I'm taking Music in New York as my last humanities class as well as last class of undergrad ever.

It still gives me chills to say that!

It's a 3 week class, and probably the most relaxed easy class I've ever taken, but I sort of anticipated that from the title.

So as part of my class we were required to go to this middle eastern concert/venue/restaurant/bar thing in the village friday night.  I brought Nate and Ashley and it was quite the experience.  We listened to bands from Bulgaria and Syria, ate lamb skewers, cous cous, and the best baklava I have ever had.  

Last night Nate and I drove out to Long Island, where the firehouse Nate volunteers at had a giant dinner/dance.  We got there, it was nice- they had an open bar, a sushi bar, fruit, meats, pasta. 

And because we are poor college students, Nate and I took full advantage of the free food and "stuffed our faces" in the most polite way possible for about 2 hours.  Right when we were about ready to go home they called everyone into another room.

A full dining room with elaborate place settings and menus for a 3 course meal!

We had no idea.

Then we then ate prime rib. 

And Nate got an award for midshipman who went on the most ambulance calls in the last year.

Now I am back at work and back to job searching and trying to orchestrate my wide open life that begins two weeks from now!
