Bwogger Anish Bramhandkar started his year off right by heading up to the 12th floor of Mudd to catch a few minutes of Disney/Pixar’s Monsters Inc., spotted on one of those ubiquitous flatscreens.  Why is SEAS spending its considerable brainpower on kids’ movies?  Bramhandkar suggests the display is designed to convince freshman engineers that fun stuff happens in Gateway.  Let’s hope so.

The one redeeming facet of new-new-Facebook is the highlights bar, which today painted the picture of a campus overflowing with food.

For breakfast, head over to the Casa Latina for a pancake brunch.  It’s $2 for all-you-can-eat pancakes, benefiting the Lucha Community Health Fair next week.  12-2 PM @ EC TH 504.

Head over to the McBain lounge right after that to nab a sandwich for dinner.  Subway (remember them from home?) is sponsoring a SEAS 2011 study break.  There’s a free Yankees tickets giveaway (helpfully repeated four times) and little motive for the festivities apart from the launch of a new ESC 2011 website.  1-3PM @ McBain Lounge.

Return to the scene of the grime at 8 for a free “curiosity” ice cream social.  The CU “T-Mobile Brand Ambassadors” and the Students for Substance-Free Space will be hosting with “tons” of flavors and toppings for the “ultimate sundae.”  They’re giving away a free T-Mobile G1 phone (that’s the Google Android phone) at the end of the night and the person with the most phone-related spirit (spirit-making supplies provided) will win “some cash.”  Maybe they’ll return the two dollars you spent on pancakes.  8-9:30 PM @ McBain Lounge.

And if you’re the kind of person who likes “free” food over “free food,” head over to the KSA Culture show in Roone tonight for “free” Korean food, provided you purchase the $15 ticket.  8:00 PM @ Roone Arledge Auditorium.

E-Week 2009 kicks off tonight at 8:00 PM in Roone.  This is the yearly event that the SEAS student life committee puts on for the sake of “good food and lots of engineering pride!” (ORIGINAL CAPS REMOVED).

Of course, that’s not why Bwog cares.  According to Peter Valeiras’ multi-colored electronic mail message, there will be free tshirts!  And the Facebook event promises free dinner!  That’s right kids, not just cupcakes, but a full meal.

Take advantage of SEAS’s generosity tonight and stay tuned for something exciting called “SEAS Pageant 2009.”  Now that should be a show.
