Wow, finally a second to breathe after all of this excitement! We won both games this weekend. This puts us in a great position for our conference rankings. The information on the horizon League page isn't updated yet, but I want to say these two wins puts us in 5th place! Friday's game was a really big deal because it was out "volley for the cure game." It's a game that we use to raise *** cancer awareness.

This is a really special cause to me because one of my volleyball coaches in high school is a survivor of *** cancer. During the month of October I really think about her. It's a big deal for the team also because one of our recent alumna's mom is a survivor as well. She's actually the mom of the player who sent me close after Hurricane Katrina happened. Her and her daughter have always been part of my support system here at Butler, and I've always been really grateful for them being here for me. The feminist group on campus D.E.M.I.A even decorated Hinkle in pink awareness decor.

The night was even better after we beat UIC in 3 games, and after we beat Loyola today this weekend could really one get better if my projects would disappear! Oh....that reminds me I better try to finish up my accounting project due next week. I need to finish up a group project for my Electronic Journalism class. We need to cut some tape together in the edit bays in Fairbanks tomorrow. I better finish up this script so we can match it with the scenes we want.

Don't forget we can support the fight against *** cancer all year long by going to The *** Cancer Site. The sites very useful in helping other important charities that need your support as well. Happy clicking, and hope everyone had a fun and safe Halloween!

For some reason it always seems that papers, exams, and other important things are all due around the same time. We have two more weeks left of regular season play before the conference tournament in Milwaukee. That means, I have three weeks to get my life together. Since we only had the Wright State game last night this weekend is perfect for me to catch up on some work. This week went by so fast between practice and class I can see these due dates trying to sneak up on me. If there's only one thing I learn when I graduate, that's going to be time management. It's the biggest factor for success in college, and I'll be the master of it eventually lol .

Last night's game was one of the most intense this season. We fell to Wright State in three putting us in 6th place in the conference this week. We still have a chance for third and fourth place, and we are certainly going for with everything we have! This weekend is a great chance to catch up on not just work but friends too. A few of us are going to the movies tomorrow to see SAW IV! We've been looking forward to it for a long time. It made me think about Lambda Chi and Alpha Phi's haunted house.

They teamed up to for this philanthropy event to help a food bank. Some of my buddies tried to talk me into going but I just don't do haunted houses. The only reason I'm even going to see SAW IV is because I want to know what happens in the story line. Hope everyone out there has a safe Halloween!
