Velvet Verbosity

The purpose of a blog seems self-evident. Don’t call me on my narcissistic tendencies.

It Has Begun…

This morning is the Ivy Day Parade…a Smith College tradition. “Junior ushers lead a parade through campus, carrying vines of ivy (laurel vines) to be planted by the departing seniors as a symbol of their lifelong connection to the college. ” Then we seniors will line the street, and Smith Alumnae will march through us by class year, led by a marching band.

It is quite a sight to see the alumnae who range in ages from their 20’s to 80+. All lively, and still very connected to their Alma Mater.

I do love Smith.

    Thanks everyone…it is now over, my degree sits on my desk, and it all seems like a dream, those four years.

    On to new adventures now!
