Senior Send-off

Lowell House on the Feast of Ste. Judith

I'm alive.

Today was senior send-off, also known as the gauntlet. A tradition in which each senior has to go against every member of the club (7 seconds each), plus alumni, both resident and visiting (for however long the alum wants to keep you suffering).

I refuse to relive the experience, but in any case, I survived! The sun is out, the day is warm, and even if my throat still feels raw from kiai, all is well with the world.

Happy Hikago Day, everyone!

Yours &c.

Congratulations~♥ O-omg, that senior tradition is so cool and now someone should make a HikaGo fic with that premise but how, how?!

Thanks! Er..."cool" is not the word that I would use to refer to the gauntlet, but heh, I am glad that I did it. In a sort of, "what doesn't kill you makes you stronger" kind of way. I think the tradition is pretty standard in Japan, so if Zoe ever writes the kendo!AU...

*laughs* I'm a sucker for punishment, it seems! Then if Zoe will be doing it, of course, we're gonna pressure Zoe to do it~♥

CONGRATS! anticipation is worse then the actual thing, no?
enjoy your night. you deserve it.

:D

Yes, although the actual thing came very close to being nearly as bad. XD

You'll be, er, proud(?) to hear that I got very drunk and actually threw up. >_>;; Well, I suppose it had to happen at least once before I graduated. Brian felt bad and agreed to get drawn on although he wasn't anywhere near drunk yet, and we all attacked him with Sharpies. Howard took photos, so you can add it to your collection.
