St. Norbert College

I'll give you 3 hints to guess where I will be this weekend:

1 - think 1998-2002
2 - think fighting green knights, Abbey bar, Saturday football, crisp fall leaves, dormatories
3 - think beer

Did you guess?  That's right folks, 10 year college reunion/homecoming with my besties from SNC!!  Bring it.  It will be just like 2002 again.  Except we're in our mid-thirties and don't all live in the same house (or state, or country for that matter).  And we have mortgages and SUVs.  And the 9 of us have 12 kids and 2 baking.  And we probably won't make it to the after parties with red solo cups.  And we probably won't get kegs and eggs.  And we don't own pleather pants.  And if I had to re-live one night of college partying I'd probably die.  But I'm willing to overlook all of that and be those people that the current 20-22 year olds see in the old college bars and laugh at.  I could care less.  Because little do they know that in 10 years they'll spend an entire year planning their pilgrimage back to DePere, WI to re-live their glory days, jumping at the chance to be carefree and responsiblity-less for a couple of days.  And they'll get their hair cut for the first time in 8 months in preparation.  And they'll wear matching t-shrits too (or maybe not, probably just us!).  Jacks, Shan, A, Nik, Mare, Tams, Stephy and Lizzie - see you tomorrow :)
