November 30:

Happy November 30th. The last day of November, the first day of the Christmas Season! Tonight was the Annual Christmas Tree lighting, we (students, staff, and faculty) gathered around the “fountain” in front of the library as we sang Christmas Carols, drank hot cocoa/cider, and talked. There weren’t too many people there because there was a basketball game, classes, etc. BUT the people that were there were super fun, and we had a blast.

So here is the part where I bring up the moment in the evening that makes it worth writing about, we were supposed to have a fun Christmas skit, with this guy lip syncing to a fast paced song with a bunch of “little kids” (me and friends) dancing around. But tragically the sound system freaked out on us and decided to depart quickly without even playing the CD! It was pretty hilarious, about five of us were standing mid-skit dressed like five year olds with pig-tails and stuffed animals. It was almost completely embarrassing, but a little too hilarious to let it bother us. People chuckled, conversations moved on and I proceeded to head up to the café to rub in the humiliation of my outstanding outfit. Luckily, most people just smiled and nodded at me, so it was ALL GOOD!

Now I am going to hit the books, and actually do some homework as apposed to distracting myself with pointless junk that as hard as I might try WILL NOT make me any smarter!
