lets catch up

hey everyone,

i've been on vacation, well technically, I still am on vacation. but I got back early for RA training and I finally got some hardware to transfer digital photos onto my computer. so first things first.

Here are some pictures from the RHA boat cruise. I think I may have mentioned this earlier, but RHA stands for "residence hall association". it is a group sponsored by the office of residence life to improve and maintain the quality of life of the students who live in the residence halls. there's an exec board that is voted in by residents and they have meetings every other monday to discuss things such as problems in the res halls, activites, the cafeteria food and much much more. each floor has a floor rep that tries to attend as many meetings as he or she can and basically be the obama for each floor. hahaAdd Image
well the rha is also supported by IIT itself via the student activities fund. this year they got around 20k to sponsor a boat cruise, which was pretty bad ass. they rented a boat for the entire night (i think around until 3 am) and there was gambling for chips (no money of course) and then there was an auction for prizes (with the chips) there was also appetizers, free sodas, and a cash bar. It was jam packed with people and fun. so without further ado, here are some pics.
