Updating now while I can't concentrate on cloisters anymore. I've been very busy with another week from Hell. Friday I have a presentation and paper on Romanesque Cloisters due, and I've also been worried about getting my Business Writing research done. Saturday I'll be heading to the Cloisters in NYC and also the Met, which I can't wait for. But all this reading about cloisters has me fixated on Soul Reaver 2 again. I'm going to need to go play a little as soon as I'm done here so I can get my fix and get back to work.

As promised, here are pix of me in my Sephy costume that I barely finished in time for Halloween. Wish I had better pix, but there were no professional photographers around. It took 3 cans of silver hairspray to do all that hair! XD

If nothing else, it was a good way to get some hot gamer guys to talk to me. O: ) Mwahahaha. My insanely awesome advisor was dressed as the Black Knight from Monty Python. It was sweet. I should've asked him if he could make me a 7ft katana since he's a metalworker and that'd kick so much ass.

The football team schwacked Wisconsin in the game last weekend. The crowd at the Beav was the second largest in it's history. No one rushed the field or destroyed anything this time as they had the riot police out before the game was completely finished. I was so sad that it was my last game as a student, but happy for the win. I got blocked seats for the game so I could tailgate rather than worrying about getting there 4 hours early. Plus that meant I got to sit w/ a bunch of my friends so that was nice too.

PSU plays MSU in 2 weeks then hopefully a New Years bowl game. As of now we're still #1 in the Big Ten and #5 in the BCS rankings. I'm going to get info on packages for the bowl game, but I don't know if I'll be able to afford it. :? I'd really love to go if possible though. I'll keep you guys posted. ^.^
