Countdown: four days! Or two, if you're planning on going hard starting Wednesday. Or zero, if you do that every day anyway. Jazz & Grooves released a promo for their Saturday In The Quad concert, featuring Delorean, Gigamesh (not the ancient play you read in 9th grade - that's GiLgamesh), Autre Ne Veut and more. Come on, look at how much fun your fellow Quakers are having in this video! Makes us want to dance! Sure to be a good time.
Lots of shows this weekend! Possibly because everyone wants to squeeze their events in before the fling pandemonium starts. Here's our weekly guide to what you're missing when you shove politely ignore the kid thrusting a flyer in your face:
Let's talk about sex, baby.
In case you missed it, Penn has been buzzing with news about a new college house on Hill Field. The new building, which will include a dining hall, music practice rooms and lounges, will start construction in January and be ready in fall 2016...when only the frosh will still be here. This six-floor paradise will fit 350 Quakers of all ages. Is it just us or does Hill not seem that far away when it has air conditioning?
We've all heard the jokes: "Hell is going to freeze over before Penn renovates Gregory." Well, it's about to get chilly up in here because after over 30 years, Gregory College House is finally getting renovated!

With a diverse tasting menu of bean pies, apple bean pies, or sweet potato pies it's perfect for a hot date, late night study session, or a place to take your grandparents when they come visit you. Just be careful, don't let this happen to you.
Hide yo kids, hide yo wife: Countess is back! The sassy Locust Hawk was seen striking a heroic pose outside of Hill yesterday. Maybe she heard that there would be thousands of pre-frosh touring Penn during President’s Day weekend and wanted to terrorize some kiddies. Remember, guys, stay on the lookout for Big C and don't let this happen to you.
Remember how long you spent on your college essays? How you slaved for weeks because your guidance counselor told you that your dissertation on why puppies will one day save the planet was what would definitely set you apart from the rest?
It's been a good week for substance users. After news about the privatization of alcohol sales, it has been reported that PA Sen. Daylin Leach proposed legislation to legalize recreational use of marijuana, following the footsteps of Colorado and Washington.
