Nightmarket

Nightmarket On Friday, my friend Weywey 06 (Course 2: Mechanical Engineering) and I went to Harvard Square for some errands and dinner. Weywey dug through this entire bin of orange, red, and green markers until she found the one blue Sharpie in the entire thing. These folders were on sale for 18 cents each! Needless to say, I was thrilled. (I bought 12.) Unfortunately, one was a casualty of some rainy weather today. Anyway, back to Harvard Square. Weywey and I ate at Penang, on the second floor of the Staples building. You cant see it from this picture, but theres a great view out over the shops. After dinner, we visited the Harvard Book Store I bought the book Wigfield, written by Amy Sedaris, Paul Dinello, and Stephen Colbert (its French, bitch). Then we took the #1 bus back to MIT for Nightmarket. This event is co-sponsored by lots of cultural groups across campus, including AAA (Asian American Association), CSC (Chinese Students Club), and ATS (Association of Taiwanese Students). There were tons of activities at this event, and unfortunately I got photos of very few. They had raffles, carnival games, massages, orgami, fortune-telling, henna-painting, arts and crafts, mahjong, and much more. We each paid $2 to get in, and were handed 5 meal tickets. In addition to these, Bryan 07 gave me 3 extra tickets, so I knew I had my work cut out for me. We decided to stick only to dessert, and had some honeydew jello, bean stew over rice, green tea ice cream, red bean ice cream, flan, and a lychee pastry. No almond tofu fruit salad this year =( Here, my friend Ricarose 06 (Course 6: Electrical Engineering Computer Science) volunteers at the FSA (Filipino Students Association) booth. heres my friend Maya 06 (Course 7: Biology), a member of MIT Hapa, a group for students of mixed background. Gloria, my floormate, does an awesome job performing with Dance Revelasian.
