On Saturday, I've signed up for a morning lecture and an afternoon class; the first will be given by Attorney General Eric Holder and the second is a continuation of one of our Core courses and we'll be discussing King Lear and government. (Why yes, I am a total nerd! Learning is FUNdamental, you know.) In the evening, we have a wine tasting and then a cocktail reception followed by dinner and dancing under the stars in front of the library. A bunch of friends have signed up for this, too, and, since we won't all be stuck on a boat with an open bar and there'll be a lot going on, it'll be a great chance to catch up with kids I liked in college but have since lost touch with in a totally escapable way. I can't wait!
I've packed two outfits for Saturday night and I'm not sure yet which I'll wear, but if I had a blue frock like the one below... well, what better time to dress in school colors? This would be a perfect outfit for the evening's activities. If Reunion really is anything like Senior Week, the heels will be off by 9pm but the pashmina will keep me warm as the New York air cools and the skirt will be perfect for twirling.
Now, to remember the rest of our fight song...
(If you've been to any college reunions before, give me your suggestions for how to navigate everything gracefully! I'm sure I'll need all the help I can get, especially once the champagne starts flowing.)
