Original Plans For Tonight: Eat dinner from Gracie's in our room. Get ready. Go ice skating at 9:30 at Gordon Field House.
Actually Done Tonight: Ate waffles and yogurt from Gracie's in our dorm room while watching tv and talking. Hung around then Andrew stopped by for a while. We get dragged to a "woman's event" against our will.. This "women's event" is more specifically referred to as "Lighting the Way: Welcoming ceremony for new women students to RIT". Now don't get me wrong, they had this thing very well planned out, spent lots of time and energy on it but a "mandatory" thing doesn't really fly well around here. Plus it ruined the plans we've been making all week for our night out. The event consisted of 4 different "opening speakers" followed by a closing speech. I was rather amused how there was no middle to it. Afterwards we all paraded down the "quarter mile" behind bagpipes while all holding lanterns. I have to admit it looked kind of cool, however, it was nasty and rainy and misty (this rain mist stuff around here looks more like snow than rain-- it's AUGUST!). Walked back in our soaked pants from the huge puddles and now we've put on dry clothes. I think we're going to gather some people for a movie night or something after we run up and down the halls saying hi to people.
Tomorrow the college of imaging arts and sciences (CIAS) is all going to this art gallery in a giant in downtown Rochester. We get to sleep in until 8! Woohoo. Hopefully we'll get to bed before 3am for once. There's some job fair tomorrow morning at 9 and then the art gallery "field trip" is from 10am until 3pm. Hopefully I'll be able to take some pictures.
