School's out for WINTER

I hope everyone has a fabulous break! The dorms officially closed yesterday at seven PM!

They do not open again till January 11th at nine AM. You will not be allowed to enter the halls until that time, so don't even bother trying. Ha.... For t

hose of you who know me... know how ironic this is.. Seeing as how my flight gets in at 5:30 AM and I will be at school by 6:30 Am that day... WHAT am I supposed to do till nine in the morning??? Sit outside in the snow? Um, no thank you. I'm getting in... Somehow. I am not sure yet though how exactly I will accomplish this task. 

Well it has been a good semester you guys. I hope everyone remembers that we are having a semi formal in February, so bring back that dress that you want to wear! It is going to be located at the Lenox Hotel.

Dancing is fun! Look at Laura dancing! Doesn't this picture just make you want to go to the semi formal? I think it does!!

Also remember to support the mens volleyball team when you come back in January! 

Good bye for now! (I most likely will not be continuing this blog next semester because my class is over..... But I hope it was enjoyed and helpful to you over the past three weeks!)

And The Winner is...

Me? Haha.

Well, considering not that  many people actually showed up.... Maybe I am not actually that good at Rock Paper Scissors, but somehow I managed to win the fabulous competition. Haha. I really believe that more people need to show up to our schools events and our RA's programs. Honestly, they aren't bad and the more the merrier, right? 

And on that note...

Help support our schools fashion club! They are still selling raffle tickets and the prize is two tickets to the Celtics game in March! You can pay two dollars, I 

believe, for 5 tickets, 5 dollars for ten tickets or ten dollars for an arms length of tickets. 

You can also purchase a Tee-Shirt to help the fashion club raise money!

ROE SHAM BOE

Break from finals! Break from finals!!! Tim the RA is having a program tonight, for all those who attend you have a chance of winning either, a gift card to CVS, Applebee's, or Roggies.  All you have to do is win the Rock Paper Scissors competition. Although I would like to point out that those of us NOT from the east coast call this game Roe Sham Boe.... I don't understand why NO one here has ever heard it called that before. 

Come and have fun procrastinating tonight at 9!! 

I will let you know how it goes!

Pancakes for Dinner?

Getting worn out from all that studying that has been going down in your room? Take a break, relax, and enjoy something to eat tonight! At breakfast by moonlight! Tonight at ten PM come on over to the cafe and enjoy a tasty breakfast served to you by the faculty and staff! It should be a fun time! 

Have any extra cash? Or just want to spend some?

Do you love new clothes?

I know I do...

Well then, you are in luck! There is a holiday shopping trip to New York City.  December 6th! (also Felicia Jone's birthday!) It is $20 per person, you get to travel on over to NYC for the day.  Everybody gets together in the morning and they plan to hit the road at 7AM.  You all get to New York City and get to go shopping! Seriously, who wouldn't want to do that? Well... Maybe excluding most guys...But really? You get to go shopping! And not just shopping, but shopping in New York City. I don't know about you but I have neve

r been, so this trip sounds pretty awesome. Take it into consideration! You will have a blast.

Do You Have Holiday Spirit?

CHRISTMAS, JUST AROUND THE CORNER

Do you like the holidays? Are you kind of sad to be away from all your school friends over the holidays, like I am? A whole month off where you don't see your roommates or hall-mates, kind of sad. Especially for me since I live on the opposite side of the United States. Here is a chance to sit down with school friends and faculty to enjoy a delicious meal. Come to the Grand Buffet! Which will be located in the Mitton House. This event is just around the corner! December third, save the date. This is a Wednesday. The Grand Buffet starts at 11:45 AM and continues till 12:45 PM. 

This is unfortunately not free, for students there is a fee of only FIVE dollars, for faculty and staff there is a fee of ten dollars.

Need Something To Do?

Come to the Student Center and compete in our pool tournament! It starts at eight and it is free of charge! We all know you are already procrastinating, why not make your procrastination worthwhile? Do something productive, well maybe not productive, but entertaining with your evening tonight. From what I have heard there will be refreshments and all that jazz for everyone who choses to attend. Hey, maybe pool isn't your cup of tea... Who cares, just come and watch then! Honestly do you really have anything better to do on a Monday night besides your homework, which of course should be your number one priority.... So do that first then come!

Upcoming sports :

Mens Basketball, December 2nd, an away game at Regis College. Game starts at 7pm!

Welcome back

Good-bye Thanksgiving break, hello finals!

Are we all prepared? Probably not. After all we have a week till finals start. Good luck to everyone. 

The dorms opened up today at noon. From now on we, the residents at Newbury, no longer are permitted to have overnight guests. 

We are only back for 12 days though, honestly it really shouldn't be that big of a deal. Can you believe it? First semester is almost over!!!! 

P.S. I hope everyone's Thanksgiving was worthwhile. 

Introduction

Hey everyone,

I realized that I probably should have introduced myself and the reasoning of this blog. Well, as a homework assignment I am keeping up an updated blog for three weeks. I have chosen to write about my school's activities that the community should participate in. I hope to inform whomever choses to read this about what is going on in the Newbury community.

Thanks every buddy!

Well there was a great turnout for the Devil Wears Prada, which was actually changed to Sex and the City. Ha ha. Well if you consider around less then 10 people to be a great turnout... Anyways it was still quite entertaining and more people should have shown! I think it is safe to say that we have a very "involved" school... Please note that this is me being sarcastic. Any who... That's all for now!

See---------->

 You should have come, look how happy she was about going to this event! (Even though the movie was changed.)

Unexpected Change!

Movie changed to Sex and the City!! 

Watch this!

Tonight!

Fashion Forward presents, movie night.

Come watch The Devil Wears Prada!

At 8 PM in the Student Center Auditorium. They are having refreshments for those who come to watch the movie and support Newbury's fashion club.

Upcoming:

Woman's Basketball, Tuesday December 25th against Eastern Nazarene College @ 6 pm. (Unfortunately an away game)
