Funny People: Fuzzy Dice

“I went over to her room and I had this whole bag of activities we could do: we could do makeovers, we could do facials … and then I pulled out a magazine and said, ‘Or, we could write a murder letter by cutting out letters!’ ” No, this is not a fan-madesequeltoMean Girls. This is Fuzzy Dice, one of Princeton’s three improvisation comedy troupes, during downtime. Executive directorPaulina Orillac ’17(responsible for the conspiracy quoted above) said that part of what distinguishes Fuzzy Dice as a group is its emphasis on the social atmosphere, which she described as “chemically unbalanced” — in the fondest way possible. “We try to become really close-knit, we try to get to know each other outside of the rehearsal room,” Orillac said.“I think that’s something really special about Fuzzy Dice as a group, especially in Princeton.” On the more technical side, artistic director Angad Anand ’16 added that while all three groups on campus are friendly and supportive of each other, each has its own style.

Fit Tips: 8 Tips for Your Morning Workout

Ah, the morning workout. Those “morning people” are such overachievers, aren’t they? Chances are, if you’re a night owl, you can barely fathom the thought of getting out of your bed in the morning, let alone dragging your butt to the gym to exercise. As someone who has dabbled in the super-early morning workout (5–7 a.m.), as well as the normal-early morning workout (8–10 a.m.), I will say that neither is an easy feat, especially in college, where rehearsals, events and study groups last until the wee hours of the morning.
