Sometimes I do love this school.

elwenInterhovse was awesome. [Pictures to follow, as soon as I get some shots in the daylight.] A shame we weren't allowed to run up and down Relativity, but it made a great entrance piece. I didn't even realize that the faucet was being built; it came out beautifully. The dance floor was awesome, and completely packed with people. The tiers along the side was the coolest second story ever. The murals were beautiful, and the themed food was amazing. You'd think that the cultural themes we've had the past two years would be easier to cook for than Escher, but creativity wins in the end. Mobius strip cookies, tesselating jello, a chessboard made of brownies, they were almost too cool to eat.
I helped a bit with decorations for the dining hall. We made tons of paper cranes and some really cool polyhedra out of unit origami. We hung them from the ceiling and had blacklights that made them look really neat. There was also a mobius strip with ants on it, although I don't think it got enough of a spotlight.
This weekend was also MIT's "preview" weekend, and some Lloydies flew up there for some pranks -- or "hacks", as the MIT people call them. It sounds like a lot of Techers want a shirt, too. I wonder how many prefrosh will come next week who have one.
ETA: The site got slashdotted and so is currently down, but, um, you should see it when you can. Basically they handed out t-shirts that said "MIT" on the front and "because not everyone can go to Caltech" on the back. And they put inflatable palm trees everywhere and they released a balloon that said "C.I.T." on it and such.
