last night, we members of the liberal arts honors program here at pc had a lovely little shindig over in '64 hall. our "convocation ceremony," they called it. several of my classmates used it as just another excuse to get smashed. on pc's dime. yes, at this lovely little soiree of la creme de la creme, as we rubbed noses with top university professors from across the nation, several under 21 year olds openly carried wine glasses and sipped not-so-slowly. their laughs grew louder as the evening wore on, and their cheeks slowly turned the same tinge of deep red as their rather dry beverage o' choice for the evening.
i myself opted for the free diet coke (i have my loyalties and a bit of self respect left, thankyouverymuch!) but i just thought it was so hilarious to see my classmates pregaming for their pregaming for midnight madness alongside the president of the school and his constituents. i don't even want to know what everyone looked like upon finally 'gaming'!!!!!!
after the lovely receiving banquet, i dashed in the rain and dodged the puddles that are all the fuck over this campus and took shelter in 311 mcdermott with liv, kev, will, ben, jeff, nikki, and some other random people. when it got to be a bit rowdy (kids were literally falling down multiple flights of stairs and crying/banging their heads against cement walls and loudly fighting with exgirlfriends) i retreated to cunningham to keep sober steve company. i had my first taste of grain mixed with pink lemonade (only a few sips because that stuff is no good, no good at all). i remember shawshank redemption came on. goooooooood film.
alright, allie's coming over in a bit to help me get cowgirl-ified before hitting the hodown in will's quad with kev, jeff, and ben. (olivia is at umass tonight - i miss my roomie!!!)
yeehaw.
