a bunch of us went to go to shadyside to see if anyone was celebrating in the streets. there was a whole crowd of people hanging out and hugging eachother. it was pretty tame - nothing compared to the LA riots i saw when UCLA students stormed into westwood when they won the NCAAP. however i heard that in other areas of pittsburgh were much rowdier than we were. overturned cars and fires and such.

other happenings--

went snowboarding for cmu day and taught yanni, ara and jeff how to snowboard. jeff already kinda knew how but ara and yanni were first timers. i'm proud to say after a day of my instruction, they were both carving by the end of the day. :)

vc panel - i planned a panel with 6 distinguished panelists for the VC club. it was a hit! i was lucky enough that all the major VC's i wanted rearranged their schedules for me in order to attend the panel. one even blew off a dinner put together by his alma mateur! :D the room was perfect, not too big and not too little. all the seats were full, the food was good, the conversation great, people stayed for about 45 min after the panel to network, students came from all different departments on campus. i couldn't have asked for a better event. just prior, i was still tying up loose ends starting from 3:00 until 5:00. but it all came together nicely. i even got numerous comments from students on how much they appreciated the quality of the event! yay! i'm so proud of me. my mentor is back from qatar and this was the first time i've seen him since he came back. needless to say he had a huge smile on his face and was extremely pleased.
