LAST WEEK
Friday
FM started at the ’Berg for the Junior Class Events
Commission’s “Junior Class Does Junior High” party. Free for juniors
but five bucks for all others, the dance got attendees to relive those
traumatizing days of yesterdecade at clique-themed tables. Special
Bonus: all the Dunkaroos and Fruit by the Foot you could ask for (and
some beer, too).
Next, FM headed to the PfoHo Belltower, where she was shooed
away because the party was at capacity. But after flashing her press
credentials, she was treated to the house drink: pineapple soda and
rum.
Finally, at the Dudley House Co-Op, the alternative crowd
grinded to everything from reggaeton to Ace of Base and played an
intense drinking game known as “Fuck You Pyramid” (don’t ask—we don’t
know, either). After the boxed wine ran out, the party dispersed,
forcing all to walk home through the pouring rain.
Saturday
Things got started frighteningly early in Loker Commons where,
at 8 p.m., the Harvard-Radcliffe Science Fiction Association had a
live-action roleplay (LARP) ball. Donning tiaras and military uniforms,
students and alums gathered together between the pool tables and that
kid finishing his problem set for waltzes and swordfights.
At the CityStep party at the Signet, people who teach dance to
children ate whipped cream off each other’s bodies. A classy affair in
Harvard’s premiere arts-and-letters society, teams of teachers dressed
up as “The 6 Stages of Mariah Carey (plus Kunle)” and “Dirrty
Throughout the Ages.”
Meanwhile, at another artsy non-finals-club, the Advocate
threw a pi-themed birthday party for Olga Kamensky ’08. Guests brought
their favorite math nerds and jammed to hits by Aqua and Usher.
Until next week. FM is so ready to get HOUSED (as soon as she finds out what it means).
THIS WEEK
Thursday
Watch Jaws in the MAC pool. Inner tube and poolside stands
tickets are $8 and $5, respectively, but if the movie scares the shit
out of you, you’ll be asked to exit the premises.
Friday
Woodbridge Society throws their annual International Fiesta,
starting with a banquet at 8:30 p.m. and a dance at 10. The event will
feature DJ Quiet, a best-dressed contest, and Latin dance lessons.
Tickets are $8 from the Harvard Box Office.
Saturday
Put on your favorite party dress (if you’re a boy) and head
over to BGLTSA’s Drag Night Karaoke, one of the hottest events in
Gaypril.
8 p.m. in Adams.
Afterwards, get “housed” for those who can’t at Harvard Habitat
for Humanity’s dance/benefit in the Eliot Dining Hall. Your $5 will go
towards the creation of one-hundred-thousandth of a house. Real
estate’s expensive now, yo.
