PRISE bowling


At the Alewife T stop, on our way to Lanes and Games (Thanks Greg for funding and Ritchell for organizing!)

Ladies and their colorful balls.

Dan showing off his underhand, between-the-legs bowling skills.

Excited to bowl :)

Everyone looks so happy!

Josh has an audience

PRISE love :)

A group of us headed over to the North End for dinner at La Famiglia Giorgio's after bowling (great choice, Francesca! 20% discount with student ID)


Bellies full (GNOCCHI=YUM)

Dropped by Mike's Pastries to pick up 100 cannolis for the study break later that evening.

Cambridge Dance Party


In front of city hall, beautifully lit up at the Cambridge Dance Party Friday evening. (Thank you Chris Devine for the picture!)

A feeble attempt to take a group picture.

The street was completely packed...

Viking Vendetta


Our fearless leader, Three Whiskers the Cabbage Slayer, going over the route of pillage and explaining the rules of conduct.

Hard at work making viking costumes in Lev JCR the night before the race.

So many horns!

It was amazing to see the mass of ~ 35 vikings walking through the Square to the T.

And getting on the Red Line...we definitely got a lot of amused stares!

Childhood Flashback


It has been over 10 years since Toy Story 2...

We all sported our spiffy 3D glasses...would this sequel live up to its predecessors?

As you can see, we were all very excited to watch Toy Story 3 in IMAX 3D. Was it as good as everyone said it was? Yes, indeed. (Peter made fun of me for crying...)


Bonding over Shooting


The indoor field at Boston Paintball in Everett, MA.

Paintballing was a first time for all of us...we were all really excited to get onto the field and start shooting!

Matt showing off his battle wounds.

The group :) We're all looking forward to doing this again with more PRISE-lings!

Very thirsty after several hours of paintball.

The Pink Ladies of PRISE, hanging out on the Hatch Shell waiting for the Grease Sing-along to start

Yes, Afoma actually went up and competed against 7-year-olds...

And whaddaya know, she won a limited edition Princess and the Frog souvenir! (Like stealing candy from a baby)

Summer Lovin'...had me a blast

Free Flicks every Friday at the Hatch Shell!

PRISE Amazing Race

Thank you, Zach, for all the pictures!

Breakfast in the JCR before the Amazing Race.

Cracking the code: Mail center in the basement of the Science Center.

Using the computers in the computer lab to help solve the problems.

Bringing PJ water and telling her a funny joke.

There was so. much. running.

As you can see...

Hard at work to try to unscramble the final clue.

And it paid off, we won!

Run, run, run!

Crossing the finish line at the end of Weeks Bridge.

Shoutout to James Pelletier- you did an incredible job organizing this!

Shooting down empty coke cans with rubber bands while other PRISE fellows watch on...it's harder than it looks! (Photo courtesy of Chris Devine)

Thank you, Zach, for the rest of the Minute-to-Win-It pictures!!
BA focuses as he tries to get the water bottle to land on the table.

Look at that air!

Knocking down empty coke cans with rubber bands.

Stacking golf balls.

Action shot!

Cup stacking with alternating hands.

In Lev dining hall for the minute-to-win-it competitions.

The task: getting the brown bags onto the table using just your mouth.

The flying nametag is proof that Phoebe was moving fast!
