Operation Blue Hen

One of the things I learned in student government was that transfer students often have a hard time breaking into the social sphere. That's it's a new environment but people are already set in their patterns. It's doubly hard for a mid year transfer student.

So when I heard a certain [livejournal.com profile] eleanor727 was transferring from Pittsburgh to Tulsa, I commissioned Operation Blue Hen. Operation Blue Hen took place starting Saturday, January 7th at 2:00pm and ended late Sunday night (there's a reason my LJ has been devoid of content lately...I'm simply busy doing other things). I also commissioned some photos to be taken of the operation, recorded here for posterity.

Random facts you should be aware of:
Delaware is the Blue Hen State.
Maine is known for Red Lobsters.

Red Cross Girl created a nice banner in Paint to welcome the Blue Hen.

I hear one of the biggest factors that attract blue hens to Tulsa are red lobsters. What's strange is having to tell customs why I got a Blue Hen from Delaware and Red Lobster from Maine for Christmas.

Blue hens make excellent fyrefighters due to their mothering instinct.

Oddly enough, surveillance of the Blue Hen looks an awful lot like Halo 2. (Z3 obsessed Stevo is the other one pictured)

I must admit the quality of my posts have gone up. And yet, my quest to improve my writing in both content and style is a neverending process.

[identity profile] poliphilo.livejournal.com 2006-01-10 08:26 pm (UTC)(link)
Of course.

To infinity and beyond.

We should all be struggling to get better.
