I thought Ely and Merci had some good suggestions...

And as for lame or embarrassing, does it really matter? My motto was always - whatever gets the job done. LOL. I demonstrated how to make a pizza for one of my speeches for crying out loud. haha.

Key is you are going to UC Santa Cruz (yes?) so get your grade and run like hell. :)

I hope you came up with something. *hugs you*
