GRADitude 2010

So I am really getting into this whole blogging thing. Makes me wonder why I did not start it sooner. My life after undergraduate has been nothing but fun. Eating, sleeping, hang out and few interviews here and there, and lastly trying to stay active!

Last night was GRADitude 2010. It was a “party” thrown by the York University’s Alumni’s office. It was meant for the 2010 graduates to mingle and make connection. Beside the free drinks and free food, I paid 8$ in parking just to see my friends.

The whole notion of networking did not work. The environment did not make it possible to network. I already knew the entire Alumni’s present there from York. How about getting some big and popular York Alumin’s like Dan Levy or Jay Manuel? Some girl missed the whole “cocktail attire” part of the invitation (Prichila Kirubakaran noticed) and wore a maxi dress. Not enough places to sit. Music sucked big time. Maybe a photo booth not a weird video flip book? And there were more pictures of Antony Permesurdin and Abbas Musaji (not graduating this year) on the slide show than of Prichila, Feena Sattaur, and me.

For a while Feena and I thought that the Alumni’s office was creeping through our Facebook account but it was Prichila who sent in those pictures.

But good food. Very Canadian with a poutine station. Signature drink – the red lion – I hated it! And endless supply for finger food. AMAZING and very cute cupcakes.

Over all, it was a good but next year is going to better and BIGGER.

I did get to meet many people whom I did not say proper goods byes too (my many acquaintances at York). So that was a good thing.

But most importantly cupcakes were amazing.

Enjoy the pictures. We all managed to wear black (no planning) and we a very good looking group.
