proud to be a wahoo

12-Mar-06

Just about every other school in Virginia likes to bash UVA kids for being “pretentious” and “snobs”. In other words, they get called out for thinking they are better than everyone else. Well, if you went to the school in Virginia with the most stringent admissions requirements, best overall athletic program, most beautiful campus and [...]

frisbee golf memories

03-Feb-06

Walking home late at night today, I saw a couple of people playing frisbee golf (aka frolf) by Kresge. My mind raced back to first year, when Paul and I sat on that picnic table on a random night until the paper boy came, talking about everything and nothing all at once, including the awesome [...]

being spaced out

02-Feb-06

Being especially spaced out this week, I procrastinated a lot and started reading the Cavalier Daily again. Before last summer, I used to read this once a day, just to keep on top of things happening back at ol’ Virginia. So what did I learn this week from the cav daily? 1) Being my narcissistic [...]

quotes

08-Dec-05

Instead of studying for my french test, I started to look through all of the folders in My Documents on my desktop. Stumbled on some priceless quotes from those good ol’ eschool days: Spence: i think engineering frats have gender confusion because the girls are still considered brothers Brad: but really it’s only the girls [...]

strangers in the streets

06-Dec-05

Tonight, while navigating the backstreets of downtown Boston/financial/district/”I didn’t really know where I was between Downtown Crossing and Park Street”, I got approached FOUR times for directions from random people. Was it a coincidence? Four times is a lot of times in 10-15 minutes. Do I, in general, look less intimidating and more approachable than [...]

wahoowa

27-Nov-05

While traveling this Thanksgiving weekend, in typical wahoo fashion, I randomly ran into a fellow Virginia alum. She was even a fellow Jeffie. I really do wonder how it is that all us wahoos keep running into each other. Other instances of run-ins this year documented here and here. I also caught a bug while [...]

uva is larger than life

23-Oct-05

I keep running into UVA kids everywhere. For how huge that school is, and how varied its graduates are, I sure as heck run into a lot of people from there. In addition to the episode over the summer, I ran into a girl I know on my most recent plane trip down to DC. [...]

Bigger than life

28-Jun-05

There is something about Northern Virginia that just exudes UVA. Visiting Ryan this past weekend in Clifton made me realize that there are a whole lot of us wahoos over there. Following Ryan’s brother, girlfriend, and various cousins & relatives out and about Saturday night, we ran into random UVA kids, some friends, others simply [...]

missing virginia

24-Jun-05

My friend Mike and I decided to show our respective school prides by wearing Hopkins and UVA tshirts every day this week. He pooped out on me starting yesterday, claiming that some of his Hopkins shirts were dirty. I made it through the whole week, and really when I took a look at all of [...]
