Go have fun.

Dance Dance Revolution / Spring Break at the Library


Spring break time! Did ya think it would ever get here? We have lots going on a the library next week:

SUNDAY - Game Fest 1-5 pm - X-box and Madden (can anyone bring in PS2 controllers???)
THURSDAY - DDR (Dance Dance Revolution) and Pizza Taste-Off, 6-8 pm

We're ready to kick off DDR programs with new arcade-style dance pads! And see if you can guess which pizza is which. Prizes will be announced, and so will our Teenscape Art Contest Winners! It will be momentous.

Twinkie (you know who I'm talking about) says, with much chagrin, that he'll lose weight if his does this. Perhaps. : ] But where else can you do dance on Cobalt Flux dance pads without having to feed money into an arcade game? Right here! Sweet. See ya there.

Anime Screening: Howl's Moving Castle


Come watch the newly-released anime movie HOWL'S MOVING CASTLE (Hauru no ugoku shiro) this Thursday night (that's tomorrow!) at 6 pm in the Teenscape. We'll be eating pizza and talking about the book too. Read it yet? It's not required. The movie is just around 2 hours, so we should be wrapping up a little after 8 pm.

I was hoping to read the book before I watched the film, but I didn't get the chance. There's been a lag in the blog due to my vacationing in Belize. Everyone needs a break, right? What a beautiful country with wonderful people. If you ever get the chance to go, take it. Visiting a third world country really makes you appreciate what you have living here--I'm excited to be able to drink tap water again!
