I Has Coffeeee


Coffeehouse was a blast on Thursday night. The turnout was obviously much greater than even the hosts expected. It was held in the school’s dining hall, whose walls seemed to buckle due to the large crowd. The theme for this years coffeehouse was a triathlon, because it was composed of three main parts. The first part was the showing of a “clean your room” video. The deans wanted a way to illustrate how the dorm students should clean their room, so at the beginning of the year they encouraged the students to make their own instructional videos. Creativity ran wild and instructions were bare minimum but it sure was fun to watch. I wanted to have the video to show everyone but I haven’t had a chance to ask the producer yet.

The second part was an assortment of skits performed by our theatrically inclined classmates. We were able to captures a little bit of the skits and we now make them available for your viewing pleasure.



Unfortunately we don’t have a camcorder so we couldn’t do any hardcore videotaping, just what could be done on our digital camera. The third event was an artwork judging. Every table in the room was lined with paper when we arrived and it was our duty, before and during the ceremonies, to doodle, draw and create whatever we could with crayons. A picture of the winner is featured at the top of the post. Here is what Katie and I drew.


That was the highlight of the end of our week. Saturday afternoon begins our weekend because we always work on Saturday morning. We are looking forward to relaxing this weekend and the beginning of next week because there are no classes Monday, Tuesday of Wednesday.

  1. It looks and sounds like the Coffeehouse event was a real hoot! I'm glad you all enjoyed it. I would love to see the cleaning video. I hope you get permission to at least post a link to it.

    Enjoy your break!
