Poetic Justice workshop!

Several of our Barnies are involved with Poetic Justice, a campus club that just celebrated it's one-year anniversary! To celebrate, they hosted a poetry workshop on Friday night. Here are some pics and videos from the event.

This is everyone that attended the workshop, except the Barn Dorm Parents, who were lurking in back taking pictures. =)

Briana and Kandice work with their group to create a poem.

Dorm Sweatshirts!

Last night, we got our 2010 DORM SWEATSHIRTS, which were designed by Tilly! Check out our girls sporting the new sweatshirts:

And, we also celebrated my birthday with brownies, strawberries, and cupcakes made by Riz!







 
Sadly, we'll have to wait to see Lia in her sweatshirt, since she's taking mod 3 off to go write short stories in Paris! Maybe she'll take pics of our sweatshirt all around France. =) Bon Voyage, Lia--we'll miss you!

Meanwhile, with one of our dorm leaders gone, we had many good-hearted volunteers to pitch in and help with dorm leader responsibilities in Lia's absence. We drew a name out of a hat, and Tilly will be helping out while Lia is gone. Thanks to all who volunteered--our girls rock!

Last Girls' Soccer game

Kandice, Felicia, and Niko all played JV soccer this fall, and though they didn't win their last game, they did make an AMAZING goal in the final moments of the game! Sadly, Kandice was still injured and couldn't play. =(

Happy Halloween!

Last night we celebrated Halloween in our dorm. Some of the girls went trick-or-treating, and then we gathered for a brief dorm meeting and Halloween celebration with yummy snacks.

Barnies in Fall Pro

The fall production of "Dr. Faustus Lights the Lights" by Gertrude Stein was OUTSTANDING. Aside from all of our actors, Sarah H-F's lighting got RAVE reviews. We were so proud of everyone!

Just a typical Wednesday night in the Barn

Wednesday night, Trapelo had their annual Halloween party (a little early) and one of their traditions is a campus raid. This usually consists of them running through all of the dorms, scaring people, screaming, and chanting "Trapelo!" This year, our dorm decided to launch a counter attack. The Barnies left the dorm deserted and hid in the woods around our dorm. Jordan put on his super scary Halloween mask and waited in a dark Hallway for the Trap girls to enter. Once they all came in, they came across a long, masked monster with a light shining on him and were quite frightened, I'm sure. When they all ran out of the dorm, our girls ran out of the woods and what followed involved much shrieking! We had a video, but it doesn't want to play with us today, sorry.
