Earlier this term, we traveled to Eldridge Park to observe the behavior and activities of ducks for a lab. We also went to the Gleason Meadow site at Tanglewood Nature Center a few weeks ago with insect nets and caught bees, butterflies, praying mantises, spiders, beetles and grasshoppers and observed the behavior of butterflies in a meadow environment. 
This Tuesday for lab we took two school-owned vans to the Binghamton Zoo and saw cougars, bears, goats, crows, penguins, reindeer, and wolves. Also, last night was the annual Elmira College Big Event show featuring OAR. The tickets were free for students and $20.00 for anyone else that wished to attend. The show was held in the gym, but the atmosphere and massive stage transformed the room and made everyone forget that we were still at school. They performed at radio quality and everyone had a lot of fun taking a break from the stresses of being students to be with friends and enjoy the show.
Yesterday, I also met with my advisor to create my last full schedule at Elmira College, and we recieved our dates and time to register for term two classes next week. After these little, much-needed and well-deserved breaks from being students, we are all back to the grind to finish mid-term tests, homework and projects and everyone is counting down the days to go home for our week-long Thanksgiving break in 14 days (told you we were counting). Friday I am meeting with the director of the counseling and career services to review and edit my resume and Monday I register for term two classes, so stay tuned!
