The date hasn't been set, Frantz said, but his office has coordinated with the Department of Health to identify two sites where the clinics will be held. One of the clinics will be held at Lock Haven University, and the other will be at Bucktail Area High School. Frantz said the clinics will be held over three, 12-hour days at each of the two sites. It's hoped that the clinic can be held at Bucktail during a halfschool day, so it can run from 12:30 to 8 p.m., and allow school nurses and resource offices to participate in the effort, Frantz said. "It's been a struggle setting this up," Frantz said. "The details are being worked out and we'll keep you in the loop." State officials said there have been four test-confirmed cases of H1N1 Clinton in County since April. Frantz and Clinton County Director of Services Emergency Kevin Fanning approached the Clinton County commissioners Monday because the size of the activity might require more security personnel than is available to those locations. Frantz said the Sheriffs Department might be able to provide additional support, and added he would be that approaching department once he had the commissioners' blessings. On their part, the commissioners promised to provide any support they could their accompanying mission to protect the public's health and welfare. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recently announced an additional 3.1 million doses of flu vaccine would be made available as the nation begins to enter the peak of flu season. According to state the officials, Department of Health has broadened the criteria used to determine who can receive a flu shot, and Frantz said he anticipates anybody who shows up for the three-day clinics will be immunized. The number one priority continues to be high-risk individuals and making sure they receive the protection they need against influenza, but the increased amount of vaccine available, the rise in the level of flu activity around the state and the decreased demand from high-risk individuals has allowed the department to expand the program. The Department of Health is making an effort to ensure individuals who had expressed a desire to receive a shot, and were placed on a list, will receive one. addition to In receiving the flu shot, department officials emphasized the need to practice the following basic steps to help prevent the spread of germs to others: -Wash hands thoroughly before and after preparing food, before eating and after using the restroom. -Cover your nose and mouth when coughing or sneezing, and wash your hands to prevent spreading germs to objects like doorknobs and other household items. -Get plenty of rest, eat properly and dress appropriately for the weather. -Minimize time in crowded areas during the flu season, when the risk of exposure to germs increases. -When practical, avoid contact with others if you have the flu.

A6 Perspectives A few sour apples Nick Durling Guest Writer ndurlingtelhup.edu To those who have ever thought Lock Haven University students are a nuisance, the information that you are about to read is not the opinion of the companies and volunteer agencies around Lock Haven, they are strictly mine. However there are facts that I have retrieved from employees at such businesses. There are currently about 4,600 students enrolled Lock at Haven University and we have all been labeled as a drunken minority, or stamped as a place called a "puke bucket" and that is not fair. We have also had the finger pointed at us, saying that we serve no purpose here in Lock Haven and we do no good for this small town. Yes, there are a few that disrupt parts of the community, but that is not all of us. Let me show the town of Lock Haven what students do around the community and how much we actually put back in. I talked to the manager, Maria Boileau, of an organization called Downtown Lock Haven Incorporated, which helps run and put on programs in downtown Lock Haven and she had this to say, " Lock Haven students do a lot especially volunteer work. "About 250 to 300 students volunteer their time each year to help with programs like: clean up down- town Lock Haven, decorate for each holiday, and even give out candy to the children of Lock Haven around Halloween time." So some can trust us to give candy to their children, yet try not to recognize Lock Haven students as part of their community, doesn't that seem a little difficult to wrap your head around? She also had this to say, " If you are going to live in a college town you have to expect some problems, but that's why we have organizations to help fix such problems. However, we have always had more positive relations, than negative relations with Lock Haven Students." Also I got to talk to Howard Wooding, a driver for the fire company down at the Citizens Hose CO. 5 and he said that, the company has four college students that volunteer their time at the fire station. So for those that believe we do not do our share, just keep in mind that students from this university are fighting through fire to save citizens of Lock Haven. Okay so we volunteer, if that's not enough lets looks at some economic aspects then. I went to Dominos to find out some information, because let's face it, it is a huge success in Lock Haven; you can always see a delivery vehicle somewhere. I talked to an employee there who also happens to be a Lock Haven student, Erica Cameridge explained this, "Most of the peo- ple who work here are college students. Also on a Friday and Saturday night Dominos fills about 75-150 university orders, and one bill on average is about thirteen dollars." So on average in two nights college students alone spend about $1345 dollars. Impressive, don't you think? Okay, well everyone eats Pizza so what about somewhere else, I also with Cindi spoke Fitch, a Customer Service Supervisor at Walmart, and she only had one thing to say, " When the university students are here sales definitely go up." Well Walmart is a place where students can get everything they need, so why don't we dig deeper into the roots of America, McDonalds the most famous fast food restaurant, globally. Terri Lauplad, manager, emphasized the importance ofLock Haven college students; especially when it comes to the Late Night menu, that is from 10 p.m. to 3 a.m. She said that about 75% of people during that time frame are college students and with the dollar menu not being available at that time, that makes for a lot of money. That's just three businesses, that's not even all the mom and pop shops. So, I guess we still don't do our part according to some, but if that's not good enough for you, let me tell you a little about Lock Haven In the dispute between Lock Haven residents and the LHU students it is easy to understand both sides. The older generation is less tolerant when it comes to the students drinking and sometimes getting rowdy. I was told by a resident that someone he knows rents to some bars and drink to help LHU students. She unwind. I'm sure no told him that some one sets out with the drunken college stuintention of damaging dents who were rentanyone's property or ing from her caused a causing any trouble in lot of damage to her the community. property.

With all those organizations it is no With coming together the wonder why we have department hope to offer more so much time to drink. efficient and better fire, rescue I did not mention the ambulance services. and that Safe survey Haven has done have I? Let me get right to that. In the year 2009 a total of 2,332 students admitted to drinking on campus, that's less than half. Also that 81.7 % of those students said that they only did it In Mogadishy, Somalia, a for social interaction, British couple who set sail in a and that most of the yacht from the island nation of time that held a cup in Seychelles, are believed to have their hand all night. been hijacked by Somali pirates.

Even we as college students have a perception problem, so don't take it too offensive. Even with these numbers, a look at our college in terms of athletics, for instances, our Division II softball champions. So next time a few college students mess something up or do something wrong, do not take it out on all of us. We are all not drunken slobs and Lock Haven University is not to blame, or to demean.

Changing my pessimistic ways Sarah Cox Perspectives Editor scox@lhup.edu Mahatma Gandhi, once said, "man often becomes what he himself be. believes to If I keep on saying to myself that I cannot do a certain thing, it is possible that I may end by really becoming incapable of doing it. On the contrary, if I have the belief that I can do it, I shall surely acquire the capacity to do it even if I may not have it at the beginning." I am a very negative person. It is just how I am. I have never been a optimistic person, I always imagine the worst outcome in a situation. It can be practically anything, and I will think of the worst possible obstacle to occur. I do not know what impulses cause me to do this often, it just comes naturally. I am the first person to say I cannot do something. It does not even matter if the task is attempted; I will repeatedly say I cannot do it. Even if the task is manageable I will turn it into something far too complex. I honestly believe it is the way my mind works, even though it is unhealthy. With this unhealthy impulse, I will eventually talk myself into this fury because I believe that I cannot do it. This then causes more stress than it is worth and I am a mess by the end of the situation. it Honestly, takes more out of me -- than anything else. I work myself up over nothing. I think it has a lot do with me being a to perfectionist. I want everything to be perfect, and I want it to just fall into place, once something is out of order, it is done to me. Sarah Cox There are days I wake up in the best of moods and I want nothing more than to have a good day, but one tiny mess up causes the rest of the day to be a blur. I refuse to let imperfect things roll off of my back. I take everything so personally and I do not let things go. Often times, I think I should be a history major, because I live for the past. I cannot let experiences that I feel have done me wrong go. I will worry about the outcome, and I will think of different solutions that could have solved the issue better. I dwell, over the simplest of things. Recently, a few friends of mine had decided that enough was enough. We were tired of waking up each morning dread- ing what the day had in store. The past couple of weeks have been rough, with school, social lives, and workour toward ing be the careers. I will admit that first to being positive was the last thing on my mind. No surprise there though. We decided on a pact that consisted of nothing but positive aspects. Our goal is to stay positive for an week. We entire that when agreed times get hard, we will turn to one another to get through it. We are all so close that we know that no matter what happens, we can make it though. With this mindset I truly believed that it would happen. Though this pact seems bullet proof, it is not. It is harder though for me than the others. I am struggling mainly with finding the positive in every situation. I am a believer firm in "everything happens for a reason," but sometimes I wonder why things must be so negative. For instance, I got a test back earlier this week. Accepting that I passed was easy, but getting over the fact that I studied an absurd amount for the grade I received was not so easy. I am the person who always thinks that those who work the most should get the best grades, but since coming to college that theory has been shot. I want to be able to say that I have accepted that I get the grade the professor thinks I deserve, but I can't. I firmly believe that those who work more get rewarded more, not those who don't go to class, don't work on the assignments and don't study. But somehow, those people always pass. I want to be rewarded for the effort I put forth, not the grade at the end of the task. In order for me to turn this negative into a positive, I took a lot of time to reflect on what I could change in order for me to receive a better grade next time. I took that time to better my efforts. With this attempt I hope to get a higher grade next time. I want to be a positive person. I want to be able to wake up every morning and be joyful because I am given a day to mold whichever way I want it to go. I do not want with to live life regrets, I want to act, react, and move on. I do not want to sit around thinking of the comebacks I could have had, or the grade I should have got. I want to be the person that does something and walks away feeling good about my attempts. But it is all in how bad I want to change? I want to change but can I keep this mindset of everything having a positive outcome? Can I take these words given by Mahatma Gandhi and alter my life? Time will tell, and with time I hope to become the best person I can be.

In many families attending college after high school is the only way to go, and for the most part, the children agree, but why? Are they really on a for quest higher knowledge? Or do they just want a place to get away from their parents and drink to their heart's content? In a small college town, like Lock it Haven, seems to be the latter. In the past couple of weekends there have been a numerous amount of parties that have been busted. Students that choose to underage drink know there is a risk factor. They know there is a possibility to get busted and cited. This leads back to the question at hand: why? My argument is that the town of Lock Haven, as well as the university, offer no other options. There's no mall, no skate park, no park, no where for students under the age of 21 to just hang out; except Avenue 209, which is usually packed wall to wall. However, there are at least eight or more bars and beer distributors in the 2.5 radius of town. With those odds it's no wonder drinking is what it comes to. If town added something to do, a hookah bar or a sushi place, or some type of modern shop, besides Walmart, I believe the underage drinking problem would decrease significantly. I know that right now the town of Lock Haven is having trouble with money, which leads me to the question of why the cops are on the prowl for illegal drinking? They know it happens, the professors know it happens, the parents know it happens and obviously busting party after party is doing nothing to stop it. So, why make it into a county wide mission? Nothing will stop underage drinking. Not only because there is nothing to do in Lock Haven, but also because it's ingrained in the college student's psyche. The underage drinking problem in this town is only a problem because the town is making it a problem. The eleven street officers of LHPD can't stop something that is almost tradition by picking on frat houses. Students will drink before they are 21. Instead of trying to end it, perhaps officers could help them do it safely. Many colleges have escort services for those who choose to drink, 21 or under, that ask no questions. Their service brings the students back to wherever they live. This eliminates hazardous walks home and staying over at strange houses. Another way to help avoid incidents, like the one in Penn State last weekend, is for Resident Directors and Assistants to not be threatening. A lot of students are afraid to go back to the dorms because they don't want to be reprimanded by an angry dorm employee, so they stay where they are, which could lead to worse things that being slapped with an underage if it's a house they aren't familiar with. The goal of a police squad is to serve and protect. If LHPD wants to that for Lock Haven University and its students, they should start to act as someone there to help, and not someone to fear. ■■■■■■■■■■■■■ "Studies of facial aging up to the present have largely been observational and subjective," -Loma Linda University Medical Center in California said in a report published by the American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS).

In the past, students have heard creepy stories and have been told of paranormal accounts in the various buildings on campus such as Russell Hall, Sloan, the Stevenson Library and more. Students will be given the opportunity to learn more interesting information about each building and their potential hauntings. The Social Science Club on campus will be holding a Ghost Walk on the 28th, 29th and 30th that tour these said to be haunted buildings, as well as tour Highland cemetery. There will even be a real-life paranormal investigator on the walk. The Ghost Walk is for students and the general public. In order to go on the walk, students are just asked to meet in the lobby of ' !$(EeS iI Mm F * mYi'mW ft Raub at 6:30 p.m. The tour will go on until approximately 9 p.m. It will cost $1.00 to go on the walk and all proceeds go towards Clinton County's Historical Society and the Heisey Museum. The Ghost Walk is one of many activities being held to benefit the Heisey Museum in coming time. From November 2nd through November 20th, the Heisey Museum will be holding a food drive. Anybody who brings in any kind of nonperishable food is eligible for a free tour of the Heisey House. Many Lock Haven students unfortunately do not know of the Heisey Museum and all it has to offer. "We really want to reach out to the students. Many of them believe that there isn't much to do, but in reality there is so much cool stuffthis town has to offer. The history of Clinton County, and Lock Haven alone is unbelievably interesting," said the Heisey Museum curator and resident of the Lock Haven area for 19 years, Lou Bernard. Lou suggested giving tours at different hours to accommodate the normally irregu- II IB I 11 ipj IB" I f II ■■■■■■■■flHfl lar schedule of the average college student. "I really enjoy the students. I wish more of them were aware of what the museum has to offer them. Perhaps we could do later tours if they were requested," said Lou. The Heisey Museum's regular hours are currently 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. on weekdays, and other hours by appointment. However, if tours and general interest in seeing the museum doesn't pick up, these hours may be subject to change due to budget cuts. The current price for a tour for a student with their student I.D. is $2.00. Inside the Heisey House, it is set up the way it would have been in the 1800s. There are many precious artifacts on display, including some from an archaeological dig, which students have helped with. One of the rare items the museum is proud of is an early American flag made by Sarah Wilson, the great granddaughter of Betsy Wilson.

Water Street, the Heisey Museum offers tours for $2 with a student ID. Bentley The Highland Cemetary is located Hall and will be featured as part of the LHU Ghost Walk. Haven has one, which is currently on display. Another great thing the museum has to offer students is the possibility of an internship. "LHU students of various majors may perform an internship for a college credit. They will assist museum staff in the day-to-day operations of the museum, as well as help out with projects like the dig, and they also may create displays and do research. I'll teach the interns how to run a museum and do historic research. They'll often learn things they're not taught in school," said Lou Bernard. The kinds of work students do while participating in an internship at the museum varies. It ranges from day to day research and paperwork and other exciting things. "Over the summer, intern Megan Hansen, who is an LHU senior and History major, helped with our dig. She also accompanied me into some underground tunnels under a local restaurant to get photographs," said Lou. The Heisey Museum is the legacy of Clinton County's history. In addition to tours, the museum will be open for groups to hold meetings and events. Also offered are many educational opportunities including research, community service and volunteering.

Film lifts spirits "Up" Kaeti Kosinuk Staff Reporter kkosinuk@lhup.edu Families and students showed up at Price Auditorium on Saturday, October 24, for the presentation of the heart-warming movie Disney/Pixar "Up." Children and parents alike can all enjoy the sweet humor provided in the critically acclaimed film. This adorable plot is about an elderly balloon Carl salesman, Fredricken (voiced by Ed Asner from 'The Mary Tyler Moore Show") whose zookeeper wife unfortunately passes away. During the early flashbacks, we see that the couple is very happy. They had problems, such as a broken leg and a miscarriage, but they got through it together. Throughout their lives, they had always had a dream oftravebng to the exotic lands where their favorite explorer, Charles F. Muntz, resided. However, they were never financially able to go there. Carl uproots his house using helium balloons in order to adventure to South America and discover his idol explorer and fulfill a promise to his late wife to have adventures. Little does Carl know, a young wilderness explorer, named Russell is hanging on the home's porch for dear life as the house sails away into the sky.

The admired explorer appears friendly, yet uncomfortably mysterious and creepy. The ending of the film is touching and the overall film provides many mature themes such as loneliness, friendship, and undying love. The movie made the young audience giggle and the parents enjoyed quite a few chuckles. Freshman Jess Vines smiled and commented, '"Up' is an emotionally rewarding movie which has the ability to tug at every single one of your heartstrings." "Up" proved to be a movie that parents could enjoy as much their children. This is something many family films are lacking because they draw in the children, but do not have an appealing quality or humor for adult audiences. No matter if it was a parent, child, or student, everyone left feeling happy because of the sweet and poignant animated tale. Did you miss this great movie? It will be released on DVD November 10.

In fact, she absolutely refuses to do it.As she sits down in her bedroom, classroom, or even in her car as she drives around Lock Haven, she thinks of new poems to write. She does this because she never uses the same poem twice for any event, ever. Reynolds has been writing poetry since she first could pick up a pen. For her, it's a way to express herself and let out her feelings. write "I poetry because it's a stress times," reliever at Reynolds said. "I write what I feel, what I think. I write from true experiences, whether it's my experience or someone very close to me." Those experiences are meant to hit home for a number of people, not just for Reynolds or the person that it's about. The poems aren't always about an enlightening topic or something joyous, but at times things that others would be afraid to talk about. "The kind of poetry I like to write is poetry that sends a message, that will get people to think and will make people come up to me afterwards and say, 'Thank you. I needed to hear that,"' Reynolds said. "I don't write poetry or perform for the fame, butfor people who need to be taught a lesson or need to know that there are people going through the same thing they are and that there's help out there." Reynolds' poetry helps to open up the healing process and can be a way for people to feel like there's help if they need it without feeling vulnerable or afraid. One example is her gripping poem, "True Story," a tale about physical and mental abuse a young woman suffers from both men and her own family. "I did not go through that, but someone close to me has and it's her story, translated for other women who went through the same thing," Reynolds said. 'The best reaction I got from that poem was when several women and other poets came up to me and said 'Thank you for sharing that,' and said they think it's time for them to start the healing process." Reynolds enrolled at Lock Haven University in 2005 majoring • in Communication Media. In the semesters to follow, Reynolds minored in theatre, pursuing her ability to act and write poetry to its fullest extent. Reynolds has been involved in various mediums while at Lock Haven. She had her own radio show when she was a sophomore, she performed again on the radio on separate occasions as a disc jockey, and she even was an anchor for the studentrun television program "Eagle Talon TV." In the end, however, Reynolds always comes back to poetry while putting these other adventures aside for now at least. Reynolds doesn't just write for fun in her spare time though, she does it for various reasons. One is the Lock Haven student-group Lyrically Speaking, of which Reynolds became the first female President last year. As Lyrically Speaking's president, Reynolds coordinates events, most of which are poetry-related, throughout the semester. Prior to being president, Reynolds was the Vice President and was involved with this group since her freshman year. According to the group, Lyrically is Lock Speaking Haven's spoken word group that features the "most intelligent and powerful voices on Lock Haven's campus." The members don't just write poetry, but create different themes and exercise their artistic abilities through performances for the community. "Being the first female President of Lyrically Speaking was a great thing," Reynolds said. "Besides, being the first to do anything is usually always a great thing." - Reynolds was the first person in her to family get really into her artistic side, something she still is. Since she was younger and writing, her poetry took a turn for the more serious tone when she turned 18 years old.

Now my blonde, long-haired friend CJ Picard and I would be travel partners for the next 35 days. Other people in the class flew home to the U.S.A. or a different European country in search of an adventure of their own. Until this point in the voyage, our housing was paid for, as well as two meals a day and transportation costs, but CJ and I now had to depend on ourselves for an interesting European experience with a limited budget. Our clothes were still soaked from the bathtubstyle cleaning we had I given them the night before but hey, at least they were clean. Our primary focus on our first homeless morning was to find somewhere we would be able to sleep in the evening, knowing we had to be awake early for a day of traveling to Venice, Italy, for which we already had plane tickets. CJ and I threw our enormous travel backpacks up over our shoulders and went in search of an internet cafe and, ultimately, a hostel. It is simple to find a hostel in Europe, but a cheap and clean one that is a bit more challenging. CJ had previous travel experience all over Asia and knew some helpful routines that would help us. We did indeed find the "Aloha Hostel" so we decided to try it out. ... fl 'mm \\mmm I Tyler Kegolis /Eagle Eye CJ Picard hung their clothes out to dry. Upon reaching the street our hostel was on, I looked up to notice a sign that was supposed to say "HOSTEL" but its broken, missing, or crooked letters made it unreadable an to unknowing person. We figured it out, but this being my first hostel experience and the fact that the French-speaking desk clerk could not understand us, made me a little nervous at first. We eventually managed to book our room, and holding our breath, walked in to find four bunk beds all unoccupied. The hardwood floor tiny room appeared to be clean to the naked eye and didn't smell funny, so we decided we would the spend night. Immediately after our brief room inspection, we found a park where the sun was shining down, so we took advantage of its warm rays and hung out our wet laundry to dry. People were reading in the grass, children were zooming around on pedal bikes and about a dozen little birds were digging around in the grass for worms. I myself was lying in the grass writing in the journal that I had brought with me. Everyone certainly seemed to be feeling alright, except for a man dressed in a dark police uniform who strolled up to us slowly. Surely this had to do with our laundry hanging on the park fence. Not being able to communicate effectively with this gentleman and repeating several times over "desole" (which is "sorry" in French), we began removing our clothes from the fence. "Foreign jail for hanging our clothes out to dry," I thought to myself; this would not be in our best interest. The policeman smiled and slowly walked away from us. We grabbed cheap burgers to eat and headed back to our hostel to relax for the evening. We placed our dry clothes in our big bulky backpacks and rested up for the traveling which would take place the following day. To make things a little easier on our wallets and to ensure us a more interesting adventure, we had signed up for accounts at www.couchsurfing.com before leavfor ing Europe. Couchsurfing.com is a non-profit website designed specifically to network travelers with hosts in over 230 countries or territories in the world. Members create indepth profiles about themselves and include pictures. When a member decides to travel to a particular destination, they search for a possible willing host. From there on, the "couch surfer" and their host message each other back and forth, as many times as they wish, and figure out if they will be a suitable pair. Profiles include positive and negative corn- I lu H ' i ■I ■■■■■■■■■■KlE t^a\mmm Tyler Kegolis / Eagle Eye This broken sign did not deter Tyler or CJ. ments from previously paired people about each other so this gives other members something to base their pairing decision as well. Hosts are encouraged to make the visitors stay with them unique in that they share something with them, whether it is an interest or a cultural experience. Through we met a man named Massimo who lived a short five-minute direct train ride from Venice, Italy. Massimo's profile was unique. He had previously hosted over 400 people from over 20 countries and had nearly perfect positive feedback from every surfer or host he encountered. This number was much greater than other profiles. Everything seemed Couchsurtuing.com, to be perfect except Massimo's "unique experience" that we would share, which was wrestling. His profile did list he was an experienced "judo wrestler," but the entire thing just seemed to be a bttle bit strange. After messaging Massimo several times, we came to the conclusion that although maybe unique, our stay with him would be a safe and memorable experience. We decided weeks before our arrival to let Massimo know the exact days we wished to stay and he accepted our requests. Little did we know at the time, the last night we were spending in our Paris hostel would be the last restful one for awhile, and Massimo, well, he was definitely unique. B7 15 minutes of summertime fame LHU student featured on Ellen Dianna Haines Guest Writer Wake up; go to class; Study; read; work; .study; write a paper; lied; repeat. It's a tightly packed schedule, one that most college stu- Z dents can relate to; not Reaving much room to „shove a granola bar in mouth, let alone a toothbrush. But Lock Haven University sen- ior Brandy Peifer is not complaining a bit; not this year, at least. "I can say for the first time in my college career I am appreciating the busy schedule," said Peifer, "I might even go as far as saying I enjoy it." What's with the change in attitude, you ask? Good question. After a college loan denial left this Communications major so close, yet so far away from walking across the stage of her college graduation she decided to put her talents to use and find an alternative source of tuition money. That source just happened to be an awardwinning talk show host named Ellen Degeneres. "I'm a big fan of her show and I also happen to be a contest junky," said Peifer as she feverishly typed a report on her laptop, "I had been watching a "stimulus package" giveaway she had been doing on her show and a light bulb went off." And what a bright light bulb it was. "There were thousands of entries and emails from people in dire need of money, I just needed to find a way to make mine ' stand out from the rest," Peifer explained. One day later a call from a producer of the Degeneres "Ellen Show" left her breathless. Peifer had wowed the producer enough with her Ramen noodle eating, college dreamscrashing email to score a second look. "I just remember my hands shaking as I waved all my roommates into the room for support", recalled Peifer, "I had to really get the point across that I needed this money more than anyone else in the nation; it wasn't an easy job." But after the producer called again the next day, and the day after that, she knew she had to be saying something right. "They kept making me practice screaming on the phone as if Ellen Degeneres was telling me I won," she laughed, pulling out the newspaper articles from the event, "It got a little irritating to practice winning when they kept telling me I only had a one-in-a-million chance." The only thing Brandy Peifer didn't realize was that she was a one-in-a-million girl. Just finishing up her junior year and waiting for a call for yet another interview with the producer of the show, Brandy Peifer decided to get some cleaning done. "It was just another day and I had a lot of stuff to get done, so I decided to start by cleaning the bathroom," said Peifer. "Just another day" turned into a completely different story as soon as the Tim tone Mcgraw ring began to play from her cell phone. "I answered the phone and knew right away that it wasn't the voice of the producer I had been talking to all reminisced week," "As Peifer, soon as the person on the other line said 'this is Ellen Degeneres' I dropped the mop and didn't know whether to be mortified that I smelled like toilet cleaner or scream instead." Well, she decided to scream instead. Cameras, people and a cash machine flooded West Church Street, causing the people of the small town to wonder what brought a national television show to Lock Haven, Pennsylvania; The answer, a college girl who took a chance. 'The rest of the day was a blur of money and phone calls, my didn't mom even believe me at first," recalled Peifer. Of course, no one could blame her; it would be hard to believe that your daughter had just been the star of a nationally-aired television show. "I knew that she had signed up and had been going through the process of being interviewed," said Brenda Gilligbauer, Brandy's mother, "but, she made it sound like a slim chance she would win, I thought she was just pulling my leg." knew Everyone Brandy was not pulling their leg when the show aired nation-wide the next morning. Newspapers, news stations and relatives flooded her cell phone wanting to get the story. "WNEP traveled - A & E P Pennsylvania, Meet Ellen's Big Stimulus Package 2.26/ Screen shot courtesy of YouTube Senior Brandy Peifer receives recognition and rewards for writing in to The Ellen Degeneres Show on ? two and a half hours just to interview me," said Peifer, "it was so strange that I could be the center of any news story." Brandy Peifer did not just get to be the center of the news but also got to be the writer. "It was pretty cool that the Lock Haven Express did a story on me and then asked me to write a story myself, said Peifer. "Looks good in my portfolio." At the end ofthe day Peifer walked away with $1,500 in gift cards to Old Navy, Sears, and Target, a mountain bike, a gift basket full of dog food from Ellen Degeneres's own brand of Halo dog food and $3,000. "Sometimes I still can't believe it happened to me of all people," said Peifer, "but it is something I'll remember forever and it is a nice conversation starter when people walk up to me and say 'hey I saw you on TV.'" After all of the buzz and the cameras, Peifer is now a few weeks into her senior year at Lock Haven University and has her sights set on graduating next spring. "All the money has gone to my tuition, all the gift cards have been spent, the only thing that is still around the house that even hints that the Ellen Degeneres show stopped by on that Thursday in May is the nine bags of Halo dog food still left over.' she said, "and Bo loves the food. He stands by his bowl in the morning waiting to scarf it down". So, life is back to normal and Peifer's 15 minutes of fame have expired, which is in no way a bad thing for the student. "I'm taking as many classes as possible and getting the most I can get out of my last year here," said Peifer as she packed her bag and got ready to head to her third class of the day. "I can definitely say that the experience made me appreciate a college education a lot more and I'm glad it happened bui I'm oven happier to be hack to classes, believe it or not." This year Brandy Peifer plans to take everything one day at a time, concentrate on school, work and keep herself busy. "Sometimes Pm so tired when I wake up in the morning and just want to sleep all day." said Peifer making her way to the front door of her apartment. "But then I think of how I almost wasn't able to come back to college and the reason I am still here on my way to graduating." And with that. Brandy walked outside and made her way toward campus.
