OK, so every year Taylor has this thing called Airband. It's a little hard to describe what it is. Basically it's a bunch of modern dances, I guess, though 'dance' doesn't seem to quite fit some of the acts. Well, you make up your own mind, and tell me what you think:
Across the Universe
Thriller/Disturbia
Beat It
Jai Ho
Ramalama
Can-Can
This next one was done by my floor together with our sister floor (a wing in a girl's dorm who we do some stuff with). I'm not in it, but a lot of my friends are. If you want another perspective, I uploaded to facebook a video I took of it.
Footloose
This next one won 3rd place.
Make a Man
This next one won 2nd place.
Be Our Guest
These guys won first place:
Boom Boom Pow
Which one do you think should have won?

My Life These Days
Hey All, sorry about not updating sooner...
So, as you probably know, I'm currently in my Freshman (1st) year here at Taylor University. Taylor University is a private Christian university, and you can find out more about it at their website: www.taylor.edu. I live in Samuel Morris Hall on the 3rd floor, which is nicknamed The Brotherhood, or Broho for short. I'm currently a Computer Science major, though I might switch to Computer Engineering.
Let's see, what else is there to say... Apparently we had snow a week ago, but it was so little and so brief I didn't see it. There was frost covering the ground a week ago this past Sunday, though, which was pretty cool (no pun intended). =) Today the weather's really warm; it's almost 20 degrees. =)
My roommate's name is Nate, and he's from Kansas. He's a pretty cool guy. Our room's pretty sweet. We have our bed's bunked; we each have a desk, and there's a decent number of shelves. We also have a couch and a TV, which is pretty sweet, except when Nate keeps it on really late when I'm trying to sleep. =)
I have a job as a Lab Supervisor in 'The Dungeon'. The Dungeon is our nickname for the basement of the science building, where the computer science rooms are. There are three computer science labs, which basically consist of a bunch of computers for students to work at. As a lab supervisor I basically just keep an eye on things in the labs, and there are some random jobs to do around the Dungeon sometimes. For example, one job which we're in the middle of is dusting out the computers. It's pretty simple, consisting simply of disconnecting the computer from all wires, taking off the case and carefully spraying the inside with compressed air, then reconnecting everything.
Hmm... I'm not sure what else to say about my life here at Taylor. Any questions?
On a completely different note, I came across this song a couple weeks ago, and I think it's just amazing. Check it out:
"Beautiful" by Phil Wickham
A few other videos and/or songs I've come across lately:
"Rescue" by Seabird
"Death of Me" by RED
"Land Down Under" by Men at Work
"Who Can it Be Now" by Men at Work
