How does a school have a homecoming without a football team? However this happens we had a bonfire and bbq since its homecoming weekend here at UMBC. One of the school's neighbors called the fire department because they thought the top floors of a building were on fire. Here is a video.

After wards we had an outdoor showing of Transformers. I had attended* with some friends and had a lot of fun. Tomorrow there are fireworks and Saturday night we're all going to see Jim Gaffigan.

Sometime this weekend Kitty and I are going to go to the Baltimore Book Thing and I'm going to get free books to read - yay!** We are also  going to shoot photos. Eventually we want to do some urban exploration / documentation - anyone know of some cool abandoned sites?

Next weekend there are many Halloween parties. I'm not sure If I can top my costume from last year:

I like it here. The classes are a bit painful but I think they would be anywhere. Overall I'm very happy with the way things are going.
