Disorientation

The week leading up to graduation was filled with boozy activities to give us all one last chance to create memories of our two years together. Although I didn't participate in every event, I still had a busy week. In addition to packing up and preparing for graduation (and all the related guests), I took part in the following:

Graduation banquet
Everyone looked sassy in their cocktail attire for our final sit-down dinner at the alumni center with speeches from professors, the dean, and fellow students followed by an after-party at Annie's West.

Party barge on Lake Travis
It was a beautiful day to be on "The Ark" but after nearly 6 hours I was ready to get home. 4 hours trapped on a boat with nothing but friends, tunes, and booze can never amount to anything good.

Ferris Bueller quote-along at Alamo Drafthouse
I won my ticket to this during the annual legacy campaign so it was nice to not have to pay for an event. Alamo Drafthouse is always fun for me. Movies, food, and drink = fun.

Salt Lick BBQ
We ended the same way we began -- with BBQ from the Salt Lick out in Driftwood, TX. Definitely not my favorite BBQ but a fun place and it was cool to meet people's families and enjoy one last evening together before graduation. Afterward, B and I headed back to Alamo Drafthouse for the 90s One Hit Wonder Sing Along. That was super fun!
