A Busy Week

11/6/11
This week has been beyond busy. Monday and Tuesday were spent studying genetics and baking and baking and baking for SABA’s 3rd Annual Dress for Success Fashion Show. My roommates and I baked over 200 cupcakes and dozens of truffles for the reception after the show..

Wednesday was spent studying for tests later in the week and practicing for Knight Madness..
Thursday was KNIGHT MADNESS! If you are not from AU, Knight Madness is our one and only “pep rally” of the year, where the sports teams are introduced, faculty lose at basketball to students, clubs perform, and giveaways are in abundance! It’s just a fun night. I was SUPER nervous this year, though because the dance I am in for Knight Club was chosen to perform. This was my first ever dance with Knight Club, so my nerves were out of control. Luckily we all did a great job and the crowd loved it. The link below will take you to a video of our performance recorded by Emily Booth ’12 and choreographed by Katie Surdovel ’12.

And best of all, Friday I turned 20! When we arrived back home from Knight Madness, my roommates surprised me with gifts and cards. At my work study job, I was surprised with an ice cream cake. My mailbox was full of card from my family. That night my friend surprised me with yet another cake!
Saturday, my friend Nicole and I went on a trip to NYC sponsored by the Office of Student Engagement to see How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying. It was so good. We were a little disappointed that Daniel Radcliffe didn’t come out after the show. We then had dinner in Little Italy and did some shopping on Canal Street before heading back to AU.
