Hello World,
Come on out to UNITYBALL this Saturday, 11/20 from 10pm-1am at Cox Ballroom! It'll be a blast and if you want these sweet glow in the dark shutter shades, be one of the first 50 to buy a ticket and the shades are free! Tickets are being sold at the tables in the DUC on Nov. 16, 18, & 19 for $5. Tickets are also being sold at the door for $7. Buy your ticket quickly before we run out of shutter shades! Also, remember to wear your whites and brights to Unity Ball. There will be black lights that will make you shine! See you all there!
At long last, It's finally complete . Here's the latest promo video for this year's festivities along with some other stuff that we've been working on behind the scenes. Simply put, we are excited about this year's celebrations. ARE YOU?
P.S. Look for a cameo by the one and only J Wag.
We Are Gold and Blue
Isn't it funny how life works sometimes?
Many of us go around feeling lonely
Even though there are literally thousands of people just like us
Maybe that's the curse of Emory's geography
Pockets of separate planets wrapped into one disjointed universe
Tunnel-visioned with no cognizance of any world outside of our own
It seems crazy to think that we all go to the same school
Sometimes suffer the repercussions of a bad lunch from the DUC
And constantly wish that Dooley would
Come let out of that God-awful test we did not study for
Sometimes I think we are too wrapped up
In the asinine hullabaloo of everyday life
Like that meeting I have to go to
Or the test I have to study for
And for Pete's sake why won't my lab experiments work
To really stop and take a moment to see what makes us all special
We are a community of scientists and artists
Thinkers and dreamers
We are business people and hippies
We are superficially serious and secretly goofy
We're bent on saving the world
Even though sometimes we act like we don't care
We've all got burdens we refuse to share
We're LGBT and straight
We're Buddhists, Muslims, Wiccans, Christians,
Jews and Hindus, Agnostics and Sikhs
We're even Atheists in more ways than we care to admit
We're Israelis and Palestinians, Tibetan and Chinese
We are every race, color, gender, and creed
But no matter how we divide amongst ourselves
Or what campus we're on
Come what may
Whether hell or high water
Or sun or rain
You and me will forever be
Gold and Blue

PPS As Always, Let us know what you think.
Anyone who has ever met the power parody duo Belle and the Dragon, knows that their personalities are as larger than life and as hilarious as their music. Between Taylor Swift lyrics reimagined for the Harry Potter fan in all of us and appropriately themed video accompaniment, college juniors Katie Green and Kearstin Sale may have just stumbled onto a way to make English class more bearable. If you've got a minute and you're in need of a witty laugh, Check out Belle and the Dragon. You'll be glad you did.
P.S. Word on the street is that they might coming out with more stuff soon so stay tuned.
