I don't know what it is about getting all dressed up, but it always makes me happy. We all put on the finest thing we could find in our closets and headed off to enjoy one last OLSPIF auction. The auction itself was pretty lame this year, but hanging out with the girls eating cheese and crackers and taking pictures was a blast! It's sad to think that we don't really have another reason to get dressed up, minus graduation, but that's different since we'll mostly be spending it with our families. After this it's just months of bar prep and bar related anxiety and panic attacks. Lame.
People at the auction seemed especially plastered this year. Maybe it was a good thing that there weren't as many lawyers and judges from the community in attendance. I don't drink and I've noticed these past few years that my patience with drunk people has grown increasingly short. It's funny for a few minutes, listening to people tipsily make fools of themselves, but then when you have someone yelling in your face, attempting to telling you a story they've already attempted to tell you two or three times before, it gets a little old. By the end of the night, the sound of glasses breaking rang throughout the law school, making me wonder why the people that organize the auction ever thought that drunk people and breakables would end well.
And how do you end a night spent in 4 inch heels and a super fitted dress? Taco Bell cheese quesadilla, comfy sweats, and Stephen Colbert in a Canadian Royal Mountie uniform (I should clarify, I was watching the Olympics...this isn't some weird fantasy of mine). Perfection.
