Back to the ‘Burbs
Hey hey,
Last week Wednesday marked a day in history for us fellows. It was our first trip back to Haveford College as bona-fide alumnae/i (had to throw in some latin. Actually, upon thinking about it if bona fide is going to modify alumnae/i, it should be bonae/i fideles…hmm I’ll leave it alone). We attended the non-academic registration for the Haverford College Class of 2013.

That’s right, every freshman got their keychain, ID card, and 30-second (more or less, depending on how in a rush they were and how energetic they seemed) description of what Haverford House is, what we plan to do, and a map of Philadelphia. It was a great success, and great to see old friends as well. Even nicer was that we had some animal crackers to feed us on the ride back to West Philadelphia (just kidding).
Customs people doing their thing
I’d like to end with a pita bread shape that we saw at dinner last night (courtesy of Joe’s mom who gave him the recipe for pita bread), via Mary’s plate and Sarah M’s blueberry:
I’ll let people guess what it is, but that blueberry is a peninsula. That’s the only clue I’ll give.
Ciao for now,
Sarah D.
post scriptum (I’m done with the latin for today, really)-for Haverford students who wanted a handout and didn’t get it/misplaced it, we will have more this THURSDAY FROM 8-10 AT THE STUDENT ACTIVITITES FAIR! And we’ll post it afterwards.
