Alright, so tonight and all of today is the last day of November. Many of you know that I participate in "No Shave November" every year, which, as the name implies, means that you don't shave for the month of November. It is quite fun, and nice because you don't have to worry about shaving every day. But yeah, so I will probably be shaving off most of my facial hair tomorrow, not sure what I am going to form it into, but I will take pictures of my beard before I shave it off, and then an after picture too.

Oh yeah, and you probably know this, but Edmonton Eskimos won the Grey Cup! I am very excited because it proves they are the best football team! Speaking of football, I am going to the final Fresno State Football game of the season on Friday night. Start time of 6:00pm, and it is being televised on ESPN2, so if you get that chanel you should watch.

Well it is that time of year when football seasons start heating up. As you may know Edmonton Eskimos beat the Calgary Stampeders last weekend (GO ESKS!!!), and they will be playing BC in the western showdown. Tomorrow, my Fresno State Bulldogs will be taking on the Trojans of the University of Southern California. If you follow US College Football you will know that the USC Trojans are ranked #1 in the nation, and my Bulldogs are ranked #16. The Bulldogs have a really great team this year, and I think we have a chance at beating USC. USC is a better team, but the Bulldogs are very underrated. The game is at 7:15pm pacific, and is being broadcast on Fox Sportsnet. So if you are lucky enough to have that channel, there is a good chance it will be on TV, and I really think you should watch it.

Lloyd and I took a little trip to Visalia and wandered around downtown and the Art Gallery, looked at some model homes and went out to lunch. We found this great restaurant, Henry Salazar's. It had soft lighting great atmosphere, pop Mexican music and fresh hot taco chips with fresh salsa. It was a great lunch and kind of a long time since Lloyd and I got to go on a "date". Hey Betty - I'm starting to like cilantro!

Every week I listen to a radio program about Europe. It is called Euroquest, and it is created and broadcasted by Radio Netherlands from Holland. They are finally getting into the new digital realm with a blog they have started. This radio program solicited names for their new blog through a contest where listeners could submit names they think would make good names for the blog. I did some thinking about what I thought would be a good name for the blog and I came up with the name "Euroqlog". Because the name of the program is Euroquest, I thought Euroqlog would be a good name, because it combines "Euroquest" and "blog", as well the "qlog" is similar to the dutch shoe, the "clog". So today I found out that I was one of the winners with the most creative title and I will be getting a bag of prizes in the mail eventually for winning.

Well, it's taken a long time this semester to get anything of mine in The Collegian (my school's newspaper) but this week I finally got an article in. The worst part was I forgot to pick up a paper on Wednesday/Thursday when the article was actually in the paper. Oh well, it's online for the enjoyment of everyone. Here's the link.

Well this week has been super busy for me. I had a mid-term in my Finance class today (which I think I did really well on), and yesterday I had a project due in my Marketing class. Tomorrow (Thursday), as usual, is my last day of the week, although it is the longest day of my week. I am really looking forward to the weekend.
