Not sure I would have gone with the Ninja Turtles though.........
This is so me, hahaha
This one is appropriate after watching the last Jurassic Park movie.....
I attended the ring ceremony at UNM on Wednesday to pick up my class ring. Part of the program is to dip your hand into a bowl of red dye before you pick up your ring. That stuff was thick, gelatinous and cold ~ it was like putting your hand in a bowl of clotted blood ~ gross. There are businesses that give you a 20-25% discount on stuff (mostly food) if you go in with a red hand. It's one of those silly school traditions that keeps going despite itself.
I also drove to UNM yesterday to pick up tickets for folks who will attend graduation ~ family, friends, etc. Only to discover that the person handling that won't be back in the office until next Tuesday. Someone else in the office covered it for me though, so at least I won't have to drive there again. Typical. On Friday the campus is usually pretty quiet. But on Thursday my class mates were complaining that they had trouble finding parking spots ~ next week is finals week so everyone came for the review. Also typical.
Love, 365
I don't think I'd have done the red hand thing. I have always hated the stupid school spirit crap... drives me insane.
ReplyDeleteI hope you don't melt over summer. I despise riding around with my windows down. Ughhhhh.
Oh, I thought it was fun (except for the dye ~ it really was gross). You could sense the excitement and happiness of those soon to be graduates. Sure, the speeches by the Alumni association were trite and boring....and they did feed us cake and fruit afterward. Nothing wrong with free food!
