The first days--in pictures!



This was taken for the reception held after the SASHP attended Mary Doria Russell's lecture... yummy food and new friends! Us DRC ladies had a bus waiting for us so we got to leave early to FINALLY attend our first Douglass event--Bingo!

Our table didn't win anything, haha.

My roommate, Gabby, posing in front of the massive exodus to Neilson when the buses took too long.

How cool is that? I officially loved the marching band after this. RU Rah Rah!

This amused me very much. I can't remember who exactly he is--the real Scarlet Knight?! How cool is that?

Preparing for Throwdown! Our team was composed of four very tiny groups--Jameson H, Woodbury, Bunting-Cobb, and Henderson. Despite being tinier than any of the other dorms (whole), we won!!! :D It was a blast and it made me see how much DRC Pride everyone has, and how supportive we are of each other. It's a real community. You'd have to experience it to understand us :)

Involvement Fair! I am overwhelmed because I want to do EVERYTHING. EVERYTHING!

A sea of red at the first Rutgers home game! I had never been to a football game in my life until last Thursday, and it was actually really fun. I had no idea what was going on, but that was the first time I ever felt real unified "school pride" with everyone chanting the same things and cheering our team on to victory.

Being the dedicated English major that I am, I walked around both Douglass and College Ave to find the printing labs for when I need to print out the 230823098 pages of reading I'll eventually have to do. I found that the lovely Stacks in Alexander Library on College Ave = great place to concentrate. I LOVE libraries!

I went to the Zimmerli for the first time on Saturday. Museums (especially when they are free) are great. I am easily amused.

I hope you guys enjoyed this :D
Today is Labor Day--a.k.a. a day off to relax/organize/and readreadread.
I'm also going to the first day of Rush for a sorority tonight--I'll let you know how it all goes!

I'm glad I could help make such an awesome blog entry! =) And alex is THE BEST library on campus, theres 4 levels of those stacks. People get lost. They're never found again.

Glad you seem to be enjoying yourself and good luck with all the rushing events! You're going to do great (who couldn't like you?).

Cool pictures! I like this entry. I didn't really read the text, but the pictures were the main part anyway.
