The weeks seem to be passing faster

By Franklin ⋅ November 16, 2009 ⋅ Post a comment

The weeks seem to be passing faster. Now that Thanksgiving break looms on the horizon, it’s hard to look at anything else. Thank goodness that all of the tests that are coming up are either at the last day of class or during finals week. In any case, life on campus has been pretty good [...]

Whoa that was a busy weekend!

By Franklin ⋅ October 25, 2009 ⋅ Post a comment

Whoa that was a busy weekend! Even though my family stayed home for family weekend, I still got a chance to meet the families of pretty much everyone in my residence hall. It’s quite a bit harder to get anything done when you’re constantly being asked “How do you like RPI?” and “Where’s the Union?” [...]

Busy weeks, RHA, rugby

Random Thought: Biotech’s fire alarm is going off—I wonder if it is a drill?
Three weeks into school and things are already in full swing. I’ve been so busy these past couple weeks that I have hardly had anytime to breathe, but I love the feeling of being involved. I’m on the Residence Hall Association Executive [...]

Random Thought: Why do the RedHawk Shuttle drivers listen to hip/hop? Does anyone else find this a little strange?
It is once again the start of a new year! But this time I’m a sophomore at Rensselaer, I know my way around campus, and I have a car. It is such a nice convenience having a [...]

Back to school and the studying whip is already out

By Marissa ⋅ September 8, 2009 ⋅ Post a comment

There’s nothing like getting back to listening to hilarious IEA professors crack open their daily Pepsi can to start their lectures on RPI’s few warm days. Back to school and the studying whip is already out. But, you know what, all summer I couldn’t wait to get back to the books. It’s tough being home [...]

Only a couple weeks left in summer

By Derek Y. ⋅ August 19, 2009 ⋅ Post a comment

As the school year really starts to get closer you start to realize how much stuff still needs to get done. I am going to be really busy these next couple of weeks. I have to continue and hopefully finish all the minor work that I have been doing on my apartment. I also have [...]

Preparing my room for this year?!

By Kristi ⋅ August 7, 2009 ⋅ Post a comment

Monday night, August 3rd, I went bowling with some of my sisters and friends from a fraternity on campus. It was dollar bowling night at Uncle Sam’s Bowling Lanes (right near the new residence hall called Blitman Commons) and it was so much fun except the fact that I am horrible at bowling.
Here is the [...]

Song Playing: Radiohead — Creep
I got my room for next year’s housing! I got a super single in E-Complex. Honestly, I really will miss living with some roommates.

Spring BBQ

By Christos ⋅ March 27, 2009 ⋅ Post a comment

Last weekend, my resident assistant hosted a BBQ event outside behind our residence hall. We grilled hamburgers, hotdogs, and for some corn. The food was great, the weather was nice, and a lot of people showed up. Here are some pictures.

Currently, I am not in New York and have traveled to the glorious town of Bridgeport, Conn. for an RHA Conference. For those of you who do not know, RHA is our school’s Residence Hall Association.
