Ok, so Outfly. I've explained it three times already (maybe only two, I guess...since I started this in NOVEMBER of 2002, so I would've already missed Outfly) Anyway, Outfly is a random day during the Fall Term, usually before Homecoming, in which we get a day off from classes. We don't know when the day is, however, until the men's cross country team gets the word from the Student Body Prez (who decided the day with the College Prez) and then the CC team runs through every dorm on every floor yelling OUTFLY! And pounding on the doors. Then we all meet at the Victory Bell, where the President comes and officially announces it Outfly. This is all before 7 a.m., mind you, and then we go to the Caf. and have breakfast served by our professers. Then we have the rest of the day off from class....Outfly officially ends at around 5 p.m.

Although it would seem that Tuesday's classes would be lost, actually Friday's classes are lost, for whatever day Oufly is called on is transferred to Friday. So I have my Tuesday and Thursday class on Thursday and Friday this week....which is sweet, because it's only one class and I'm done at 11:30.

So that's Outfly. Except this year we live with the Student Body Prez, and we knew about it at 6 a.m. So we got up, had a round of beers....had a few shots....cranked up the music....and promptly missed the festivities at the bell. I did go to the breakfast for the first time, though....and then I fell asleep for a while. We then went out for lunch....and I finally took a shower....and then Outfly was all but over for me.

Really, the day was like a Sunday for me. I knew I had to study for my Grammars test today and so I couldn't enjoy it at all. I dunno. Outfly has been lost for a while....you can read my column about it for this week here. Good thing I had such a TIMELY idea. heh. Oh well. The stupid Editor-in-Chief, who is also one of my roommates, didn't tell me I needed to write something until Wednesday evening.

And that's that. Now I have a really easy rest of the week. Booyea.
