from Princeton

It's pretty much just pictures this time. This weekend was called Reunions, when all the alumni come the weekend before graduation. There are receptions, dinners, and the "P-rade" when all the classes parade in wearing class jackets, ending with the 08 class.

Oh, and the last rugby game, students v. alumni. The alums barely won, in the last minute of the 14-min game. Here's Rach on the sidelines in full gear:
and the team, plus some alumni:
all ready for the P-rade in class jacket and glasses, and rugby jersey:
Mom is one of the few not in orange and black. I told her she looks like Carrie in this picture.
requisite brother/sister shot:
The oldest class to parade through was 1925. Meaning they were about 105 years old. All the classes until the 1940s or so came in golf carts. So for at least an hour or so it was a parade of some pretty old people. That was interesting, but I think that if I were in the parade, I would feel like people were just gawking at how old I looked, rather than watching a parade. Anyway, the class of somewhere in the 1950s were carrying some funny signs. My favorite:
And I was a long way away, but i really wanted a picture of this:
Sick.

So that's all for now. Tomorrow and Tuesday are the actual graduations, then we're done. I fly out in a week, if my visa gets here on time. It's supposed to be mailed on Wednesday, so it should just barely make it. Then I'll be posting pictures from nine time zones away!
