ass about face

i am too excited to go chronologically or in any other order so i will start with the first thing that comes to mind and work off from there...
today i graduated, though as i write this i did so yesterday. i have just come from the most amazing dinner with good friends, a certain someone and some unexpected others. we went to a beautiful restaurant to celebrate the end of an era of student life and celebrate the beginnings of new things to come. in honor of this momentous occasion we went to a superb place with a 1930's feel. big booths, live jazz, excellent opulent delicacies and fantastic service. i had dinner with friends from uni, a friend who has recently returned home and some who i was at school with. weirdly we were seated next to a few who we never knew would be there to begin with...
we danced to frank senatra et al and the jitterbugs that existed earlier when shaking the chancellors hand seemed but a distant memory, and the topic of a later blog.
we have all made promises to stay in touch and i hope we do.
i feel this is different to school in that i don't think i will need constant contact to remain friends with these people. we have climbed the everest of academia together which will bind us no matter how long until we meet again...

congrats to all of class of 2006
