! Glasses will be sold at the door as well  Excellent!  Don't forget that this Thursday is 107 Days at the door.

February 18th- Cocktail Party at Brome Howard 7-9. This is a special event with 7 types of martinis and appetizers for $20/ person. This will get you 2 drinks plus food. Tickets will be sold through the Student Activities Office Feb 7th- TBD  Seems interesting, but 20$ could also buy two handles of Rikaloff.  Also no transportation.

March 24th- Graduation Fair in the ARC  DO NOT WANT

March 26th- This is the tentative date for 50 days at the state house. Time TBD  Should be cool, not sure what occurs at this event

April 25th- April 28th- This is the tentative week for a President's Reception at Urgo's home. Details are still be worked out. It is on several evenings since we cannot accommodate all of the Senior class at once. You and your friends should pick one day to attend.  Glad that we get to pick which day we go w/friends, but it's unfortunate we can't all go at one.  Should be real cool!

May 11th- Beach Day during Senior Week  woooo!

May 12- Gala at Brome Howard  Yesssss

May 13- Convocation and 8 wonders  ...what is the 8th wonder????

May 14- Graduation!!!!!!!  UGHHHHHH/WOOOOO!

Very informative email from Colleen O'Neil!

Out of Office Reply

Do you ever email administrators and get 'out of office auto replies'?  I got this response the other day from an email I sent January 20thish.

JULY 6TH

When two great powers combine...

Tomorrow, two great powers, Math Club and Board Gaming Club, will combine their powers by hosting a game night in DPC.  Who will survive this tsunami of nerdy/awesome pursuits?  There will be food/blood (via that movie about Upton Sinclair's book Oil).  


Actually I've always wanted to play Settles of Catan, it looks real cool.  I think you control a society and have to farm or something.  I don't know really.

Speaking of board games, last Monday we played Risk in my house (in honor of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.) and I almost won.  Apparently everyone else had set up secret alliances.  I successfully conquered Australia and Asia, but then Catherine steamrolled me.  le sigh.

Resident Assistant Applications

Applications to become an RA are due February 4th!  Many people don't realize, but I was once an RA, long ago (via sophomore year).  It was an interesting experience, and although I was not rehired (note that this is different from being fired) I think it was overall cool.  And Kelly and Derek are both pretty great and supportive.

But if you really like to go out every weekend it might not be the best career choice.

New Carpets in the Library

Library got new carpet!  I generally avoid the library (via avoiding work) so I only knew about this since I had to go to the faculty senate meeting this week (which is held in the library in a fancy room on the 2nd floor).  Library has a weird smell now, but the carpet is pretty.

Hope no one spills coffee/liquor on it.

LQ Bathrooms

If you intend to blow a guy in one of the LQ bathrooms on the top floor which have windows that face the main area, and there are dozens of people and PS officers outside, please put down the shades first so that everyone is not able to see.

REALTALK

Seahawk Basketball!

Went to the game on Wednesday and we won!  Basketball is a fun sport to watch.  I am glad we have a large cheering student section.  I sat behind the so that I was able to pretend to be an active cheerer, but not actually do anything.  I did bring my yellow foam finger though!

Game today at 4, good luck!

PANIC! Cook's Liquors Robbery

Apparently Cook's was burglarized a few nights ago.  According to Alexa Milroy, two packs of Newport Lights, some scratch-offs and a bottle of Jack Daniels was stolen.

Apparently, they were the dumbest criminals.  Why would you steal that!  Why not steal every bottle of patron and live like a king???

Anyway, please don't rob Cook's.
