I'm still alive

Things here are going well, although quite hectic.
Let's see...last weekend, I went to see Michelle's marching band championships in Hershey. That was nice. Sunday was my percussion ensemble concert, which went well. Then, mom and dad and I went out for a nice dinner.
This week has been the Human Rights Film Festival my International Social Development class has been running. Tonight is the last night. So far we've averages about 45 people a night and have sold almost 40 tshirts (which I designed!) to raise money for Human Rights Watch. About $2.50 from each shirt purchase goes to HRW.
I've spent probably a good 15+ hours since Monday putting together a proposal for the Eastern Psychological Association Conference (and no, this didn't happen b/c I procrastinated.) Tara (my research advisor) told me last week I should submit, and I didn't finish collecting data until Friday, and started data analysis Monday. The upside of doing the proposal is a lot of work that I would've had to do for my thesis is done. The conference is in March at the Sheraton in Philadelphia just in case anyone's interested.
I still have a ton of work to do in the next couple weeks, so I'll continue to be busy. But of course, there are some fun things to look forward. There's an Honor's Holiday Banquet the week after Thanksgiving. Also, 4 of us in the psych department are graduating this December, so our profs want to take us all out to dinner finals week. That should be really nice.

Bartending the soda bar: cherry, vanilla, or chocolate coke anyone?

Halloween Weekend

Friday, I ended up working about 13 1/2 hours...didn't get home til almost 2am. That was a really long exhausting day. Alicia (one of our roommates from Greece who lives in Kansas) got here so her and Amanda went to Rockwells.
Saturday, we took her to Chocolate World in Hershey...always a great choice for out of towner entertainment...fun, free, and free chocolate! Can't go wrong with that. We then went to the Etown vs. Messiah soccer game (the biggest game of the year) at Messiah and ran into a few more people who went to Greece with us. It was a good game, but unfortunately, we lost. (It's ok, we beat them last night in the semifinals.) Then we went to some Halloween parties. Sunday, we just relaxed and did nothing until we took Alicia back to the airport, which was nice.
Here's some pics from Sat night: (Amanda was the devil with the blue dress on, Alicia was a "successful woman in the eyes of a man", Sara was a secretary, Jills was a mermaid, I was Marilyn Monroe, Courtney was from the 70s, and I have no idea what Joe was, but he was wearing sweatpants, and he never does that)
