Cruisin' For A Cure: Relay For Life 2008

This past weekend, Mount Aloysius College celebrated its 5th Annual Relay For Life. I was so excited to see the turnout. The Colleges Against Cancer Committee did such an amazing job to make this Relay one that we'd never forget. I was thrilled to share the experience with my entire family. My grandparents and aunts came to celebrate as well. Let's just say that they made it very emotional.

We had so many different events take place: Paul Plays It All, Pie Your Favorite RA/Staff/ Faculty, Giant Twister, Extreme Musical Chairs, Ice Cream Eating Contest, Video Games, Comedians, DJs, a Bonfire, a concert and the Money Tree Game Show. I think everybody had an amazing time. I know I did!! It was great seeing all of our hard work come together for the 24-hour event.

It was a truly memorable experience and I am already getting started on plans for next year...haha! Well, I'm still trying to catch up on sleep from this past weekend and need to get some homework done. It's crunch time!! My Junior year is almost over...it's definitely a bittersweet feeling.
