Mud Monsters and a Funny Video

I haven't posted in awhile, and that is due to one thing: End of the semester crunch time.  With less than 3 weeks of classes left (EEEEEK!), the work is piling on, and the weather is getting nicer. Its a vicious cycle. I so badly want to be outside frolicking in the sun, but I am left sitting in the study lounge with the window cracked.

Anyways, I found time today for a brief post.

My main relief from work is rugby.  The pitch is always muddy, and yesterday we made slip n' slides out of tackle bags.  I came back COVERED in mud. The words on my shirt were completely obscured. It. Was. AWESOME. We are playing games on the weekends, partying after, and generally having an all-around good time! I'm relishing the time with the seniors before they leave (sniff...) and they are all decomped and mostly stress-free!

*Note: Before graduating, each Allegheny student must complete a Senior Comp.  These range from extensive lab experiments, to case-studies, to 50-75 pages of fiction.  Comping seniors pull weekly all-nighters, cry frequently, and have been seen carrying jugs (literally milk jugs) of coffee to the library. When a senior is decomped, their comp has been handed in.

And this is for Bri. Last weekend, there was a dragshow on campus, and a boy that we went to high school with won it. It was phenomenal.
