Hi girls! I hope everyone is having a great Thanksgiving break and eating lots and lots of good food! You should have recently received my evite invitation to this year's End of Semester Party happening the Thursday of Dead Week, December 9 from 6:00p - 7:30p in place of our regular meeting in CoC Rm 354. I'm so excited to see so many of you have RSVPed!! However, I think there might have been a problem with the Secret Santa feature of evite. SOOOoo.... to play Secret Santa this year, PLEASE send me your "yay!" ASAP as well as a short list of likes and dislikes so your secret santa might know a little bit more about you. We're setting the cost of a gift around $10. The deadline to participate in the game is midnight, Thursday, December 2. I will send out your gift recipient the following morning so you will have plenty of time to go shopping :P. If you're not sure about the game rules, you can find more information here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Secret_Santa. In addition, we're also planning on doing a pot luck and the End of Semester party. Please email me with what you would like to bring so I can make sure we don't end up with JUST desserts :P. I'm always really excited about this part every year because you all seem to always surprise me with your AMAZING cooking and buying skills :P. I know a lot of you also wanted to decorate gingerbread cookies at the party. If you would be interested in supplying cookies, frosting, or candy, please let me know! We will not have an oven in the CoC, so the cookies would need to be pre-cooked. Please let me know if you have any questions or comments! Thank you, and have a GREAT rest of your break! -- Candis Pham B.S. Computational Media 2011 Georgia Institute of Technology
