PHANTASMA 2009!!!
As the Women@CC Chair, I may be a little biased, but Phantasma was amazing!! It may have been one of the best CoC student organizations events this semester. So many people came, everyone seemed to be getting really involved with the contests and games and seemed to be having fun.
It started to rain, so we had to resort to our rain location in the Klaus Atrium. This was actually our first choice of location, but because there was another event that didn’t end until 3p, we out it down as a back-up. It’s a good thing we did because we couldn’t have had the entire event outside. We only had an hour to set up, but so many people came to help out. It all pulled together really well.
We had so many pther participating student organizations. The face painting and caricatures was sponsored by Gourd, the Chubby Bunny food eating contest sponsored by UPE, the FIREwall did Musical Chairs, M@CC did the Trick or Treat Roulette game, and SAB and CISCO brought Trivia. When I took the position of Women@CC Chair, one of my main goals was to bring the student organizations more together to bring more people together. This event makes me happy ^_^.
There were so many events, contests, and interesting people at Phantasma this year… I took over 90 pictures! To see more of my pictures, feel free to visit my Picasa page at http://picasaweb.google.com/touching.the.sky/20091030Phantasma?feat=directlink.

Georgia Tech Wins Against Virginia Tech – Rushing the Field & Tearing Down Goalpost
We WON!! Georgia Tech won against Virginia Tech 28-23, then rushed the field and tore down the goalpost. It took a while but they eventually got it, it finally tore down after the 4 minute 15 mark of the second video. The third video is our president George “Bud” Peterson accepting the goalpost as a present 
.
Third Eye Blind at Georgia Tech!!!
For the Homecoming concert, Third Eye Blind performed in the Burger Bowl on campus! Despite the cold weather, there was a great turn out and the music was amazing!

Georgia Tech Official Homecoming 09 Website: http://homecoming.gatech.edu/
Our Homecoming Display! The guys did such a great job putting this together. They worked from 8:00p until almost 4 in the morning (event rules only gives them from 8:00p – 10:00am to work on it), and have some adorably awesome displays to show for their hard work. Also, you may not be able to see it from these pictures, but there’s a picture of our interim CoC Dean Foley on the side of the train. He’s known for loving trains ^_^.
Two of our guys participated in the Clown Relay where they not only had to wear clown suits (shoes, nose, and all), but go through obstacles and do challenges such as hoola hooping, juggling, jump-roping and more. (Second pic = me happy for homecoming ^_^)
We won our division of The Great Clown Car Act!! One team we watched fit almost 20 girls in their 6ft x 4ft x 4ft box! At least they weren’t in our division ! We fit 12 with plenty of room to spare, but not enough volunteers. However, the ones that did participate were wonderful and got in with amazing quickness so that we took home 1st place in our category!
FIGHT! WIN! DRINK! GET NAKED!
Lol, no worries. It’s one of the Football fan cheers
This Saturday will take on #4 Virginia Tech in Football for our Homecoming game. This is pretty much one of the biggest games for the rest of our season. If we beat them, we can pretty much coast the rest of the time (easy wins) and possibly be number one in the ACC!
Some links John sent me today. They’re pretty much epic. You need to read them (I love these writers; they’re awesome!!):

GT Team Buzz 2009
Some of the lovely ladies of Women@CC participated in Team Buzz this year! An annual Georgia Tech wide volunteer project for the city of Atlanta, Team Buzz is a great opportunity to get together with the rest of the college to give back to the city of Atlanta. Almost 2000 Georgia Tech students participated in the event this year!
This year, the College of Computing Women@CC had eight volunteers: Pushkara Chaganti, Ka Young Kim, Sravya Kotte, Ugochi Ofoha, Candis Pham, Madhuri Tondepu, Haritha Viravalli, and Yonnie Yang. We participated in the Eastlake project cleaning a public park, pulling weeds, and mulching. It was a lot of fun and residents of Atlanta even came out of their nearby stores to thank us ^_^.
Home Sweet Home- Back to Atlanta
We’re going home! GHC, as usual, was absolutely amazing. I love all the new people you meet and stories you hear, the sessions you go to and and things that you learn. I love all the new places you get to go to, companies you get to talk to, and stuff you get to take back home with you (physically as well as mentally, haha). I love all the relationships you build and wonderful Women@CC members that you get to bond with while on the trip 
. But as fun as it was, I’m happy to be going back home to Atlanta and my sweetheart.
Although, next year, the GHC will be in Atlanta! The preview video shown as the last keynote made Atlanta look amaaazing (I really wanted to post the video on here… it was that awesome… but I can’t seem to find it). It makes me want to visit places in Atlanta that I didn’t want to go to before! lol. jk jk. I’m a little bummed we don’t get to travel anywhere new next year, but I’m SUPER excited we get to send a lot more Women@CC members to the conference! Whoo hoo!
