Vote for Carissa!

Hey ladies!
Exciting news--I have been chosen as one of 18 finalists in a world-wide search for the world's most innovative thinkers to participate as torchbearers in the Beijing 2008 Olympic Torch Relay. The winner is chosen by online voting at:

http://WWW.LENOVO.COM/TORCH

or

http://newthinkers.lenovo.com


Once you're on the site, find my video, and vote for me! (they only gave us ONE WEEKEND to make the video, so it's not quite Hollywood-style, but I think my vid has a cute message!) You can vote as many times you like (although a lot of people have said the site only lets you vote once every other day or so..).

You don't have to register to vote, but if you do, you will be entered into a random drawing for one of three Lenovo-designed Cloud of Promise Beijing 2008 Olympic Torches. You can check out this amazing torch at the Lenovo torch site as well.

The voting just started, and runs through October 24, 2007, so get out and vote like a maniac! Pease, vote often and feel free to pass this along to friends and colleagues. Also feel free to post it up on any boards or forums you participate in. The competition is strong and I need all the support I can get.

I look forward to representing my country, my family and friends (and Alpha Xi! and Delaware! and DC! and Emory!) as a torchbearer in the Beijing 2008 Olympic Torch Relay.

Thank you so much for your support!
