It pains me to say this, but the Wa has just closed. And so, it’s come down to this: Yes, that is the Forbes Private Dining Room, and yes, we will probably be eating a diet of instant noodles for the next 48 hours… or at least until we can get a Wa Hoagie tomorrow.

Heyy Princeton! As we all descend into midterm mania, here are a few more snippets and sightings to remind you that you’re not alone. 2nd Floor Frist: Wow, getting sassy.

Jam Session in Woody Woo Fountain

by Abby Klionsky
Apparently, today was a good day for Princeton’s football team. The team, which shut out Brown 19-0 today, “Remains Perfect in Ivies.” Despite the rivalry between the teams, however, our bands are pretty good friends. It’s become tradition that following the Princeton-Brown game each year, the two bands join together for a jam session in

So it’s Monday night and we’re feeling the back-to-Princeton grind. Fall’s third week has started, Lawnparties is far behind us and we can’t even fall back on “But it’s only September!” as an excuse to avoid work anymore.

by Dana Bernstein
In case you missed the last 5,000 emails about the football tailgate at Frist (um since when does a tailgate include an inflatable obstacle course?), the Princeton vs. Georgetown game was yesterday evening. Here are two videos from the halftime show (because we’re not so into the actual football part either). Yes, the band did
