Hey OYFA!!!
2. The 2 weeks I spent in Paris my Senior Year. I think those were the best two food weeks I've ever had. Everything I ate was so delicious.
3. I would go back to September 19, 1981 so I could see Simon&Garfunkel play in Central Park.
1. Ever since I was younger, I've wanted to join the Peace Corps. I want to go out into the world and see things, learn about people, and learn how to help people.
2. Learn how to cook. After a year of surviving off of Yuan Ho delivery, cheap Ramen, Mac&Cheese and saltine crackers, I feel like most of my post-undergraduate life should be spent learning how to cook quality food for myself.
3. Learn how to play the mandolin. My fingers are too little to play the guitar, so I am determined to master all of the guitar's smaller, cuter cousins.
Get hyped!!! Our new IM sport for the coming week is IM FLOOR HOCKEY. The schedule is below. Everyone is welcome and no experience is necessary. We are co-sponsoring with VSA so come out and make new friends. Let's dominate!!!

Dear OYFAns,
WE NEED YOU! Formal is getting closer and closer and there is still a lot of work that needs to be done! This event couldn't be possible without everyone's help, so lets show everyone how much OYFA cares and can dooo =)
On October 26 and 27 (today and Tuesday), all of the organizations involved in Formal will be chalking for the event! We need 2-3 people to participate each night or else OYFA will suffer profit penalties! If you can, please go to Chem at 9PM one or both of these nights! Contact Adrian (mas6au) or Jonah (jae7h) if you can chalk so we can know for sure that we have enough people.
Also, OYFA will most likely be tabling for presale tickets on Monday, November 9 and Friday, November 13 from 10:30AM - 1:30PM. We need two people at the table at all times for these three hours. We will most likely divide this shift into 30 minute intervals. Also, we need an OYFAN at the door on the night of Formal. These shifts aren't too long, so if you have some free time, please help! Here is the spreadsheet so you can see the times that are still open:
Also, if you want to join any of the other committees for Formal, including PR, Food/Drink, Entertainment, and Fundraising, please let us know too!
Make sure you go and invite all your friends to Formal! Wooooo.
Last but not least, come to Date Auction on Wednesday from 7PM-9PM in Maury 209! Come support and/or buy OYFAns representative, Ian Fajardo! Yaaay!
Sorry for the lengthy blurb, and thank you in advance for all your time and help. We couldn't do it without you all =)
Social love,
Jonah & Adrian

Last Week's WiOYFAn: Andrew Gener!
Remember: The first person to correctly guess who this weeks WiOYFAn is gets to be the next one!
1. If you had to to choose one Disney movie to be in, what would it be/what character would you be and why?
I would be Shang from Mulan so I could sing about, in the robust voice of Donny Osmond, how I'm gonna make a man out of you. Wink wink. Ooh yeah.

2. If you could travel back to any 3 events in history, what would they be and why?
1. I would go back to my first year, as an "event in history," I suppose. I would've studied harder, gone out less, and taken more relevant and interesting classes. I would have also gone to Professors' office hours more. 2. The 2 weeks I spent in Paris my Senior Year. I think those were the best two food weeks I've ever had. Everything I ate was so delicious.
3. I would go back to September 19, 1981 so I could see Simon&Garfunkel play in Central Park.
3. What are three things on your bucket list? (why?)
2. Learn how to cook. After a year of surviving off of Yuan Ho delivery, cheap Ramen, Mac&Cheese and saltine crackers, I feel like most of my post-undergraduate life should be spent learning how to cook quality food for myself.
3. Learn how to play the mandolin. My fingers are too little to play the guitar, so I am determined to master all of the guitar's smaller, cuter cousins.
