It seems that all over the globe, Universities and Colleges alike are throwing A Capella concerts.  Last night I popped into the Kresge Auditorium to get my fix of non-instrumental entertainment.  Pam, Shanying, and Jenna were all singing for The Muses, an all female group.  Also gracing the stage were Resonance, The Cross Products (a Christian group), The Chorallaries, The MIT/Wellesley Toons, and The Logarythms.  There was a huge crowd, but I got a good seat and enjoyed all the performances.

Yesterday, I was officially inducted as a new member into Theta Chi fraternity.  Being parent’s weekend, some older folks were there to witness the ceremony.  After brunch at The Pour House, I watched Theta Chi dominate in intramural football and then delved into some homework assignments.

I’m still trying to settle into the campus life.  It’s hard to take a step back and relax when the workload is so intense, but I certainly don’t feel like I’m wasting my time.
